The branch pipe 3 is connected by uncovered and fluid from the train-pipe flows means of the passages 4 and 5 in the casing 1 through the feed-groove 29, around the piston, and the passage 6 in the cap? with the triplethrough the groove 30, into the chamber 19 50 valve piston-chamber 8, in which the tripleand through the opening 20 into the auxiliary valve piston 9 is fitted to work. A portion 10 reservoir. The main slide-valve is then in position to close the port 31 in the valve-seat, which opens into the brake-cylinder passage 32, and the cavity 33 in the main slide-valve connects the port 34 in the valve-seat with the usual exhaust-port 35,leading to the nozzle 35, through which it opens to the atmosphere, and thereby puts the brake-cylinder passage 32 in communication with the atmosphere. At the same time the port 36 in the valve-scat also communicates with the exhaust-port 35 through the cavity in the slide-valve.
The stem 37 of the supplemental piston 27 extends upward through a passage formed alongside of the valve-chamber 19 and is provided on its upper end with a piston or cappiece 38, which projects through an opening 39 into the valve-chamber 19 above the pin 40 on the arm 42 of the lever 15.
A passage 43 through the main valve, which is adapted to register with the port 31 in the valve-seat in making service applications of the brakes, is cont-rolled by the graduatingvalve 16.
The port 36 in the valve-seat opens into a transverse passage 44 which is normally in communication with the atmosphere through a passage 45 formed in a screw-plug 46. A valve 47, (shown in Fig. 2,)which controls the passage 45, is provided with a stem 48, to the inner end of which a piston 49 is secured. The stem 48 passes through a guide 50, which is held in place by the screw-plug 40, and a spring 51 bears at one end against the guide 50 and at its other end against the piston 49 and tends to unseat the valve and hold the piston at the extremity of its movement to the right. The piston 49 is fitted in a cylindrical chamber 52, which communicates with the brake-cylinder passage 32 through a passage 53, so that the piston 49 is at all times exposed on one side to the pressure in the brake-cylinder.
'When a comparatively slight or gradual reduction of train-pipe pressure is made, for the purpose of effecting a service application of the brakes, the triple-valve piston 9 will make its full stroke to the right, the supplemental piston 27 will remain in the position shown in Fig. 1, the shoulders 17 on the stem of the triple-valve piston will come in contact with the shoulder 18 on the main valve 12, the main valve will be moved to the right until the port 43 in the main valve registers with the port 31 in the valve-seat, the ports 34 and 35 will be closed, and the port 36 will be out off from communication with these ports, but the valve will not be moved far enough to the right to connect the port 36 with the port 41.
Before the shoulders 17 on the pistonsten1 come in contact with the shoulder 18 on the valve 12 the graduating-vali 'e 16 will uncover the passage 43, and when the passage 43 registers with the port 31 fluid under pressure will flow from the auxiliary reservoir through the passage 43, port 31, and passages 32 and 21 to the brake-cylinder, and the brakes will be applied. \Vhen the brake-cylinder pressure acting 011 one side of the piston 49 is suf'ficient to compress the spring 51 the exhaustvalve 47 will be closed by the movement of the piston 49.
Since the supplemental piston 27 and the plate or cap'piece 38 on the stem of the supplemental piston remain stationary when a service application is made, the lever 15 will be free to turn on its pivot, and the lower arm 54 of the lever 15 will be swung to the left about-its point of support by contact. with the shoulder 18 on the valve 12.
"When a comparatively great and rapid reduction of train-pipe pressure is made, such as is necessary to cause an emergency application of the brakes, the triple-valve piston 9 will be moved to the limit of its stroke to the left, the supplemental piston 27 will be moved downward its full stroke until it seats on the gasket 55, and the plate or cap-piece 38 will be moved down far enough to prevent any upward movement of the pin 40 on the lever 15 if the supplemental piston makes its stroke before the triple-valve piston moves. If the triple-valve piston moves before the supplemental piston the arm 42 of the lever 15 and the pin 40 will at first be moved upward by the contact of the arm 54 with the shoulder 18, and when the supplemental piston moves downward the plate or cap-piece 38 will push the pin 40 and the arm 42 down and lock the lever in the position shown in Fig. 1. The lower arm 54 will be held in contact with the shoulder 18 on the valve 12, so as to hold the valve against the shoulder 1 l on the stem 10, the lost motion between the shoulder 18 on the valve and the shoulders 1.7 on the stem will be taken up, and when the piston 9 reaches the end of its stroke the valve 1.2 will be in position to close the ports 34 and 05, to open the port 31 by moving to the right of the port 31, and to put the port 41 in communication with the port 36 through the cavity 33 in the main valve.
As the exhaust-valve 47 (shown in Fig. 2) is normally held open by the spring 51 the fluid under pressure in the passage 23 will escape through the port 41, cavity 33, port 36, and passages 44 and 45 to the atmosphere when the main valve is in the emergencyposition. The reduction of pressure in the passage 23 will permit the pressure in the trainpipe to unseat the check-valve 22, and fluid under pressure will flow from the train-pipe through the passage 23, port 41, cavity 33, port so, and passages 44 and 45 to the atmosphere. At the same time fluid under prcssure will flow from the auxiliary reservoir through the port 31 and passages 32 and 21 to the brake-cylinder, and the exhaust-port.
45 will remain open until the pressure in the brake-cylinder and in the passages 32 and 53 and in the chamber 52 on one side of the piston 49 is sufficient to compress the spring 51 and close the exhaust-port 45. \Vhen the valve 47 closes, the pressure in the passage IIO 44, cavity 33, and passage 23 will tend to quickly equalize with the pressure in the train-pipe, and before equalization takes place voir and brake-cylinder pressures are equal-- ized, and the brakes are fully applied.
By properly proportioning the areas of the piston 49 and the valve 47 and the resistanceof the spring 51, the valve 47 may be made to close when any desired pressure is obtained in the brake-cylinder.
As shown in Fig. 2 the area of the valve 47 is substantially the same as the area of the piston 49, and the pressure of the fluid in the passage 44 has little or no tendency to close the valve 47 When the valve 47 is closed, if
fluid from the brake-cylinder should leak around the piston 49, it will have no tendency to open the valve, even if the pressure in the passage 44 should equal the pressure in the brake-cylinder. The valve 47 will remain closed until the main valve is moved into the release position by an increase of train-pipe pressure sufficient for that purpose, and will not open until the brake-cylinder pressure is reduced sufficiently by exhaust to the atmosphere through the usual exhaust-passage 35 to permit the spring 51 to unseat the valve 47.
In Fig. 3 of the drawings I have shown a modification of my improvement in which the closed end 49 of a tube 56 takes the place of the piston 49, (shown in Fig. 3,) and the exhaust-valve 47 a is formed on the other end of the tube. A spring 58 within the tube 56 bears at one end against the closed end of the tube and at its other end against a guide 57 which is formed on the screw-plug 46 and fits in the tube 56.
It will be seen that in both of the constructions shown in Figs. 2 and 3, the exhaustvalve and the piston connected thereto are balanced so far as any fluid pressure in the passage 44 is concerned, and that the pressure of the fluid in that passage does not tend either to open or to close the valve. This is important on account of the difliculty of fitting the piston 49 or 49 so that it will move easily and at the same time not permit leakage around it from the brake-cylinder. In the construction shown, fluid from the brakecylinder may leak around the piston 49 or 49" until the pressure of the fluid in the passages between the check-valve 22 and the exhaustvalve 47 equalizes with the pressure in the brake-cylinder, but the valve 47 or 47 will still be held to its seat by the pressure in the brake-cylinder, and the effect of the pressure in the brake-cylinder acting on the right-hand side of the piston 49 or 49 will be substantially the -same as it would be if there were no pressure in the passage 44.
In recharging the train-pipe for the purpose of releasing the brakes, if the triple-valve piston and the main valve 12 should not move quickly into the release position and the high pressure in the train-pipe should then open the check-valve, the passages 23 and 44 and the cavity 33 in the main valve will be charged with fluid under a higher pressure than that in the brake-cylinder without opening the valve 47 or 47, and there will be no escape of fluid from the train-pipe to the atmosphere.
It will be obvious that either form of the exhaust-valve device shown in the drawings may be exployed in connection with other forms of release-valve or with an independent release-valve, and that my improvement is not limited in its application to a device in which the main valve of the triple-valve device acts as a train-pipe release-valve.
I claim as my invention and desire to secure by Letters Patent 1. The combination,in a fluid pressure brake apparatus, of a release valve for locally releasing fluid under pressure from the train pipe, a passage controlled by the release valve, and an exhaust valve for closing the passage which is balanced as to fluid pressure in the passage, substantially as set forth.

4. In an automatic fluid pressure brake apparatus, the combination, with a release valve for locally releasing fluid under pressure from the train pipe, of an exhaust valve device for a limiting the discharge of fluid from the train pipe which is inoperative, and unaffected, by the fluid which is released from the train pipe, and which is operated by the pressure in the brake cylinder to cut off the discharge from the train pipe,substantially as set forth.
