The invention relates to a brake with an auxiliary braking function. The brake comprises a brake disc, a left friction plate, a right friction plate, a caliper assembly, a brake piston, a fixing bracket, an electromagnetic coil set, an electromagnetic chuck assembly, a magnetorheological fluid brake, a brake pump shell, a first spring, an oil storage chamber, a first piston, a limiting check ring, a second spring, a second piston, a brake pedal, an angle sensor, a three-position three-way solenoid valve, an energy accumulator, a wheel speed sensor and a controller. The angle sensor, the wheel speed sensor, the electromagnetic coil set, the electromagnetic chuck assembly and the three-position three-way solenoid valve are all electrically connected with the controller. According to the brake, the magnetorheological fluid brake is adopted as auxiliary brake of a conventional hydraulic brake, not only can the brake response speed be increased, but also the loss of friction elements is reduced; hydraulic braking and magnetofluid adjusting braking are combined, and multi-stage braking can be simply and efficiently achieved; and the brake is of great significance in braking research of the disc brake.
