The brakes are called surge brakes. They react when the trailer tongue senses the vehicle slowing. The problem with those is they are slow to react, and often don't work because of a poorly maintained master cylinder on the tongue.
My son rented one a few years ago to haul his Cadillac to Florida. I took the cap off of the master and it was dry rust flakes inside. They brought us another trailer.
