Abstract: The present invention relates to a master cylinder assembly in a brake system and a piston stop. The master cylinder assembly comprises one or more piston assemblies. At least one of the piston assemblies comprises a piston (1), a piston stop (2) and a spring (3), wherein the piston stop (2) snaps into the piston (1), and the spring is retained between the piston (1) and the piston stop (2) and placed outside the piston stop (2). According to the present invention, on a circumferential wall of the piston stop (2) are provided deep slots (4) extending axially and running through the thickness of the circumferential wall, and these deep slots open towards one side of the piston stop where it snaps into the piston (1).
Abstract: A master cylinder assembly of the type comprises a housing (20) disposed along an axis (A) defining a chamber (22) having a cylindrical shape extending horizontally between an open end and a closed end. A first cylinder (42) and a second cylinder (44) are disposed for sliding movement axially along the axis. Each of the cylinders includes a cylindrical wall (48) defining a cylindrical bore (52). A piston (56) is disposed in each of the cylindrical bores. The cylindrical wall of each cylinder includes a cylinder ramp (70) to define a cylinder ramp shoulder (74). Each piston includes a piston ramp (76) to define a piston ramp shoulder (80). The piston ramp shoulder (80) of each piston and the cylinder ramp shoulder (74) of each cylinder radially engage one another in an assembled position to allow the cylinders (42, 44) and the pistons (56) to abut one another during the sliding movement axially along the axis within the chamber of the housing.
