  • Patent number: 4998781
    Abstract: The invention relates to a brake device for a hydraulic vehicle brake system. In this device, a return feed pump located in a feed pump housing is supported at several points between an assembly housing and a fastening plate and is movable relative to the other components. The mounting is done by screws resting in bearing tubes, the screws being surrounded by elastic damping sleeves in order to enable the elastic mobility of the feed pump housing. The line connections between the feed pump housing and the assembly housing are made by small connecting tubes resting in housing bores in the feed pump housing on one side and in the assembly housing on the other. The through bore extending through the feed pump housing in this region is sealed off on the side of the feed pump housing opposite the small connecting tubes by bolts, which with their part remote from the feed pump housing rest on the fastening plate.

  • Patent number: 4934248
    Abstract: A brake booster in a housing, having a servo piston slidably supported in the housing and having a piston rod protruding into the housing for transmitting a brake force. In the servo piston, a work chamber is provided for receiving brake fluid drawn after the opening of a valve from a reservoir or supply container and pumped via a pump or the like. The work chamber also communicates via a further valve or the like with a return line to the supply container. To improve valve closing and to shorten the idle travel, the valve preceding the work chamber and arranged for the admission of the brake fluid is embodied by a valve bushing in a blind bore of the servo piston and by a spring-loaded closing element, such as a ball. The valve bushing is disposed between the piston rod and the ball and is traversed by a pin or the like, capable of being acted upon by the piston rod, for lifting the ball from its valve seat.

  • Patent number: 4882976
    Abstract: A brake booster in which a servo piston is slidably supported in a housing. The transmission of a brake force is effected via a piston rod protruding into the housing, and a work chamber is formed between the piston rod and the servo piston. After the opening of a valve, this work chamber can be filled with brake fluid from a reservoir or supply container via a pump or the like. A return line also leads out of the work chamber back to the supply container, via a further valve. To improve the closing or sealing behavior of the valves, the first valve is to be embodied for admitting the brake fluid from a valve cone, or its shoulder, the valve cone extending axially in a blind bore of the servo piston, and a valve seat formed out of a valve bushing. The second valve is likewise embodied as a seat valve, and an element connected with the valve cone cooperates with an element connected with the piston rod.
