  • Booster interlock divider and diaphragm concept
    Patent number: 5086690
    Abstract: A peripheral sealed interlock for a dual diaphragm tandem vacuum booster with front and rear housings is provided. An outer radial peripheral end of a divider of the inventive interlock is greatly simplified and in the preferred embodiment a bead of a secondary diaphragm is allowed to seal on a rear housing member as well as with the periphery of the divider. The interlock provides a simplified design allowing independent compression of primary and secondary diaphragm beads while at the same time providing an interlock which require lower compression for assembly and sealing.
