Abstract: An open port is provided on an inner peripheral surface of the cylinder bore of the reservoir apparatus and the port is exposed to the exterior of the reservoir apparatus. A hollow portion is formed concentrically with the port on a reservoir body. An annular thin portion is formed between the inner peripheral surface of the cylinder bore and the hollow portion surrounding the port in a radial direction. The thin portion is outwardly deflected and deformed by being pushed outwardly in a radial direction centering on the port in a range narrower than the inner diameter of the hollow portion. Thus, the opening of the port is outwardly sunk from the inner peripheral surface of the cylinder bore thereby to form a curved surface at a root portion of the thin portion on the inner peripheral surface of the cylinder bore.

Abstract: A brake hydraulic pressure controlling apparatus for a vehicle includes a hydraulic pressure block included in a hydraulic pressure unit and including therein a hydraulic circuit, a plurality of electromagnetic valves attached on a surface of the hydraulic pressure block and changing an opening degree of a passage of the hydraulic circuit, and an electronic control unit including an ECU board, which is electrically connected to the electromagnetic valves and on which an electronic control device executing a driving control of each of the electromagnetic valves is provided, and attached on the surface of the hydraulic pressure block so that the ECU board is covered by a case, wherein the ECU board of the electronic control unit is arranged within an area of the surface of the hydraulic pressure block and all of the plurality of the electromagnetic valves are arranged adjacently around the ECU board.

Abstract: A backflow prevention device includes a check valve including a valve body and a valve seat, an enclosure member retained by a peripheral member and arranged at a downstream side of the valve body, the enclosure member including an entrance facing an upstream side and being formed into a cylindrical shape having a bottom wall, the enclosure member into which the valve body is inserted via the entrance, the enclosure member having an inner diameter for guiding an outer periphery of the valve body, the upstream side corresponding to a direction where the fluid flows into the check valve while the downstream side corresponding to a direction where the fluid flowing into the check valve flows out therefrom, and a bypass passage provided at an outer periphery of the enclosure member, the bypass passage through which the fluid passing through a valve portion of the check valve flows.

The housing includes a sacrificial deformation portion deformed by a force applied to the housing when the bearing surface is deformed by means of the caulking, the sacrificial deformation portion attenuating a force propagated to a portion including the second part assembly hole where the second apparatus component is assembled.

Abstract: Pressure regulating reservoirs are positioned in an upper portion of a housing, and pumps are positioned below the pressure regulating reservoirs. More specifically, the pressure regulating reservoirs are positioned in an upper portion of the housing so as to provide installation space in a lower portion of the housing. This installation space is used for positioning the pumps, and as a result it is possible to locate the pumps as far as possible toward the bottom of the housing.

Abstract: A drain port conduit of an ABS actuator, which extends in a housing straight and perpendicularly to ground for making a backpressure chamber communicate with an outside of the housing, is provided on a side of the backpressure chamber with a small diameter portion and on a side of the ground with a large diameter portion. A ring plate is press fitted to the large diameter portion at an axial end thereof on a side of the ground. A diameter of a hole of the ring plate is smaller than an inner diameter of the small diameter portion so that water is restrained from entering into the drain port conduit and, even if entered, from reaching the backpressure chamber.

Abstract: A cup-shaped diaphragm is inserted into a bore formed in a housing. An inlet opening of the bore is closed by a plug-like wall member. A conduit line extends obliquely with respect to an axis of the bore from an annular space formed between a cylindrical wall of the bore and a protruding portion of the plug-like wall member. The annular space is connected to a pressurizing control valve via the conduit line. A chamber, partitioned from the annular space by the cup-shaped diaphragm, serves as a damper chamber which has a diameter substantially equivalent to a diameter of the bore.

Abstract: A motor, installed on a first surface of a housing, has a drive shaft normal to the first surface. Two pumps are installed in the housing and driven by the motor for introducing and discharging operation fluid. Two reservoirs are provided in the housing for storing the operation fluid released from a wheel cylinder and supplied to the pump. Each reservoir has an opening at a second surface of the housing and an axis normal to the second surface. Two dampers are provided in the housing for suppressing pulsation flow of the operation fluid discharged from the pump. Each damper has an opening at a third surface of the housing and an axis normal to the third surface. The third surface faces to the second surface so that the drive shaft of the motor is interposed between the second surface and the third surface.
