  • Patent number: 9421957
    Abstract: A braking device includes a guide piston which surrounds the outer periphery of a rod part of a second slave piston, a cup seal which is mounted on the second slave piston, and a seal member which is provided on the guide piston. The second slave piston includes an enlarged diameter portion which comes into contact with an axial-direction surface of the guide piston when the second slave piston is in the initial position, and the enlarged diameter portion is provided with a cut-out section which extends in the internal diameter direction of the second slave piston.

  • Patent number: 9327697
    Abstract: A first slave piston and a second slave piston are disposed in tandem in series within a cylinder body, and the pistons are arranged so that part of the shaft section of the second slave piston overlaps with the inner periphery of an opening section provided in the backward side, in the displacement direction, of the first slave piston. A long hole extending along the axial direction of the second slave piston is provided in the shaft section, and a connection pin which regulates the initial position of the second slave piston is inserted into the long hole.

  • Patent number: 9302662
    Abstract: Provided is a vehicle brake system including a master cylinder which generates a master hydraulic pressure through an operation of a brake pedal by an operator, and a cylinder body which houses a first and second slave pistons driven by an electric motor operated in accordance with an operation amount of the brake pedal, and is formed with a first hydraulic chamber and a second hydraulic chamber for generating a slave hydraulic pressure through operations of the first and second slave pistons. Further, the cylinder body includes a first bleeder and a second bleeder which are configured to be switchable between open states in which a first hydraulic chamber and a second hydraulic chamber are in communication with an external of the cylinder body and closed states in which the first hydraulic chamber and the second hydraulic chamber are not in communication with the external of the cylinder body.

  • Publication number: 20150059335
    Abstract: Provided is a stroke simulator in which the piston operates smoothly without being inhibited from displacement thereof by the negative pressure generated in the closed space, even if the piston is configured to be displaced so as to close the space in which the elastic member is housed, and to elastically deform the elastic member. A stroke simulator, in which a simulator piston presses a first return spring, which is housed in a bottomed cylindrical portion, from an opening portion side of the cylindrical portion, to cause the first return spring to be elastically deform, and to generate a brake reaction force. When the opening portion is closed by the simulator piston, a brake fluid filled in the cylinder portion is taken into the inside of the cylindrical portion via a flow path leading to the inside of the cylindrical portion from a second cylinder.
