  • Patent number: 10525954
    Abstract: A pneumatic brake booster for a hydraulic motor-vehicle brake system, including a booster housing, having a front and a rear housing shell, and at least one connecting pin, which is arranged in the booster housing such that the at least one connecting pin extends axially parallel to the center axis and which supports the booster housing from the inside by two supporting formations and which protrudes through the booster housing from the inside to the outside on at least one side by an end segment. In order to ensure simple intermediate handling of the brake booster before and during the assembly of the brake system and to improve the durability and corrosion resistance, the housing shells are arranged in such a way that the housing shells are each connected to the connecting pin such that the housing shells are secured against being axially moved apart from each other.
