  • 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.

  • Patent number: 10525953
    Abstract: A pneumatic brake booster including a booster housing having at least one housing shell. The housing shell is designed to be substantially pot-shaped with a center axis, a base portion and a lateral portion, and the base portion has a curved or conical wall region. In order to offer a brake booster by which it is possible to cost-effectively realize improved adaptability to customer- and application-specific requirements with respect to the spatial connection arrangement, at least one flattened surface area is formed in a radial outer region of the base portion, is designed to be elongate in the circumferential direction and has, at its radial outer edge, at least two notches which are arranged with respect to one another in a defined grid pattern with a circle angle.
