  • Patent number: 4036535
    Abstract: In a braking fluid pressure control device, a push rod engages against a blind end of a bore extending inwardly and axially with respect to a plunger. Between the plunger and the push rod, the bore provides clearance increasing from the blind end of the bore toward an open end thereof. The push rod projects from the open end of the bore outside the plunger and engages against a plunger seat slidably fitted in a housing bore. The push rod is biased by a spring which is compressed between the plunger seat and a piston. As a result, a radial force is prevented from acting on the plunger as the plunger is urged by the piston. This avoids damage to an inner wall by the plunger increasing the durability of the control device.
