Patent number: 10525960Abstract: A brake unit having a container which serves for accommodating working fluid and which is arranged with at least one connector piece in a receiving bore and which is sealed off by a sealing element which extends radially around the connector piece. In order to offer a simple, inexpensive and pressure-tight interface between connector piece in a receiving bore, it is proposed that a form fit transversely with respect to the direction of the longitudinal axis of the connector piece is formed by a displacement of the material of the sealing element during the installation of the connector piece in the receiving bore.Type: GrantFiled: March 15, 2016Date of Patent: January 7, 2020Assignee: Continental Teves AG & Co. oHGInventors: Sascha Gerber, Stephan Krebs, Horst Krämer, Harald König, Christoph Schiel
