  • Patent number: 9541075
    Abstract: A motor vehicle hydraulic brake system master cylinder, having at least one piston which is arranged in a housing and displaceable along an axis as a result of brake actuation and to which a pressure chamber which can be connected to wheel brakes, and a refill chamber is assigned, wherein the pressure chamber in the non-actuated state can be connected to a fluid reservoir via a compensating bore and on actuation of the brake can be isolated therefrom by means of a cup seal arranged on the piston in order to build up pressure. The master cylinder having a cup seal arranged in a radially open, encircling groove of the piston which groove is formed by a first and a second radially encircling projection, wherein when the brake actuation is released additional fluid is drawn from the refill chamber in the direction of the pressure chamber via the second projection.
