A hydraulic operating device comprises a base member, an operating member, a piston, and a mounting member. The base member includes a cylinder bore, a first hose-attachment hole, and a second hose-attachment hole. The first hose-attachment hole is configured to be in fluid communication with the cylinder bore. The second hose-attachment hole is configured to be in fluid communication with the cylinder bore. The mounting member includes a mount opening through which the handlebar is to extend. The mount opening has a mount center axis. The base member includes a support portion configured to contact an outer circumferential surface of the handlebar without clamping the handlebar in a mounting state where the handlebar extends through the mount opening of the mounting member.

Air brake tubing is provided having an air brake tube body comprising at least one layer formed from a composition comprising a copolyester, polyethylene terephthalate or polybutylene terephthalate; and a thermoplastic polyurethane.

A valve assembly for a braking system having a master cylinder side opening, at least one caliper side opening, and at least one valve pipe, connecting the master cylinder side opening and the caliper side opening. A shutter element has a shutter body movable with respect to the valve body. When the shutter body is in a valve closing position, it interrupts a at least one main fluid passage and defines a master cylinder side pipe stretch facing a master cylinder side opening and a caliper side pipe stretch facing a caliper side opening in the valve pipe. The shutter body at least partially delimits at least one secondary fluid passage, so that, when the shutter body is in a valve closing position, the master cylinder side pipe stretch is in fluid communication with the caliper side pipe stretch only through the secondary fluid passage.

An exemplary brake booster device includes, among other things, a brake booster mounted on a vehicle component, and an actuator that, in response to a force applied to the actuator by a gearbox housing, pivots to move the brake booster upward. The actuator includes at least two pivot elements spaced from each other, and a displacement mounted in a jointed manner between the at least two pivot elements.

A distributor valve for a brake control system of a railway vehicle is provided with an access interface that includes a plurality of access ports for measuring the operational pressures of the distributor valve. The distributor valve includes a pipe bracket and a main line and main portions mounted on the pipe bracket. The pipe bracket includes a plurality of passages for communicating the main portion and the main line portion with each other and with a brake pipe, brake cylinder, and reservoir of the brake control system. The plurality of access ports of the access interface includes ports in communication with the working chamber passage, valve chamber passage, brake pipe passage, reservoir passage, and the brake cylinder passage of the pipe bracket.

A hydraulic component for braking systems and/or clutch drives may have at least one connector and an eyelet. The component may also have an inlet plug that brings fluid into the block. The component may also have at least one upper seal interposed between an upper surface of the eyelet and a head of the inlet plug. The component may also have at least one bottom seal interposed between a lower surface of the eyelet and a base of the block. Between at least one of the upper and lower surfaces of the eyelet and the corresponding head or base a protuberance is interposed, so that in the absence of the corresponding seal, the protuberance creates an interspace allowing the leakage of fluid.

An anti-rotation banjo connection comprising a banjo plate attached to a pipe at its own first end edge and including an opening configured to receive a bolt, the bolt being configured to be screwed into a port of a hydraulic component, wherein a second end edge of the banjo plate, opposite to the first end edge, is provided with a positioning notch configured to partially surround a stopping fastener when the bolt is screwed into the port, whereby an edge wall delimiting the positioning notch is configured to interfere with the stopping fastener preventing the banjo plate from rotating about the bolt.

An actuating device is part of a bicycle hydraulic operating system that also includes an additional actuating device and a hydraulic operated device. The hydraulic operated device includes a slave cylinder fluidly connected to an additional master cylinder of the additional actuating device such that operation of an additional operating member of the additional actuating device moves the slave piston. The actuating device includes an operating member, a master cylinder, a master piston and a fluid port. The fluid port fluidly connects the master cylinder to the slave fluid port such that operation of the operating member moves the slave piston. The actuating device has no fluid reservoir. The master cylinder of the actuating device is fluidly connected to the additional master cylinder of the additional actuating device at a point upstream of the fluid port with respect to a flow of hydraulic fluid towards the hydraulic operated device.
