The present disclosure relates to a hydraulic pressure supply device and an electronic brake system including the same, including: a hydraulic block formed with a flow path through which oil supplied from a reservoir flows; a motor pump unit coupled to one side of the hydraulic block, configured to generate drive force by supply of power and to move forward and backward by the drive force; a sleeve coupled to an inside of the hydraulic block on the other side of the hydraulic block and configured to form a forward and backward path of the motor pump unit; a housing coupled to the other side of the hydraulic block and configured to form a space for generating hydraulic pressure with the oil supplied from the reservoir while shielding the other side of the sleeve; and a damping member provided between the sleeve and the housing and configured to absorb vibration generated between the sleeve and the housing and to prevent noise when pressure in the space for generating the hydraulic pressure rises due to the forward and backward movement of the motor pump unit.

In order to improve a master unit for vehicles, in particular for vehicles steered by a handlebar, comprising a housing, a master cylinder unit provided in the housing, an actuation unit for manually actuating the master cylinder unit with a push lever pivotable relative to the housing about a push lever pivot axis and with a push element transmitting a movement of the push lever to the master cylinder unit, which push element is provided on the push lever and, when the actuation unit is manually actuated, acts, via a pressure surface at a contact point, on a contact surface of the master cylinder unit, such that an optimal adaptation to the particular circumstances is possible, it is proposed that, in order to adjust a transmission ratio of the actuation unit with which the actuation unit acts on the master cylinder unit, a lever arm effective in the event of the actuation is adjustable between the contact point and the push lever pivot axis by means of an adjustment device.

Cup seals are fitted to a cylinder hole of a hydraulic pressure master cylinder. A plunger is movably inserted into the cylinder hole via the cup seals. A fluid chamber is formed on an outer circumferential side of the cylinder hole and between the cup seals so as to communicate with a fluid storage chamber through a fluid communication hole. The plunger is formed in a cylindrical shape having a bottom and provided with a recess portion opening toward a bottom portion of the cylinder hole. A hydraulic pressure chamber is defined between the recess portion and the bottom portion. Plural communication ports are formed in a circumferential wall of the recess portion, to penetrate the circumferential wall. When the plunger is in an initial position and is in a non-operating state, the communication ports connect the hydraulic pressure chamber and the fluid chamber.

Braking systems and methods having above atmospheric pressure applied to the working hydraulic fluid of the braking system. In certain preferred arrangements, the braking system includes at least one source of pressure, which pressurizes a fluid. The pressurized fluid acts on respective pressure surfaces of the master plunger(s) and the slave piston(s) that are opposite the active or working surfaces of the master plunger(s) and the slave piston(s).

A brake system for motor vehicles may have a main brake cylinder with a floating piston arranged therein, which hermetically seals first and second pressure chambers from one another. The first pressure chamber may be hydraulically connected to a first brake circuit, and the second pressure chamber may be hydraulically connected to a second brake circuit. The brake system may further include a pressure means reservoir under atmospheric pressure, wheel brakes, an electrically controllable pressure supply device for pressure build-up and pressure reduction in the wheel brakes, a valve block with a currentless open inlet valve/switching valve for each wheel brake and with at least one outlet valve, wherein each wheel brake can be hydraulically connected via the switching valve associated with it to a pressure chamber of the main brake cylinder.

A brake system for actuating front and rear wheel brakes includes a reservoir and a master cylinder operable by actuation of a brake pedal connected to the master cylinder to generate brake actuating pressure at a first output for hydraulically actuating the front wheel brakes. A power transmission unit is configured for selectively providing pressurized hydraulic fluid for actuating the front wheel brakes. A pair of rear brake motors selectively electrically actuate respective rear wheel brakes. An electronic control unit controls at least one of the power transmission unit and the rear brake motors. A two-position three-way valve is hydraulically connected with the master cylinder and the power transmission unit and with the front wheel brakes. The three-way valve selectively controls hydraulic fluid flow from a chosen one of the master cylinder and the power transmission unit to at least one of the front wheel brakes.

A pressure generating device may comprise a piston-cylinder unit having a bilaterally acting piston with two effective surfaces defining two respective, separate working spaces in a sealing manner. Each working space is connected via a hydraulic line to a hydraulic circuit, wherein at least one hydraulic chamber of a consumer is connected to each hydraulic circuit, and wherein a drive drives the piston. Each working space may be in communication with a reservoir for hydraulic medium, via a respective hydraulic line having a respective switching valve. Alternatively, one or both working spaces may be in communication with a reservoir for hydraulic medium via a hydraulic line, with a switching valve in one or both hydraulic lines, and/or a respective outlet valve may be associated with one or more hydraulic chambers of the consumer, and a further connecting line having a switching valve may connect the pressure chambers and/or hydraulic lines.

A sensor device for detecting a displacement of a master brake cylinder piston of a master brake cylinder situated on and/or in a hydraulic unit includes: a sensor element; an evaluation electronics system; a first molded part on or in which the at least one sensor element is situated, the first molded part including at least one first electrical contact element; and a second molded part. The at least one first electrical contact element contacts at least one second electrical contact element of the second molded part which is at least partially introduced into the second opening.

Disclosed is a brake master cylinder. The brake cylinder includes a cylinder body, a first piston and a second piston that are provided in the cylinder body so as to perform a reciprocating motion, and a hall sensor installed outside the cylinder body and configured to sense operations of the first and second pistons to control on/off of a brake lamp. The brake master cylinder is provided with a magnet installed on the first piston, and a rotation preventing member configured to limit rotation of the first piston, wherein as rotation of the first piston is limited, the magnet is installed at a portion of the first piston that faces the hall sensor.
