Actuator device for a hydraulic actuation system of a brake/clutch of a motorcycle, with separate adjustment of the distance and pitch of the actuation lever
The actuator device for a hydraulic actuation system for a brake/clutch for a motorcycle is described. The actuator device may have a support structure associable with a handlebar of the motorcycle. The actuator device may also have an actuation assembly having a push rod operatively connectable to at least one braking device. The actuator device may also have an actuation lever connected to the support structure so as to be rotatable about an actuation axis, where the actuation lever is provided with a pusher adapted to interface with the push rod. The actuator device may also have an adjustment device adapted to modify both the angular position, in a rest condition, of the pusher and of the actuation lever with respect to the handlebar and to modify a pitch between the actuation axis of the actuation lever and a contact and thrust point of the pusher on the push rod.

FORCE INPUT MEMBER FOR A BRAKE ACTUATING DEVICE
A force input member for a brake actuating device of a vehicle brake system includes at least one first portion connected to the brake actuating device; at least one second portion connected to a brake pedal; and at least one coupling device. The at least one coupling device couples the first portion and the second portion to one another wherein the at least one coupling device is designed to permit a relative movement between the first portion and the second portion in the case of a force acting on the force input element which is greater than or equal to a predetermined release force.
MASTER CYLINDER FOR A BRAKING SYSTEM
A dual input master cylinder, comprising a housing having a first input, a piston base positioned within the housing, and a piston rod having a first end and a second end, the first end of the piston rod abutting the piston base and the second end of the piston rod acting as a second input of the dual input master cylinder, wherein the piston rod is capable of being spaced apart from the piston base
Devices and systems for preventing misalignment in vehicle brake assemblies
A vehicle brake assembly includes an actuation lever coupled to a brake pedal. The brake assembly also includes a push rod of a brake booster. The push rod has a clevis on an end portion thereof. The clevis comprises two prongs. The brake assembly further includes an alignment device seated on each respective prong of the clevis. The alignment devices are configured to collectively guide and position the clevis into alignment with the actuation lever during construction of the brake assembly.

Electromechanical brake assist system
An electromechanical brake assist system driven by an electric motor cooperating with a master cylinder and having, along the axis of actuation, a helper piston in the shape of an axial sleeve solidly connected with a guide bracket and having a threaded surface. A nut, fixed in translation but free to rotate, has interior threads that complement those of the helper piston, which it receives, and exterior teeth that cooperate with the drive motor. A plunger piston carries a drive base so it can be pushed by the piston. Its other extremity is connected to the control rod, formed from a body and a head. The body has a crimping area and the head has a sleeve with an extremity that can be crimped along the crimping area.
