Hydraulic unit for generating brake pressure for a hydraulic brake system
A hydraulic assembly for generating brake pressure for a hydraulic brake system, comprising a housing which is produced from a cast blank, having at least one receiving cavity for receiving a connector piece which is connected to a fluid container and which can be plugged along a plug-in axis (S) into the receiving cavity. The cast blank has, in the receiving cavity, at least one substantially planar surface, the normal vector (N) of which is oriented at an oblique inclination angle (W) with respect to the plug-in axis (S).
Hydraulic-type time-difference brake apparatus
A hydraulic-type time-difference brake apparatus includes at least a driving device, a housing, a first pump mechanism and a second pump mechanism as main components combined together. The driving device is provided with a first driving rod, a second driving rod, a brake starting member and a housing, one end of the first driving rod is connected to the brake starting member, and the other end is connected to the first pump mechanism, the first driving rod can push the first pump mechanism and output the first braking force to the rear wheel brake; one end of the second driving rod is connected to the brake starting member by a sliding device, and the other end is connected to the second pump mechanism, the second driving rod can push the second pump mechanism and output the second braking force to the front wheel brake. The sliding process of the sliding device can delay the time the brake starting member activates the second driving rod, so that the start time between the first driving rod and the second driving rod will have a time difference. In this way, the driver can cause the rear wheel brake and the front wheel brake to generate a time-difference brake by only one braking operation, the rear wheel brake can first generate a braking force on the rear wheel to reduce the speed of the rear wheel, then the front wheel brake will generate a larger braking force on the front wheel more than the rear wheel after a time difference to improve the safety of the vehicle.
Braking device for a hydraulic motor vehicle braking system having a ball screw drive
A braking device for a hydraulic motor vehicle braking system having an electromechanically driven booster stage and a ball screw drive. In order to provide a braking device which is of particularly compact, cost-effective and weight-saving construction and has short pedal strokes, and an easily adjustable pedal characteristic curve, at the same time enabling effective direct action in case of failure of the booster stage and comfortable haptic feedback at the pedal during normal operation, the actuating force from a piston rod is introduced into the spindle, wherein the piston rod can be moved axially to a limited extent relative to the spindle and a spring element is inserted in the flow of force of the actuating force between the piston rod and the spindle, which spring is compressed axially when the actuating force is introduced.

MASTER CYLINDER FOR A BRAKING SYSTEM
A master cylinder is described. The master cylinder includes a chamber delimited by a piston and supplied from a brake fluid reservoir installed on the top of the master cylinder by an end fitting engaged in a nozzle on the body of the master cylinder. The piston has a nose of reduced section upstream of its skirt guided in the bore hole of the master cylinder and the nozzle is connected to the chamber by a drill hole issuing into the chamber at least partly upstream of the piston in rest position. A valve module is installed in the drill hole to manage communication between the reservoir and the chamber as a function of the position of the piston and the pressure in the chamber with respect to the pressure in the reservoir.

VEHICLE BRAKE SYSTEM WITH SECONDARY BRAKE MODULE
A brake system has a wheel brake and is operable under a non-failure normal braking mode and a manual push-through mode. The system includes a master cylinder operable by a brake pedal during a manual push-through mode to provide fluid flow at an output for actuating the wheel brake. A first source of pressurized fluid provides fluid pressure for actuating the wheel brake under a normal braking mode. A second source of pressurized fluid generates brake actuating pressure for actuating the wheel brake under the manual push-through mode.
