Methods and systems are provided for a pressure tapping device for a motor vehicle where a portion of the pressure energy generated at the fuel storage reservoir is transmitted to a working medium, physically separate from the fuel via the pressure tapping device. The pressure tapping device is fluidically coupled to a pressure actuator and enables the pressure operation via transmission of the pressure energy and adjustment of valves diverting flow from the fuel storage reservoir to the engine intake through the pressure tapping device.

The subject disclosure provides a balance valve and a vacuum booster. The balance valve includes a valve seat (11), a connecting cylinder (16) and a conic cylinder (17) orderly connected from left to right, wherein the valve seat (11) is annular, a sealing flange (12) is provided on an outer periphery of the conic cylinder (17), a protruded lip (13) for sealing is provided on an outer periphery of the valve seat (11), and the valve seat (11) is provided therein with a via hole (14) for communicating a left surface of the valve seat (11) with a right surface of the valve seat (11) outside the connecting cylinder (16). The vacuum booster having the balance valve can reduce a difference between the starting force and the restoring force, thereby increasing the restoring force while keeping the starting force of the same level.

A method of controlling an aspirator valve of a vacuum assisted braking system that rapidly fully opens and closes the aspirator valve when an engine of a motor vehicle has been shut-down and the current conditions indicate that ice is likely to have formed in the aspirator valve. The rapid opening and closing of the aspirator valve breaks up any ice buildup thereby de-icing the aspirator valve and allowing normal aspirator valve operation.

A vacuum brake booster for a motor vehicle brake system, comprising a displaceable force input member that is coupled to or can be coupled to a brake pedal, a chamber arrangement arranged in a booster housing having at least one working chamber and at least one vacuum chamber, which are separated from one another via at least one movable wall, a control valve assembly that can be actuated by the force input member, and a force output member for transmitting an operating force to a downstream brake system. The at least one working chamber can be fluidically connected optionally to a negative pressure source or the atmosphere by way of the control valve assembly. The control valve assembly comprises a control valve housing, in which an actuating piston that is coupled with the force input member s displaceably arranged, and a first valve seat, and a second valve seat. Upon an actuation of the force input member, a throttle sleeve can be displaced from the initial position relative to the control valve housing by a predetermined functional path. During the displacement, the throttle sleeve is in abutment with the actuating piston such that a fluidic connection between the at least one working chamber and the ambient atmosphere by way of a throttle window is present. Upon exceeding the functional path, the throttle sleeve lifts off the actuating piston.

A pneumatic brake booster for a motor vehicle having a booster housing, the interior space of which is divided by at least one axially movable wall loadable with a pneumatic differential pressure into at least one working chamber and at least one vacuum chamber. The movable wall includes a diaphragm plate and a rolling diaphragm which is arranged sealingly between the booster housing and the control housing, having a control valve which controls the differential pressure, is arranged in the control housing, and which controls a connection of the working chamber to the vacuum chamber or atmosphere, having at least one extraction duct which is integrated into the control housing for connection of the vacuum chamber to the working chamber, wherein the extraction duct can be blocked by the control valve. A device is also provided between the vacuum chamber and working chamber to improve the noise behavior.
