Abstract:
An input piston and an input rod of a master cylinder are connected such that a spherical tip portion of the input rod is integrally connected in an axial direction and tiltably connected in a radial direction to a concave portion in a bottom portion of a piston inner hole. A sphere diameter of the spherical tip portion is larger than the maximum diameter of a shaft portion in the input rod. The concave portion of the input piston has a conical bottom portion that receives the spherical tip portion and a cylindrical hole portion that can accommodate the spherical tip portion, and the concave portion is formed in the input piston itself. An opening-side end portion of the cylindrical hole portion is configured to be pressed and molded in the axial direction and an inner radial direction by use of a fixture to retain the spherical tip portion.
Abstract:
An brake control apparatus includes a reference temperature acquiring unit which acquires a reference temperature correlating with a fluid temperature of a vehicle; an offset amount update unit which increases an offset amount with respect to the reference temperature of the fluid temperature depending on a lapsed time from the starting of the vehicle; and a fluid temperature estimation unit which estimates the fluid temperature by applying the offset amount to the reference temperature.
Abstract:
A part of a bottom of a flange insertion hole that faces a flange part has a form in which an outer circumference side is nearer to the flange part than an inner circumference side. According to this, since a rounded surface of a perimeter edge of the flange part can easily contact to the bottom of the flange insertion hole, an area that receives caulking load is larger as compared with a case where only a flat surface of the flange part contacts the bottom of the flange insertion hole as before, therefore, the bottom of the flange insertion holes can be prevented from buckling.
Abstract:
In a check valve in which a valve part is disposed in a valve part accommodating recess movably relative to a piston part, among the valve part accommodating recess, an anti-valve seat side accommodation space formed between a surface of the valve part accommodating recess in an anti-valve seat side of the valve part and a wall surface of the valve part accommodating recess are communicated to exit side fluid passages.

The substrate is electrically connected to the electric component through the bus bar and the spring and a held portion formed on the spring is held by a spring holding portion integrally formed on the bus bar.
Abstract:
A shaft seal device includes: a rotary shaft; a seal member that is arranged on an outer periphery of the rotary shaft; a liquid chamber; and a seal member accommodation chamber that accommodates the seal member therein, wherein the liquid chamber and the seal member accommodation chamber is separated by a partition wall, wherein the rotary shaft passes through a shaft hole formed in the partition wall and an outer periphery of the rotary shaft is sealed by the seal member, wherein the partition wall is formed with a through-hole penetrating the partition wall, a hollow member is mounted in the through-hole, a protrusion part of the hollow member protrudes toward the seal member accommodation chamber to engage with the seal member, and wherein the liquid chamber and the seal member accommodation chamber communicate with each other through a hole of the hollow member.
Abstract:
A braking control device for a vehicle executes braking force distribution (BFD) biased to front wheel, taking into account auxiliary braking control such as Braking assist control to be executed when an abrupt or full braking action is done by the driver. In BFD control, braking force on rear wheels is held at a holding braking force and braking force on the front wheels is incremented beyond braking force requested by a braking action of a driver. After the starting of BFD control, further increase in the braking action is reflected in the front wheel braking force. When the auxiliary braking control is executed, the holding braking force on the rear wheels and the increment of the braking force on the front wheels are determined based upon a demand of the auxiliary braking action as well as the braking action amount by the driver.
Abstract:
A heat dissipation device is disclosed for dissipating the heat produced by electronic components (16) of an electronic control device. The electronic control device includes a circuit board (14), a resin protective case (10), and a metal actuator block (20). The electronic components are mounted on the circuit board. The protective case confines the circuit board within a thermally restrictive environment. The actuator block is mounted to the outside of the protective case. The heat dissipation device includes a heat conduction path (24, 30) that serves to thermally conduct the heat produced by the electronic components from the interior of the protective case to the actuator block.
Abstract:
The automatic clutch control device according to the present invention controls, regardless of the gear-shift operation, the clutch 24 to be brought into a half-clutch state or to a perfect disconnecting state according to a running state of a vehicle from the following five viewpoints: deceleration slip amount of driving wheels RL and RR; a convergence time of a driving wheel speed to the driving wheel in a pressure-down mode during a vehicle stabilizing control (for example, ABS control); a continuation time of a judder vibration; whether the vehicle is in a spinning state or not; and whether there is a possibility that an engine stall occurs during a traction control. As a result, this device can attain at least one or more objects of the improvement in stability of the vehicle, improvement in precision of the vehicle stabilizing control, improvement of comfortableness of the occupant and prevention of the occurrence of the engine stall.
