Abstract:
In order to provide a master cylinder, in particular for a clutch system, an actuating system or a braking system of a vehicle, which enables secure sealing of the cylinder chamber relative to the outside, as well as a reliable flow of hydraulic medium into the cylinder chamber, it is proposed that the piston comprises a first section which has a cylindrical lateral surface and a second section which has at least one region which is set back radially inwardly with respect to the cylindrical lateral surface of the first section, wherein at least one set-back region extends to an end of the piston and wherein the first and second sections are arranged on the piston in such a way that in an actuating position of the piston, the main sealing element in the first section of the piston abuts in sealing manner thereagainst and in the pressure equalization position of the piston, in the second section of the piston between the piston and the main sealing element, at least one gap is formed, through which hydraulic medium can flow along the piston from the supply chamber into the cylinder chamber in order to equalize the pressure.
Abstract:
A coupling device (10) is used in a brake system of a motor vehicle with handlebar steering and having a hand-operated valve, a foot-operated valve, a front-wheel brake device and a rear-wheel brake device. The coupling device has a housing, a port (30) for the hand-operated valve, a brake cylinder section (15) for the front wheel brake, a brake piston (22) which is arranged in the brake cylinder section (15), and a port (20) for the front-wheel brake. The coupling device (10) has a port (40) for the foot-operated valve and a coupling piston (42) which is arranged between the brake cylinder section (15) and the port (40) for the foot-operated valve. The effective area, which acts for a hydraulic transmission of force, of the coupling piston (42) is smaller on the side facing toward the brake cylinder section (15) than on the side facing toward the port (40) for the foot-operated valve. The coupling piston (42) is arranged in a differential cylinder. The coupling device (10) has a stop, which is fixed to the housing, for the brake piston (22) for a movement in the direction of the port (30) for the hand-operated valve. The coupling device (10) has a valve device for closing off the hydraulic connection between the coupling piston (42) and the foot-operated valve.

A master cylinder, for a clutch, actuating or brake system, comprising a cylinder housing with a piston bore, a piston in the piston bore with an end side facing a cylinder chamber and an afterflow opening leading from a piston skirt surface through a piston wall to the cylinder chamber at a distance from the end side, adjoining an afterflow space in a pressure equalization position of the piston where, in the pressure equalization position, hydraulic medium runs into the cylinder chamber to equalize the pressure, and an inner sealing element, arranged between the housing and the piston, limits the cylinder chamber, the afterflow space arranged between the sealing element and the piston skirt surface on a side of a sealing lip of the sealing element facing away from the cylinder chamber, and, in the pressure equalization position, the afterflow opening is located opposite an inner surface of the sealing element.
Abstract:
A brake calliper for a disc brake, in particular for motor cycles and/or bicycles, includes a housing (30) for accommodating brake linings (40) which grip a brake disc during braking, with the housing having an abutment area (33) for contact with the brake linings during braking in the forward direction of travel and an assembly opening (29) which is opposite the abutment area (33) and through which the brake linings (40) can be inserted into the housing (30). A brake lining securing device (50) secures the brake linings in the housing (30) on the side opposite the abutment area (33), and a brake lining support device (31) supports the brake linings (40) between the abutment area (33) and the brake lining securing device (50). The brake linings can be arranged so that firstly the danger of undesired blocking during the braking process and secondly the danger of vibration of the brake during driving are substantially reduced. Specifically, the brake calliper has a prestressing device (32) which prestresses a brake lining (40) inserted into the housing (30) in a defined position.

Abstract:
A brake caliper for a disk brake, in particular for motorcycles and/or bicycles, includes a housing (30) in which a disk space (39) for receiving a brake disk and a brake cylinder (35) for receiving a brake piston (25) are formed. The brake cylinder (35) is connected to the disk space (39) and has, on its side opposite to the disk space (39), an assembly opening (50) through which the brake piston (25) can be inserted into the brake cylinder (35). A closure element (10) closes the assembly opening (50) after the insertion of the brake piston (25) into the brake cylinder (35). A securing element (21) secures the closure element (10) in the assembly opening (50) against forces in the direction of the main axis of the brake cylinder (35).
