Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Disclosed is a hydraulic brake booster. A relative movement structure of a control plunger and an output shaft is modified in such a manner that the output shaft operates in the control plunger, thereby reducing the overall length of the booster and the manufacturing cost. An inner circumferential surface of a guide of the control plunger does not make contact with an outer circumferential surface of the output shaft, so that the vibration and the impact caused by the contact between the control plunger and the output shaft are not delivered, thereby improving brake pedal feeling. The control plunger includes a guide having a groove, and an inner diameter of the guide is greater than an outer diameter of the output shaft. The control plunger and the output shaft perform relative movement in the overlap state therebetween, thereby reducing the overall length of the booster and the manufacturing cost.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A hydraulic brake booster comprising: a housing having an oil port and first, second, and third receiving sections; a master cylinder coupled with the housing; and a working oil container coupled with the master cylinder to supply working oil, wherein an input shaft is provided in the housing to move back and forth in connection with a brake pedal, a control plunger is provided in the housing to slidably move back and forth together with the input shaf…
