master cylinder

What is a brake master cylinder? What Is A Brake Master Cylinder? The brake master cylinder is a device that converts the brake pedal's force into hydraulic pressure used to activate the brake calipers. The brake master cylinder is typically located near the brake pedal and is connected to the brake pedal through a push rod.

A brake booster, also known as a 'brake servo' or 'vacuum booster', does exactly as the name suggests, it helps to 'boost' the performance of the brakes. A brake booster makes it easier for the driver to brake by increasing the force exerted without the need for additional force applied on the foot pedal.

The master cylinder, also known as the master brake cylinder, converts the pressure on the brake pedal to hydraulic pressure by feeding brake fluid into the brake circuit and controlling this according to the mechanical force. Master brake cylinders are used both in disc brakes and drum brakes.

In manual vehicles, the clutch pedal is connected to the clutch master cylinder, which converts the mechanical movement of the clutch pedal to hydraulic pressure. This makes working the clutch to change gears easier

When the driver presses down the clutch pedal, the push rod pushes the total pump piston to increase the oil pressure, and enters the sub-pump through the hose, forcing the sub-pump pull rod to push the separation fork and push the separation bearing forward; When the driver releases the clutch pedal, the hydraulic pressure is lifted, the separation fork gradually returns to the original position under the action of the return spring, and the clutch is in the engaged state. There is a radial long round through hole in the middle of the piston of the clutch master pump, and the direction limiting screw passes through the long round hole of the piston to prevent the piston from rotating. The oil inlet valve is placed in the axial hole of the left end of the piston, and the oil inlet seat is inserted into the piston hole through the straight hole on the surface of the piston.

The clutch master pump refers to the part connected to the clutch foot pedal and connected to the clutch booster through the tubing. The function is to collect the pedal travel information and separate the clutch through the function of the booster. When the driver presses down the clutch pedal, the push rod pushes the total pump piston to increase the oil pressure, and enters the sub-pump through the hose, forcing the sub-pump pull rod to push the separation fork and push the separation bearing forward; When the driver releases the clutch pedal, the hydraulic pressure is lifted, the separation fork gradually returns to the original position under the action of the return spring, and the clutch is in the engaged state. There is a radial long round through hole in the middle of the piston of the clutch master pump, and the direction limiting screw passes through the long round hole of the piston to prevent the piston from rotating. The oil inlet valve is placed in the axial hole of the left end of the piston, and the oil inlet seat is inserted into the piston hole through the straight hole on the surface of the piston.
