Differential mechanism

A hydraulic master cylinder has pistons displaceable along the pivot axis of a brake pedal to apply the vehicle brakes. Motion between the pedal and the pistons is transmitted by balls located in a respective arcuate track formed partly in the pedal and partly in the respective piston. The master cylinder is particularly suitable for dual circuit brake systems. A master cylinder having a single piston is also disclosed.

Hydraulic master cylinder

A disc brake is of the kind which has an actuator on one side of the disc only, the brake pad on the other side of the disc to the actuator being applied to the disc by the actuator through a yoke of closed loop form. The yoke is constructed with two overlapping sheet metal pressings which are generally flat except where they pass over the periphery of the disc where one pressing is domed away from the other to form a box-section.
