An assembly of a master brake cylinder and an associated power cylinder of larger diameter, disposed in front of the dashboard, is held together under tension by a stirrup-shaped retainer with a bight embracing the free end of the master cylinder and two legs anchored to the dashboard, these legs traversing the power cylinder. A roll membrane inside the power cylinder, forming a flexible partition that divides its interior into two chambers between which a pressure difference is developed to operate the master cylinder, has cuffs attached to two guide tubes rigid with at least one wall of the power cylinder, these tubes being traversed by the retainer legs.

Mounting for power-assisted master brake cylinder in an automotive

An assembly of a master brake cylinder and an associated power cylinder of larger diameter, disposed in front of the dashboard of an automotive vehicle with an extension traversing that dashboard, is held together by a flexible retainer such as a strap or a wire embracing the master cylinder and at least part of the outer periphery of the power cylinder under tension. The extremities of the retainer may be anchored directly to the dashboard and its center part is braced against the front end of the master cylinder by an adjustable tensioning device.
