Abstract
A light weight brake booster is disclosed having an internal axial tube for transmitting axial forces with a working or boosting piston surrounding the tube and a control piston slideably guide inside the tube. These two pistons are connected by reaction levers extending through longitudinal slots in the tube. The reaction levers are pivotably supported to transmit boosting forces to a master brake cylinder and their inner ends engage the control piston to deliver a reaction force to the brake pedal to give the driver the required 'brake feel'.
