Abstract
A brake booster of stroke-enlarging type wherein the brake feeling is improved. The brake booster includes a casing, a power piston disposed in said casing so as to divide the interior of the casing into two chambers for being actuated by the pressure difference in the two chambers, and a control piston having a built-in control valve for controlling the pressure difference due to the operation of an input member. The power piston is so disposed as to be relatively movable for a predetermined distance with respect to the control piston and able to be advanced at the initial stage of the braking operation relative to the control piston at a stroke, independently of the amount of advancement of the input member, for the predetermined distance in order to give an output member a larger output stroke than stroke input. At least on one of the mutual abutting surfaces abutting to each other for restricting the end position of the relative movement for the predetermined distance of the power piston to the control piston a shock-absorbing member of rubber material is fixed.
