Abstract
To reduce the overall weight of mechanically controlled brake boosters it is known to transmit the axial reaction forces by means of axial draw bars or pipes extending axially within the booster housing. According to the present invention the weight reduction and a decrease in axial length of the brake booster is accomplished having the booster housing shaped like a ring which surrounds and is connected to the maste brake cylinder. The master brake cylinder is fastened to the vehicle splashboard via axial webs extending beyond a lateral wall of the booster housing. A yoke arranged movably between the splashboard and the booster housing contains the valve mechanism and transmits the boosting force from the booster piston (movable wall) to the piston of the master brake cylinder.
