Abstract
A reaction mechanism for use in a vacuum brake booster (10). A lever (86) transfers a reaction force from a first plunge (64) into a second plunger (110) to provide an operator with an indication of the output force being produced in response to an input force. A resilient member (118) urges a first connecting member (116) into engagement with the lever (86). When a predetermined input force is applied, the reaction force overcomes the resilient member (118) and thereafter allows the input force to be directly transmitted through a second connecting member (122) and added to the output force.
