Abstract
A tandem type master cylinder for use in a vehicle hydraulic brake system and having a pressure proportioning valve integrally connected thereto includes a piston slidably received in a bore in the master cylinder and defining a pressure chamber at least on one side thereof, and an actuating member or a slide slidable in directions parallel to the piston and having a sensing end and an actuating end projecting respectively from opposite surfaces thereof. The sensing end passes through a slit formed in the circumferential wall of the bore to project into the pressure chamber in the master cylinder. The actuating end cooperates with a valve member of the pressure proportioning valve such that when the piston is displaced beyond a predetermined normal reciprocating stroke the actuating member is slidingly displaced to tilt the valve member, thereby deactivating the pressure proportioning valve.
