Abstract
A combined service brake and spring brake cylinder for vehicle brake systems, includes a service brake piston and a spring brake piston. A sealing assembly is located in a central bore of a partition and seals off the interior of the service brake cylinder from the interior of the spring brake cylinder. The radial outer peripheral surface of the spring brake piston has an additional sealing assembly for sealing off a spring chamber. At least one of the sealing assemblies contains a guide ring that guides the spring brake piston rod in the bore of the partition, or the spring brake piston in the spring brake cylinder. The guide ring consists of a more rigid material than that of at least one sealing element. The sealing element consists of an elastomer that is connected to the guide ring by original forming methods such as injection molding or transfer molding.
