A braking system is provided which includes a support member, a brake disc defining a disc mid-plane line, and a brake caliper including a bridge section, an inboard section and an outboard section. The brake caliper is connected to the support member such that the joint there-between is close to the brake disc mid-plane so as to balance warping between the inboard caliper section and the outboard caliper section.

A clutch cover for a friction clutch and a friction clutch, where the clutch cover forms a ring wall and the ring wall forms a plurality of circumferentially spaced radially extending plates having each a radially outer end. The ring wall also form two or more concentric annular stiffening bands extending at a radial distance from one another and including an innermost annular stiffening band. The ring wall also forms an outermost annular stiffening band, wherein the annular stiffening bands connect the radial plates to each other and having each a radial thickness that is smaller than the radial distance therebetween measured in intermediate regions of the ring wall between respectively two successive radial plates. A plurality of circumferentially spaced drive members of the friction clutch protrude axially from or can be screw connected to said radially outer ends of the radial plates.

Hydraulic master cylinder, a vehicle braking system and a vehicle
A hydraulic brake master cylinder (12) for a vehicle braking system defines a first smaller fluid path (70, 50, 56, 34, 42, 44) and a second larger fluid path (72, 50, 56, 34, 44, 42) for connecting a working chamber (32) with a fluid reservoir at ambient pressure when the cylinder piston (28) is retracted and the brakes are not applied. A pressure relief valve (76) normally closes the second fluid path but is arranged to open when subject to a pressure differential at or above a threshold value. The first fluid path allows a restricted return flow of fluid to the reservoir should a standard knock-back event occur. If a larger knock-back event occurs causing a fluid pressure spike at or above the threshold value, the pressure relief valve (76) opens to allow a higher volume return flow through the second fluid path to dissipate the pressure quickly.

A body for a disc brake caliper has a mounting side limb and a non-mounting side limb, each limb housing at least one hydraulic brake cylinder. The body has a peripheral stiffening band that extends about an outer lateral surface of at least one of the limbs. In a preferred embodiment, a peripheral stiffening band extends about an outer lateral surface of each of the limbs. The stiffening band or bands provide stiffness in the body under dynamic braking conditions with a minimum of material. A method of designing and manufacturing a body for a disc brake caliper involves analyzing the stiffness of the body under dynamic rather than static braking conditions and producing a caliper body with a desired level of stiffness under dynamic conditions while reducing the amount of material used to a minimum.

A differential hydraulic master cylinder (10) has a cylinder body (12) in which is provided a larger diameter first chamber (18) and a smaller diameter second chamber (20). A first fluid passageway (60, 74, 78, 80) connects the first chamber (18) with a source of ambient pressure and contains a pressure relief valve (70) for connecting the first chamber with said source of ambient pressure when the pressure in the first chamber reaches a threshold value. A second fluid passageway (76, 78, 80, 82) connects the first chamber (18) with an outlet (11) and the second chamber (20). A non-return valve (72) is located in the second passageway to prevent hydraulic fluid from flowing from the second chamber (20) to the first chamber (18) at least when the pressure relief valve (70) is open. The non-return valve (72) and the pressure relief valve (70) each have a movable valve member (100, 102, 88; 122) which are mechanically interconnected.
