Abstract

A master cylinder includes: a cylinder housing; a piston which is movably disposed in the cylinder housing so as to form a pressure chamber and a hydraulic fluid supplying chamber; a sealing member which is interposed between the cylinder housing and the piston. The piston has a plurality of communication holes for connecting the pressure chamber and the hydraulic fluid supplying chamber, and the plurality of communication holes are formed on a slanted surface which is provided to an outer surface of the piston.

Claims (24)

1. A master cylinder comprising:

a cylinder housing having a hydraulic fluid supplying chamber;

a piston movably disposed in the cylinder housing and having a pressure chamber; and

a sealing member interposed between the cylinder housing and the piston,

wherein the piston has a plurality of communication holes for connecting the pressure chamber and the hydraulic fluid supplying chamber,

wherein the plurality of communication holes are disposed on a slanted portion of an outer surface of the piston,

wherein the plurality of communication holes are located sequentially in a rearward direction from a first communication hole of the plurality of communication holes, which is front-most disposed, up to a second communication hole of the plurality of communication holes, which is rear-most disposed, and subsequently are located sequentially in a forward direction from the second communication hole up to the first communication hole, and

wherein the plurality of the communication holes comprise a third communication hole having a center line perpendicular to a longitudinal direction of the piston and a fourth communication hole having a center line inclined with respect to the longitudinal direction of the piston such that a radial outer end thereof becomes closer to a rear side of the piston.

2. A master cylinder comprising:

a cylinder housing having a hydraulic fluid supplying chamber;

a piston movably disposed in the cylinder housing and having a pressure chamber; and

a sealing member interposed between the cylinder housing and the piston,

wherein the piston has a plurality of communication holes for connecting the pressure chamber and the hydraulic fluid supplying chamber,

wherein the plurality of communication holes are disposed on a slanted portion of an outer surface of the piston,

wherein the plurality of communication holes are located sequentially in a rearward direction so that a first communication hole of the plurality of communication holes, which is front-most disposed, and a second communication hole of the plurality of communication holes, which is rear-most disposed, are located adjacently and spaced from one another by a predetermined distance, and

wherein the plurality of the communication holes comprise a third communication hole having a center line perpendicular to a longitudinal direction of the piston and a fourth communication hole having a center line inclined with respect to the longitudinal direction of the piston such that a radial outer end thereof becomes closer to a rear side of the piston.

3. A piston configured to be installed in a cylinder housing of a master cylinder, the piston comprising a plurality of communication holes respectively configured to communicate with an inner side and an outer side thereof,

wherein the plurality of communication holes are disposed on a slanted portion of an outer surface of the piston,

wherein the plurality of communication holes are located sequentially in a rearward direction from a first communication hole of the plurality of communication holes, which is front-most disposed, up to a second communication hole of the plurality of communication holes, which is rear-most disposed, and subsequently are located sequentially in a forward direction from the second communication hole up to the first communication hole, and

wherein the plurality of the communication holes comprise a third communication hole having a center line perpendicular to a longitudinal direction of the piston and a fourth communication hole having a center line inclined with respect to the longitudinal direction of the piston such that a radial outer end thereof becomes closer to a rear side of the piston.

4. A piston configured to be installed in a cylinder housing of a master cylinder, the piston comprising a plurality of communication holes respectively configured to communicate with an inner side and an outer side thereof,

wherein the plurality of communication holes are disposed on a slanted portion of an outer surface of the piston,

wherein the plurality of communication holes are located sequentially in a rearward direction so that a first communication hole of the plurality of communication holes, which is front-most disposed, and a second communication hole of the plurality of communication holes, which is rear-most disposed, are located adjacently and spaced from one another by a predetermined distance, and

wherein the plurality of the communication holes comprise a third communication hole having a center line perpendicular to a longitudinal direction of the piston and a fourth communication hole having a center line inclined with respect to the longitudinal direction of the piston such that a radial outer end thereof becomes closer to a rear side of the piston.
