Hydraulic unit for generating brake pressure for a hydraulic brake system
A hydraulic unit for generating brake pressure for a hydraulic brake system, comprising a housing which is produced from a cast blank, wherein the cast blank has at least one receiving cavity which is provided for machining to form a receiving profile for sealingly receiving a connecting piece, which is connected to a fluid container and can be plugged into the receiving profile along a plug-in axis, wherein the housing comprises at least one piston bore for receiving at least one piston, which is driven along a piston bore axis into the cast blank.
1. A hydraulic unit for generating brake pressure for a hydraulic brake system, the hydraulic unit comprising:
a housing which is produced from a cast blank, wherein the cast blank has at least one receiving cavity which is provided for machining to form a receiving profile for sealingly receiving a connecting piece, which is connected to a fluid container and can be plugged into the receiving profile along a plug-in axis;
wherein the housing comprises at least one piston bore for receiving at least one piston, which is driven along a piston bore axis into the cast blank; and
wherein the receiving cavity is non-circular in a section transversely with respect to the plug-in axis and is stretched along the piston bore axis.
2. The hydraulic unit as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the receiving cavity is cup-shaped with an opening and a base, and the base is flat and non-circular and is stretched along the piston bore axis.
3. The hydraulic unit as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the base is provided in elliptical form.
4. The hydraulic unit as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the base has a elliptical or round basic shape with at least one extension surface, which is connected to the basic shape along the piston bore axis and is provided in narrower form transversely with respect to the piston bore axis than the basic shape.
5. The hydraulic unit as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the housing has a connecting bore for hydraulically connecting the receiving cavity to the piston bore which is bored directly into the base and is oriented orthogonally with respect thereto.
6. The hydraulic unit as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the connecting bore opens into a radially inside groove which is arranged in a lateral surface of the piston bore.
7. The hydraulic unit as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the receiving cavity is arranged in an elevation protruding outward on the cast blank transversely with respect to the piston bore axis.
8. The hydraulic unit as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the cast blank is produced from an aluminum alloy by permanent mold casting.
9. The hydraulic unit as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the unit is a master brake cylinder with a first piston and a second piston arranged one behind the other in a tandem construction in the piston bore.
