Abstract

A hydraulic assembly for generating brake pressure for a hydraulic brake system, comprising a housing which is produced from a cast blank, having at least one receiving cavity for receiving a connector piece which is connected to a fluid container and which can be plugged along a plug-in axis (S) into the receiving cavity. The cast blank has, in the receiving cavity, at least one substantially planar surface, the normal vector (N) of which is oriented at an oblique inclination angle (W) with respect to the plug-in axis (S).

Claims (12)

1. A hydraulic assembly for generating brake pressure for a hydraulic brake system, the hydraulic assembly comprising:

a housing which is produced from a cast blank, the housing having at least one receiving cavity formed by the cast blank for receiving a connector piece;

the connector piece connected to a fluid container, the connector piece connectable by being plugged along a plug-in axis (S) into the receiving cavity; and

wherein the cast blank has, in the receiving cavity, at least one substantially planar surface, the normal vector (N) of which is oriented at an oblique inclination angle (W) with respect to the plug-in axis (S).

2. The hydraulic assembly as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the inclination angle (W) lies in a range between 30° and 60°.

3. The hydraulic assembly as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the housing comprises at least one piston bore for receiving at least one primary piston and has a connecting bore with a bore axis (B), which connecting bore connects the receiving cavity to the piston bore, wherein an inlet point of the connecting bore opens out in the surface, and the bore axis (B) is oriented parallel to the normal vector (N).

4. The hydraulic assembly as claimed in claim 3 , wherein an outlet point of the connecting bore opens into a radially inside groove which is arranged in a lateral surface of the piston bore.

5. The hydraulic assembly as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the bore axis (B) runs with a minimum spacing (A), which is larger than a radius of the connecting bore, with respect to an inner lateral surface of the receiving cavity.

6. The hydraulic assembly as claimed in claim 3 , wherein an inner lateral surface of the receiving cavity in the housing is subjected to machining at least in regions, and the connecting bore is formed in the cast blank prior to the machining of the lateral surface.

7. The hydraulic assembly as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the surface in the receiving cavity is removed at least in regions by machining.

8. The hydraulic assembly as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the surface is provided for orthogonal contact of a tip of a drilling tool.

9. The hydraulic assembly as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the assembly is a master brake cylinder with primary piston and secondary piston arranged one behind the other in a tandem construction in a piston bore.
