Piston pump assembly for a hydraulic power vehicle braking system
A piston pump assembly for a hydraulic power vehicle braking system including an electric motor, a planetary gear set, a helical gear, and a piston which is displaceable in a cylinder. To prevent the piston from rotating in the cylinder, cylinder pins are situated in grooves at an inner side of the cylinder and engage with the recesses in a flange of the piston. Due to reshaping, the grooves are closed at one end, so that the cylinder pins are axially secured.
1. A piston pump assembly for a hydraulic power vehicle braking system, comprising:
an electric motor;
a helical gear which is rotatably drivable with the aid of the electric motor and converts a rotary motion of the electric motor into a displacement; and
a piston/cylinder unit including a piston which is displaceable in a cylinder with the aid of the helical gear;
wherein: (i) the cylinder includes at an inside, or (ii) the piston includes at an outside, a groove which runs in a displacement direction of the piston in the cylinder and with which a torque support element engages which is established at at least one of the piston and in the cylinder in the circumferential direction, to prevent the piston from rotating in the cylinder, and the groove has a constriction at one end, so that the torque support element is not able to axially exit, wherein the constriction of the groove is produced by reshaping at least one of the cylinder and the piston.
2. The piston pump assembly as recited in claim 1 , wherein one of the piston or the cylinder, includes a receptacle, which is situated opposite the groove, in which the torque support element is situated and which is open at the one end at which the groove has the constriction.
3. The piston pump assembly as recited in claim 1 , wherein the torque support element is inserted in the displacement direction into the groove without the constriction.
4. The piston pump assembly as recited in claim 1 , wherein the torque support element is a cylinder pin.
5. A piston pump assembly for a hydraulic power vehicle braking system, comprising:
an electric motor;
a helical gear which is rotatably drivable with the aid of the electric motor and converts a rotary motion of the electric motor into a displacement and
a piston/cylinder unit including a piston which is displaceable in a cylinder with the aid of the helical gear;
wherein: (i) the cylinder includes at an inside, or (ii) the piston includes at an outside, a groove which runs in a displacement direction of the piston in the cylinder and with which a torque support element engages which is established at at least one of the piston and in the cylinder in the circumferential direction, to prevent the piston from rotating in the cylinder, and the groove has a constriction at one end, so that the torque support element is not able to axially exit, wherein at least one of the cylinder and the piston includes a circumferential groove at a front end and the constriction is produced by bending a groove flank of the groove.
