Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
120 words
Device for connecting the brake servo unit to the brake pedal by the piston rod in a motor vehicle, the piston rod (10) of the brake servo unit (4) consisting of an adjustable sleeve-like member (36, 40) connected to the brake servo unit (4) and a rod-like member (38) which enters the sleeve-like member (36, 40) and is connected to the brake pedal (14) acting on a brake light switch (20), or vice versa, characterised in that the rod-like member (38) is provided at the free end with a keyway (44) with which engages a key (42) in the sleeve-like member (36, 40) when the brake servo unit (4) is mounted on the dashboard (2) or a closure panel (60).
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
120 words
Device for connecting the brake servo unit to the brake pedal by the piston rod in a motor vehicle, the piston rod (10) of the brake servo unit (4) consisting of an adjustable sleeve-like member (36, 40) connected to the brake servo unit (4) and a rod-like member (38) which enters the sleeve-like member (36, 40) and is connected to the brake pedal (14) acting on a brake light switch (20), or vice versa, characterised in that the rod-like member (38) is provided at the free end with a keyway (44) with which engages a key (42) in the sleeve-like member (36, 40) when the brake servo unit (4) is mounted on the dashboard (2) or a closure panel (60).
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
50 words
Device according to claim 1 with a piston rod extending through in one piece from the brake servo unit to the brake pedal, characterised in that the piston rod (10) connected to the brake pedal (14) forms a locking connection with the control piston of the brake servo unit (4).
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
48 words
Device according to claim 1, characterised in that on the pedal bracket (16) is provided a spring (48) which acts on the piston rod (10) or the brake pedal (14) in a direction towards the brake servo unit (4) and keeps the brake pedal (14) free from play.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
43 words
Device according to claims 1 to 3, characterised in that after the brake servo unit (4) is mounted over the piston rod (10), the'brake light switch (20) is moved into its final position by the spring force of the brake servo unit (4).
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
51 words
Device according to claims 1 to 4, characterised in that the rod-like member (38) protrudes forwardly through the opening in the dashboard (2) or closure panel (60), and during mounting of the brake servo unit (4) is held by its device in a radial direction and also prevented from moving axially.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
61 words
Device according to claims 1 to 5, characterised in that the brake light switch (20) is disposed in a bush (50) which is mounted on the pedal bracket (16) and in which locking means (52) are provided, and the brake light switch (20) comprises counterlocking means (54) and is axially displaceable in the bush (50), overcoming the locking means (52, 54).
