Abstract

Abstract Brake fluid pressure control unit improved for smaller size and lower cost. A motor (1) for a pump (3) is mounted in the circuit block (2) and the pump (3) is mounted on one axial end of the motor (1). The pressure adjusting units (26) having solenoid valves (4a) are arranged around the motor (1). The case (1a) of the motor (1) has a portion (16) forming a part of a magnetic circuit through which magnetic fluxes produced in the coils (4e) of the solenoid valves (4a) flow.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 136 words
A brake fluid pressure control unit provided in a fluid passage extending between a master cylinder and wheel cylinders to control the brake fluid pressure in said wheel cylinders, said control unit comprising a circuit block having a pump, a motor for driving said pump, and a pressure adjusting means including solenoid valves for opening and closing fluid passages, said pump in said circuit block being mounted on one axial end of said motor and said pressure adjusting means being provided so as to surround the outer periphery of said motor, said solenoid valves being provided parallel to the motor, said motor having a case having a portion thereof made of a magnetic material, said portion forming a part of a magnetic circuit through which magnetic fluxes produced in the coils of said solenoid valves pass.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 85 words
A brake fluid pressure control unit as claimed in claim 1 wherein said motor has a rear cover made of a magnetic material and mounted to the axial end thereof opposite to said one axial end, said rear cover having a portion protruding outwards from the outer periphery of said motor, said solenoid valves being kept in position by the protruding portion of said rear cover against a brake fluid pressure, said rear cover forming a part of the magnetic circuit of said solenoid valves.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 32 words
A brake fluid pressure control unit as claimed in claims 1 or 2 wherein said motor has a body case which forms a part of the magnetic circuit of said solenoid valves.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 35 words
A brake fluid pressure control unit as claimed in any of claims 1-3 wherein said circuit block is made of a magnetic material and has a portion thereof used as said case of said motor.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 61 words
A brake fluid pressure control unit as claimed in any of claims 2-4 wherein said rear cover of said motor has a housing in which is mounted an electronic control unit having a microcomputer and wherein connectors from said solenoid valves and said motor are guided into said housing and electrically connected to a control circuit on said electronic control unit.
