Abstract (en)

[origin: DE19938040C1] The brake booster includes a spring (42) which pretensions the armature (38) against the operating direction and can be mechanically coupled to the input member (26) so that it dampens the return lift movement of the input member, which takes place when the armature is released from the permanent magnet (40), before the input member has run through its maximum possible return lift relative to the control valve housing (24). A transfer piston (30) rigidly coupled to the input member has in the region of its end remote from same a ring groove (46) with fixed axial extension (s) in which a ring disc (44) is axially displaceable against which the end of the spring remote from the armature is supported. The ring groove is dimensioned and positioned with its axial extension (s) so that the disc only comes into contact with the edge of the ring groove remote from the input member after the armature is released from the permanent magnet.
