Abstract
A pressure-unbalanced hydraulic amplifier valve assembly has an axially slidable amplifier piston and a control plunger axially slidably arranged in the amplifier piston with a loose fit to permit a slight radial movement thereof in the amplifier piston. For providing a tight seal in the zone of control ports arranged in the amplifier piston, the control plunger is urged in that zone radially against the amplifier piston by a transverse piston continuously exposed to the system pressure. A pressure piston engages one end of the control plunger and is exposed to an external force (such as a braking force applied by a pedal) for axially displacing the control plunger. In order to eliminate undesired axial force components from the force applied by the transverse piston, a force-transmitting ball contacts the transverse piston and an inner wall of the control plunger forming a throughgoing axial bore and constituting an axially linear track for the ball. In order to eliminate undesired transverse force components from the force exerted by the pressure piston on the control plunger, these two components contact one another by means of mutually transversely arranged pins which are solely in a point contact with one another.

Important Notes on Latency of Status data
Please note there is up to 60 days of latency in this Status indicator for certain status conditions. You can obtain up-to-date Status indicator readings by ordering PAIR for the file.
An application with the status "Published" (which means it is pending) may be recently abandoned, but not yet updated to reflect its abandoned status. However, an application filed less than one year ago is unlikely to be abandoned.
A patent with the status "Granted" may be recently expired, but not yet updated to reflect its expired status. However, it is highly unlikely a patent less than 3.5 years old would be expired.
An application with the status "Abandoned" is almost always current, but there is a small chance it was recently revived and the status not yet updated.
Important Note on Priority Date data
This priority date is an estimated earliest priority date and is purely an estimation. This date should not be taken as legal conclusion. No representations are made as to the accuracy of the date listed. Please consult a legal professional before relying on this date.
