The booster includes a casing subdivided into two chambers by a moveable wall having a diaphragm which has an internal edge bead disposed in an annular groove in the control valve housing of the booster. An annular retention ring surrounds the bead of the diaphragm to the outside of the bead and radially retains the edge bead within the control valve housing groove.
