<p>A fluid-pressure operated servo-motor assembly transmits an effort from a pedal to a master cylinder for wheel brakes. The assembly includes in a housing, a pedal-operated input member, an output member acting on the master cylinder and a movable wall for transmitting the effort between them. The effort is augmented by fluid pressure in a boost chamber acting on the movable wall. The boost pressure is controlled by a valve in a stationary part of the housing. An operating assembly controls operation of the valve, and comprises a non-rotatable operating member, and a rotatable actuating member co-operating with the valve. To ensure positive operation of the valve, a helical engagement provided between the operating and actuating members, and the co-operation of the valve with the actuating member are arranged so that relative axial movement between the members causes rotation of the actuating member to operate the valve.</p> |
