What is the working principle of the clutch vacuum booster pump?
1 Answers
The working principle of the clutch vacuum booster pump is: The clutch vacuum booster pump utilizes the principle of air intake during engine operation to create a vacuum on one side of the booster. This generates a pressure difference compared to the normal air pressure on the other side, which is then used to enhance the braking thrust. During operation, the push rod return spring keeps the brake pedal in its initial position. At this time, the one-way valve at the connection point between the vacuum pipe and the vacuum booster is open. Inside the booster, a diaphragm divides it into a vacuum chamber and an application chamber. These two chambers can be interconnected, and for most of the time, they are isolated from the outside. The connection between the chambers and the atmosphere is achieved through a two-valve mechanism.
