An actuating unit for a brake booster of a vehicle is disclosed, the actuating unit having a housing and a force transmission module which is received displaceably in the housing. The force transmission module has a first force transmission element, a second force transmission element which is couplable or coupled to the first force transmission element so as to transmit force, a spring device which is couplable or coupled to the second force transmission element so as to transmit force and an actuating element which is couplable or coupled to the first force transmission element. The spring device is configured to exert a spring force on the first and/or second force transmission element such that the first and/or second force transmission element is able to be held at least temporarily in a predetermined initial position. The first and/or second force transmission element is adjustable from the initial position counter to the spring force of the spring device by an adjustment path by a force exerted and/or transmitted onto the first force transmission element. The force transmission module is configured to decouple the first force transmission element from the spring device after a defined adjustment path, as well as a brake booster, vehicle brake system and subassembly therefor.
An actuating unit for a brake booster of a vehicle, comprising a housing and a force transmission module received displaceably in the housing, wherein the force transmission module has a first force transmission element, a second force transmission element coupled to the first force transmission element so as to transmit an actuating force, a spring device coupled to the second force transmission element so as to transmit a spring force, and an actuating element coupled to the first force transmission element, wherein the spring device is configured to exert the spring force on the first and/or second force transmission element such that the first and/or second force transmission element is able to be held at least temporarily in an initial position, wherein the first and/or second force transmission element is adjustable from the initial position counter to the spring force of the spring device by an adjustment path by a force exerted onto the first force transmission element, wherein the force transmission module is configured to decouple the first force transmission element from the spring device via rolling bodies that shift after a predetermined distance along the adjustment path.
