Abstract
A piston (1) for a disk brake is proposed, with the piston having an outer part (4) and an inner part (5) inserted into the outer part (4), wherein a cavity (8) is formed between the outer part (4) and the inner part (5), which cavity is closed in a fluid-tight manner by at least one fluid-tight connection (9, 10) between the inner part (5) and the outer part (4) to prevent ingress of hydraulic fluid.
Claims24
A piston for a disk brake, the piston comprising:
- a contact surface for a brake lining, an outer part forming a piston skirt and an inner part inserted into the outer part;
- the inner part has an opening on a side thereof facing away from the contact surface and, in an interior thereof, a receptacle via which the piston is pressurizable by at least one of a hydraulic fluid or by an actuating means of a parking brake drive;
- a cavity formed between the outer part and the inner part, the cavity is closed fluid-tight by at least one fluid-tight connection between the inner part and the outer part to prevent ingress of hydraulic fluid from the receptacle of the inner part into the cavity, wherein the cavity is closed fluid-tight against ingress of hydraulic fluid from the receptacle of the inner part into the cavity by two of the fluid-tight connections between the inner part and the outer part, which are axially spaced apart from each other with respect to a longitudinal axis of the piston.
A piston for a disk brake, the piston comprising:
- a contact surface for a brake lining, an outer part forming a piston skirt and an inner part inserted into the outer part;
- the inner part has an opening on a side thereof facing away from the contact surface and, in an interior thereof, a receptacle via which the piston is pressurizable by at least one of a hydraulic fluid or by an actuating means of a parking brake drive;
- a cavity formed between the outer part and the inner part, the cavity is closed fluid-tight by at least one fluid-tight connection between the inner part and the outer part to prevent ingress of hydraulic fluid from the receptacle of the inner part into the cavity
- wherein the outer part has a retaining opening for the inner part axially spaced with respect to a longitudinal axis of the piston from an insertion opening for the inner part, and the inner part is arranged in the retaining opening for support on the outer part;
- an insertion opening of the outer part for the inner part is closed fluid-tight by a first of the at least one fluid-tight connection between the outer part and the inner part;
- the outer part has a support section on which the retaining opening for the inner part is formed and via which the inner part is supported on the outer part in a feed direction of the piston;
- and
- a second of the at least one fluid-tight connection at least one of closes the retaining opening fluid-tight or is formed between the support section of the outer part and the inner part.
