Abstract

The servomotor, of the vacuum type, comprises a housing composed of two shells, each comprising a peripheral sleeve and a side end wall. The shells include a connecting web between the sleeve and the side wall, parabolic in profile, due to which the resultant of shearing and traction stresses is minimal, which allows the thickness of the shell material to be significantly reduced. Applications are braking systems with vacuum servomotor for motor vehicles.
