Abstract

A vacuum brake power booster for automotive vehicles has a booster housing with a movable wall and a control housing which carries the movable wall. The control housing includes a main part which is accommodated in a guide tube along with a cover part axially slipped onto the main part. A solenoid for actuating a control valve is positioned in the control housing, and one axial side of the solenoid is mounted in the main part and the other axial side thereof is mounted in the cover part. The cover part has axially projecting centering segments which elastically deform and center the main part in a clearance-free manner during the assembly of the control housing.
