Brake cylinder oil leakage solution - for the interface don’t match the situation

Apr 22, 2023 Leave a message

Abstract: An assumption is made about the oil leakage of the brake cylinder due to the mismatch of the interface, and a convenient solution is proposed.

A leak in the brakewheel cylinder of a vehicle's braking system can have severe consequences. This component is responsible for the transfer of hydraulic pressure from the brake pedal to the brake shoes, which ultimately stops the vehicle. If oil is leaking from this cylinder, it can cause a loss of brake pressure, resulting in a decrease in braking power or even a complete failure of the brakes. This is a serious safety concern, as it can lead to accidents, injuries, and even fatalities.

Two hypothetical situations that would result in brake cylinder brake fluid leaks

1.Thread Too Shallow

The processing depth of the thread size is too shallow, resulting in the brake oil pipe not turning to the bottom.

2.Interface Matching Type Is Inconsistent

The type of copper nozzle and brake hose interface is inconsistent, resulting in the inability to complete the fit.

Propose a solution based on the above situation
  • Add copper spacers to fill the gap.

We take advantage of the soft metal properties of copper, and choose a copper gasket with a thickness greater than the distance between the hose and the copper nozzle at the bottom for better results.

  • Rubber-clad iron for brake hose and brake cylinder,prevent air from entering.

Final Test Result

We specially processed a brake cylinder with shallow threads(Theoretically requires a thread depth of 10 mm, we made 9 mm) to verify our solution.
