METHOD OF ADJUSTING LOST MOTION OF TANDEM MASTER CYLINDER AND TANDEM MASTER CYLINDER THEREFOR

摘要

PURPOSE: To easily adjust a lost motion without disassembling a tandem master cylinder. CONSTITUTION: A threaded rod 56 slidably mounted on a sleeve 50 is screwed to the threaded orifice 64 of a primary piston 16, and a primary spring 26 is arranged between a sleeve 50 and the primary piston 16 to separately hold the primary and secondary pistons 16, 22. The rod 56 is rotated from the outside of a master cylinder, the maximum separation quantity between both pistons 16, 22 limited by a stop washer 58 on the rod 56 is adjusted, and a lost motion can be set to the minimum.
