Patent attributes
A master cylinder device includes a reservoir tank, a master cylinder, a piston, and a pair of cup seals. The master cylinder includes a cylinder body having a cylinder chamber and a master port. The piston is inserted into the cylinder chamber, and has a relief port that communicates with the master port. The cup seals are provided on an inner circumference of the cylinder chamber, being positioned in front and rear of the master port, and seals a space between the inner circumference of the cylinder chamber and an outer circumference of the piston. The relief port is closed by the front cup seal, as the piston moves forward, to generate brake fluid pressure in a brake fluid in a hydraulic chamber. The relief port is tilted from a front side to a rear side, from the outer circumference toward an inner circumference of the piston.
