Abstract

A housing block for a hydraulic unit of a vehicle brake system that retaining a piston pump and an eccentric element that rotates the piston. A motor drives the eccentric element within an eccentric chamber. The block has a cylindrical cavity within a hydraulic leakage reservoir and a fluid leakage path that begins near a lower most portion of the eccentric element chamber and extends to a cylindrical cavity by way of a passage defined by an intersection of the eccentric chamber and cylindrical cavity. A pressure equalization path extends from the eccentric chamber upwardly to a point intermediate the housing block and motor enclosure and into the motor enclosure to a location that is substantially above the eccentric chamber. A seal intermediate the motor enclosure and housing block is formed as a closed curve of mastic material encircling the motor shaft, eccentric chamber, hydraulic leakage reservoir hydraulic fluid leakage path, and pressure equalization path.
