ABSTRACT:
A cover for a reservoir of a master cylinder. The housing of the master cylinder has a plurality of vertical slots located in a flange that surrounds the reservoir. Each of the vertical slots is connected to a locking surface by a slanted surface on the flange. A diaphragm has a series of tabs which are located in the slots to align expandable sections thereon with the reservoir. The cover has a lip with a series of detents located in the lip. To attach the cover to the housing, the detents are located in the slots in the flange and a vertical force is thereafter applied to compress the diaphragm between the flange and the cover. A horizontal force then moves the detents from the slots and over the slanted surface to the locking surface to maintain the seal between the housing and the cover.
