Abstract: Disclosed is a motor-pump assembly (1) for a brake actuating device of a motor vehicle brake system with a pneumatic brake booster. An electric motor (3) drives a double diaphragm pump (2) with two working diaphragms (4) which are located opposite one another. Air expelled from the working spaces (7) is directed into an interior space (22) surrounding a crank drive (8) of the pump housing (5). An air outlet unit (13) permits low-noise expulsion of the air from the interior space 22 by deflecting the air. In order to make available a low-noise, cost-reduced motor-pump assembly the eccentrics (9) each have an unbalance weight (25) integrally molded onto the eccentric (9).

Abstract: To ensure pressure compensation and the replenishment function of a master cylinder, the present invention discloses the provision of supply channels configured as slits (40). The slits (40) are adequate to ensure pressure compensation and the replenishment action when the brake system is bled. Due to their large cross-section, the slits permit a large fluid flow which is required, for example, to supply the pump in brake systems which independently initiate a braking operation.
