Abstract: An electromechanical or electromagnetic wheel brake cylinder for a braking system, embodied with at least one hydraulic braking circuit, of a vehicle, including a pressure chamber that is embodied in the electromechanical or electromagnetic wheel brake cylinder and is delimited by a displaceable first brake piston of the electromechanical or electromagnetic wheel brake cylinder, and is linkable to a sub-volume of the at least one hydraulic braking circuit of the braking system in such a way that the first brake piston is displaceable by way of a pressure that is increased at least in in the respective sub-volume. The electromechanical or electromagnetic wheel brake cylinder encompasses an electromechanical or electromagnetic actuator and a second brake piston which is displaceable by operation of the electromechanical or electromagnetic actuator.

Abstract: In a method, which can be performed by a control device for carrying out an emergency braking and/or panic braking of a vehicle, in a first phase, a setpoint vehicle deceleration requested instantaneously by a driver is ignored and a motor of an electromechanical brake booster is operated in a predefined high power mode such that a main brake cylinder pressure in the main brake cylinder is increased; in an intermediate phase, the main brake cylinder pressure is reduced to a setpoint pressure by pumping brake fluid from the main brake cylinder into the at least one wheel brake cylinder and the motor force of the motor is reduced to a setpoint force; and the brake pressure increase in the at least one wheel brake cylinder is continued during a second phase only if the driver requests instantaneously a setpoint vehicle deceleration.

Abstract: A pressure generating device generates a hydraulic pressure as a result of a tensile or compressive load. The device has connections, one of which can be rigidly connected to a frame by way of a mechanism for introducing a mechanical tensile or compressive load, a pressure cylinder and a piston unit extending at least partially and flexibly in the pressure cylinder and bounding a hydraulic chamber filled with hydraulic fluid jointly with the pressure cylinder. The chamber has a simple and inexpensive construction. The connections are connected to the pressure cylinder or the piston unit by way of a coupling device that is configured such that the same hydraulic chamber has pressure applied thereto under tensile load and under compressive load.
