Abstract: A piston pump for the hydraulic energy supply in a motor vehicle, comprising a piston that is movably arranged in a stepped bore of an accommodating member that is provided with a closure, the piston carries a seat for an elastic sealing element which accommodates the sealing element with axial play, and with radial elastic preload for the purpose of sealing between piston and cylinder. The seat for the sealing element has a structure which generates forces pointing radially towards a piston axis and expanding the sealing element in a radial direction, and that the structure produces an elastic deformation of the sealing element for an increased and dosed sealing contact pressure between piston and cylinder.

Abstract: A pump assembly for a controlled brake system diverts pressure fluid entrained by the pistons which collects in the space around the eccentric to prevent it from becoming pressurized by the moving pistons. A non-return valve inserted into an exit duct is dimensioned such that it opens when exposed to the pressure of the collected pressure fluid, and prevents the ingress of dirt and moisture in the opposite direction.
