Abstract: The invention relates to a vehicle braking system, the slip of which can be regulated electronically, for which, in the event of an automatic braking process, the activation of the foot pedal by the driver, does not result in a significant actuating path. The driver therefore disadvantageously perceives different pedal actuating characteristics in the foot actuated and automatic braking operations. According to the invention, a method is proposed for controlling a vehicle braking system, the slip of which is regulated electronically, and with which pedal actuating characteristics, which are largely uniform in the different operating states of the vehicle braking system can be produced. To achieve this, a valve unit is controlled in such a way that a pressure medium flows from the wheel brake to the pressure medium reservoir and the drive motor of the pressure generator is controlled in parallel.

Abstract: The invention relates to a vehicle hydraulic brake system with electrohydraulic brake boosting by a piston pump. In order to reduce pressure pulsations on an intake side of the multi-piston pump, the brake system embodies a multi-piston pump, for example, as a six-piston pump with stepped pistons that are driven with an alternating phase shift of 30° and 90° in relation to one another. The phase shift of the drive of the stepped pistons is selected so that the intake volume flows have a uniform phase shift, by which the total intake volume flow of the multi-piston pump has a reduced amplitude of the pressure pulsation, which reduces the repercussions on a master cylinder.

Abstract: The invention is based on a dual-circuit anti-lock vehicle brake system (10) with a tandem master cylinder (12), a switchover valve (14) following the latter, a brake pressure modulation valve assembly (18, 20) that has a brake pressure buildup valve (18) and a brake pressure reduction valve (20) for each wheel brake cylinder (16), and a return pump (24). To enable building up brake pressure rapidly for vehicle dynamics control, the invention proposes one additional pump (28) in each brake circuit (I, II), whose intake side is connected directly to the master cylinder (12) and which feeds in the direction of the wheel brake cylinders (16) connected to to this brake circuit (I, II). As a result, a brake pressure buildup is possible in each wheel brake cylinder (16), even when the master cylinder (12) is not actuated, which buildup can be modulated for individual wheels in a manner known per se.

Abstract: The invention relates to a hydraulic vehicle brake system with a master cylinder, with two brake circuits (I, II), with wheel brakes connected to the brake circuits (I, II), and with a wheel slip regulator device disposed between the master cylinder and the wheel brakes, which device has at least one brake pressure modulation valve device and at least one high pressure pump, and with a pump unit associated with this high pressure pump. In the automatic braking operation by means of at least one of the high pressure pumps, the pump unit is used for supplying hydraulic fluid to the high pressure pump. The pump unit has a low pressure pump in the form of a gear pump.

Abstract: A vehicle hydraulic brake system having brake pressure modulation valve assemblies, between a dual-circuit master cylinder and wheel brakes of vehicle wheels. The pump device is embodied as a low-pressure pump with the brake pressure modulation valve assemblies be assigned a first and second return pump and that in the automatic braking mode the first pressure chamber is made to communicate with a first return pump and the second pressure chamber is made to communicate with the second return pump, on the inlet side in both cases. The low-pressure pump, in the automatic braking mode, generates charge pressure for the return pumps that is substantially below a maximum brake pressure, and the return pumps generate the maximum projected brake pressure and serve, in the additionally possible anti-lock mode, to return pressure fluid from the wheel brakes to the master cylinder.

Abstract: In a first region of the driver's braking command, regenerative braking produces almost all of the braking torque, whereas the friction brake produces essentially no braking torque. In this region of the braking command, the pressure medium flowing into the wheel brake cylinder as a result of the driver's actuation of the brake pedal, is conducted by appropriate control back to a storage chamber. The first region is limited by a threshold brake pedal travel which corresponds to the maximum braking torque available from the motor. When pedal travel exceeds this threshold, the friction brake and the motor both effect braking.

Abstract: A hydraulic braking system having an apparatus for anti-lock control and for generating a differential lock by brake engagement, has a structurally simplified control unit, without any reduction in function. In its brake circuit II for driven vehicle wheels, the braking system with TT brake circuit distribution has valve assemblies associated with the wheel brakes and having an inlet valve and at least one outlet valve for brake pressure modulation. On the master cylinder side, a blocking valve is disposed in a brake line leading to the wheel brakes. A high-pressure pump with a charging valve in a suction line is capable of pumping brake fluid into the brake line.

Abstract: When braking occurs but the ABS is not in operation, the brakes at the rear wheels are isolated from the master cylinder by a solenoid valve. Brake pressure at the rear wheels is then provided by a pump and regulated so that the slower rear wheel runs slower than the faster front wheel by a given small speed difference.
