  • Patent number: 5501514
    Abstract: A vehicle hydraulic brake system having an anti-lock protection device and an automatic braking system, particularly when driving around bends. During automatic braking, an auxiliary pressure source supplies a pressure instead of the main brake cylinder and this pressure can be individually set by pressure reduction in the wheel brakes by means of the anti-lock protection device. For this purpose, cylinders with separating pistons are located between the auxiliary pressure source and the anti-lock protection device. The auxiliary pressure source supplies substantially lower auxiliary pressures than known systems by supplying pressure to the inlets of feed-back pumps by arranging valves which permit temporary pressure increases to the extent necessary for automatic braking by means of these feed-back pumps. The system requires less energy and less noise is caused in automatic braking operations.

  • Patent number: 5403076
    Abstract: A hydraulic motor vehicle brake system with dual brake circuits having an anti-skid system and is also further developed to improve vehicle tracking by ways of automatic braking, especially during cornering. During automatic braking, an auxiliary pressure source delivers a pressure medium to an anti-skid system to supply the wheel brakes. For this purpose a separating piston for each brake circuit is located between the auxiliary pressure source and the anti-skid system. For the purpose of keeping costs low, the two separating pistons are accommodated in an integral cylinder with a blind bore.

  • Patent number: 5401083
    Abstract: A hydraulic motor vehicle brake system having anti-skid system and further developed to improve vehicle tracking, especially during cornering by means of automatic braking. With automatic braking an auxiliary pressure source delivers a pressure medium to an anti-skid system, by means of which braking pressures can be individually adjusted in the wheel brakes. For this purpose a cylinder with separating piston sections is located between the auxiliary pressure source and the anti-skid system, wherein the separating piston is installed into 2/2-way valves including lip sealing rings. The embodiment in accordance with the invention include cylinders, with valve openings in cooperation with the lip sealing rings, which results in economical 2/2-way valves.
