Abstract: A damper unit in which a structural volume of the unit is reduced. The hydraulic unit includes a damper chamber formed by a stepped bore. A diameter-to-length ratio of the chamber is between 1:3 and 1:12. A closure element of the damper chamber is received with radial pressure in the bore and is retained on the discharge end by an embossed connection. The smaller-diameter portion of the damper chamber bore, when the hydraulic unit is in the position for use, is offset eccentrically upward from the larger-diameter bore portion with an at least approximately horizontally extending bore axis, so that the jackets of both bore portion merge at least approximately in alignment with one another at at least one point. The damper chamber is of slender design and intended to be disposed in a housing block of the hydraulic unit in a way that economizes on installation space and is intended to be simple to vent. The hydraulic unit is intended for use in slip-controlled motor vehicle brake systems.

Abstract: A housing block for a hydraulic braking system which accommodates inlet and outlet solenoid valves in such a way that a flow medium through the inlet and outlet valves is circulated in pairs in immediate succession The inlet solenoid valves are located lower in said housing block than the outlet solenoid valves so that the fluid can flow back to low pressure reservoirs, and air can flow upwards via the outlet solenoid valves to the wheel brake cylinders for the purpose of venting air from the system. The housing block is intended for a hydraulic braking system which is equipped with an anti locking device.
