Abstract: An electromechanical brake booster is disclosed. The brake booster is constructed with two worm gears which run in opposite directions and whose axial forces compensate one another. The worm gears drive toothed rack gears which convert a rotational driving movement into a translatory output movement for activating a master brake cylinder. As a result of the provision of two gear paths, the loading of each gear path is halved and an application of force to a booster body, which forms a gear output, is symmetrical.

Abstract: A method for actuating a hydraulic vehicle brake system, includes a master brake cylinder with a preferably electromechanical brake booster and a wheel slip control device. The master brake cylinder is actuated simultaneously with the brake booster, and hydraulic pumps of the wheel slip control device are driven by an electric motor. Pressure builds more quickly in the wheel brakes of the vehicle brake system for safety and assistance functions that require high pressure build-up dynamic. The method also increases the wheel brake pressure using the pressure that can be generated by actuating the master brake cylinder with the brake booster.

Abstract: A method for operating a hydraulic vehicle braking system that has an anti-lock control unit is disclosed. The system includes a brake master cylinder having an electromechanical brake booster. As the pressure level of the vehicle braking system decreases during an anti-lock control, in which all vehicle wheels are controlled, the boosting force of the brake booster is reduced in an anti-lock control of this type.

Abstract: A method for operating a hydraulic vehicle braking system having an electromechanical brake booster is disclosed. A shut-off valve that is located between a brake master cylinder and wheel brakes is closed to maintain a wheel-brake pressure and thus a braking force. To maintain a constant braking force, no current must be applied to an electric motor of the brake booster. The vehicle braking system can be used as a parking brake. The shut-off valve is present if the vehicle braking system has an anti-lock control device.

Abstract: The invention relates to an electromechanical brake booster having a piston rod to be actuated using muscular power, and an electromechanical actuator. Muscular power acting upon the pedal rod is transmitted via an elastic transmission element, for example a spring element, and the actuator power is transmitted separately thereof via its proper elastic transmission element which has for example a number of spring elements and dampers arranged in parallel thereto. The controllable brake booster is operated depending on a variable representing the relative deviation of the booster body and the input element. The brake booster according to the invention allows the adjustment of a booster characteristic which is variable in a wide range and which inter alia can depend on an actuation path, an actuation speed and/or an actuation acceleration. The switch-over to different modes, for example a sports mode, is also possible.

Abstract: In a method for stabilizing a vehicle motion of a single-track motor vehicle, e.g., a motorcycle, an angle of inclination of the motor vehicle relative to the roadway is recorded via inclination sensors and, after the processing of the angle of inclination in a computing device, a control signal based on this is supplied to a control device for bringing about a stabilization intervention in the vehicle motion, the attitude angle of the motor vehicle being recorded and jointly processed in the control device, using at least one attitude angle recording sensor.
