An axis of the piston-cylinder unit and an axis of the piston pump may be arranged transversely with respect to each other. The piston-cylinder unit and the pressure supply unit may be arranged in a first housing, and the electromotive drive, the first housing, the valve arrangement, and the electronic control unit may be stacked.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a pressure-volume delivery system comprising a piston-cylinder unit with a piston acting on both sides (dual-action reciprocating piston), said piston having at least two different active surfaces in corresponding pressure chambers and the pressure chambers being connected to at least one consumer via hydraulic lines. The delivery system also comprises a drive for the piston-cylinder unit. According to the invention, the pressure chambers and/or hydraulic lines are interconnected by means of at least one or more switching valves connected in parallel and having a large flow cross-section (AV) and via a short hydraulic line or lines with low flow resistance.

    Abstract: A brake system may include a first pressure supply unit having an electromotive drive and arranged to supply pressure medium to first and second brake circuits; a motor-pump unit to supply pressure medium to at least one of the brake circuits; a second pressure supply unit, connected to the motor-pump unit via first and second hydraulic lines and arranged to supply pressure medium to at least one of the brake circuits; and a valve unit. The second pressure supply unit may be connected via a third hydraulic line to at least one of the brake circuits. The valve unit may include at least one feed valve via which the third hydraulic line may be at least partially reversibly shut off. An isolating valve may be disposed in at least one of the hydraulic lines to at least partially reversibly shut off the at least one hydraulic line.

    Abstract: A brake system includes two brake circuits having brake circuit lines for two vehicle axles and at least one hydraulic wheel brake in each brake circuit. Each wheel brake is connectable to a corresponding brake circuit or brake circuit line via a paired switch valve for pressure build-up and release in the wheel brake using a pressure supply device that can build up pressure in both brake circuits. At least one circuit separating valve blocks or releases a hydraulic connection line connecting the two brake circuits. At least one outlet valve connects an accumulator container to at least one brake circuit to release pressure. A master cylinder having only one working chamber is actuable by a brake pedal. The working chamber is connectable to the brake circuit line of a brake circuit. A switch valve is used to close or release the hydraulic line.

    Abstract: An actuating device for an entirely or partially hydraulic vehicle braking system includes a master brake cylinder with a piston and a working chamber hydraulically connectable to a reservoir, a pedal feel simulator, and, via at least one normally open valve, at least one brake circuit. At least one hydraulic wheel brake is assigned to a brake circuit and connected thereto via at least one separate controllable switching valve. A pressure supply unit has a motor-driven piston and a cylinder. At least one valve assembly includes wheel-specific solenoid pressure control valves. At least one electrical control unit controls valves of the valve assembly and the motor of the pressure supply unit. Outlet valves enable discharge of hydraulic medium from wheel brakes or brake circuits into the reservoir. One housing contains the valve assembly and hydraulic component of the pressure supply unit, and a separate housing contains the master brake cylinder.
