Abstract
A servo brake system with at least two circuits, equipped with a tandem master cylinder, in which two working pistons are arranged coaxially one behind the other; a transmission shifting device thereby automatically shifts in case of failure of the servo installation to a larger pedal travel with a mechanically applied brake pressure that is reduced within permissive limits; the working piston of the actuating side thereby includes a bore coaxial to the other working piston, in which a plunger piston is guided which is actuatable by the input piston.
