Abstract

A hydraulic brake system with slip control for automotive vehicles comprising a master cylinder (2) pressurizable by a hydraulic power booster (1), in which system valve(s) (31,27,32,28,33,23) are inserted between the master cylinder (2) and the wheel brakes (29,30,24,25) connected to the master cylinder (2) which allow pressure fluid removal from the wheel brakes (29,30,24,25) that can be replenished out of the pressure chamber (19) of the hydraulic power booster (1) by way of a change-over valve (36). A stroke limitation of the brake pedal (8) is effected during slip control. The end surface of the master cylinder piston (5) close to the working chamber (16) being larger than the is effective surface of the booster piston (4), and wherein a stepped piston is employed as master cylinder piston (5) with an annular surface (18) thereof being adapted to be acted upon in the actuating direction by the pressure prevailing in the working chamber (16). A non-return valve (37, 38) is connected to the change-over valve (36) normally assuming its closed position through which the wheel brakes (29,30,24,25) can reacted upon directly by the pressure prevailing in the pressure chamber (10) of …
