Abstract

In a hydraulic brake system for automotive vehicles with an electronically controlled brake force distribution and with anti-lock control, the rear-wheel brakes are connected via inlet valves (5, 7) closed in their inactive position. Placed in parallel to these valves is an arrangement (13, 14; 13', 14') which is substantially composed of the series connection of a brake force regulator (17, 18, 17', 18') with a throttle (15, 16) or a multiple-way valve (21, 22) which is open in its inactive position.
