Abstract

An anti-lock-controlled brake system for automotive vehicles is described, with a braking pressure generator (6), connected via a main pressure line (5) to a wheel brake (1) with an auxiliary hydraulic pressure pump (2) connected to an auxiliary pressure line (12), and a pressure medium accumulator (19) connected to a pressure limiting valve (3) control-lable in dependence on the hydraulic pressure of the wheel brake (1). A control of the accumulator pressure and volume within a closed hydraulic system is thereby provided which will take place in dependence on the wheel brake pressure to be in conformity with actual requirements.
