Abstract
An apparatus for damping pressure fluctuations in hydraulic motor vehicle systems with an anti-skid and/or traction control system, the apparatus comprises a throttle and a pressure limiting valve. The apparatus comprises a sleeve-like housing with a screen-like throttle body received in it along with a prestressed compression spring with which the throttle body is supported on the bottom of the housing. The housing and the throttle body are embodied as molded sheet-metal parts. On its bottom, the housing has an opening, with a valve seat, made by stamping without metal cutting, of a pressure limiting valve, which is engaged by the throttle body, which has a stamped bulge of rounded shape. A throttle opening of the throttle body, located in the bulge, is disposed coaxially with the larger-diameter opening of the housing. The apparatus can be used in hydraulic motor vehicle brake systems with an anti-skid and/or traction control system.
