Abstract

A hydraulic motor vehicle brake system with dual brake circuits having an anti-skid system and is also further developed to improve vehicle tracking by ways of automatic braking, especially during cornering. During automatic braking, an auxiliary pressure source delivers a pressure medium to an anti-skid system to supply the wheel brakes. For this purpose a separating piston for each brake circuit is located between the auxiliary pressure source and the anti-skid system. For the purpose of keeping costs low, the two separating pistons are accommodated in an integral cylinder with a blind bore.
