Abstract

A pump assembly for a controlled brake system diverts pressure fluid entrained by the pistons which collects in the space around the eccentric to prevent it from becoming pressurized by the moving pistons. A non-return valve inserted into an exit duct is dimensioned such that it opens when exposed to the pressure of the collected pressure fluid, and prevents the ingress of dirt and moisture in the opposite direction.
