Abstract

A brake system arranged for the control both of the brake slip and of the traction slip is presented. In order that during a traction slip control action the brake circuits are rapidly supplied with the required volume of hydraulic pressure fluid at a sufficiently high pressure level, a medium-pressure accumulator is provided which is connected to the suction side of the pump and whose pressure supplied upstream of the pump is higher than the resistances in the brake circuit, in particular higher than the sum of the opening pressures of the suction-side and delivery-side valves of the pump plus the resistance of the wheel brake.
