Abstract

Hydraulic braking system with slip control, comprises a working piston guided within the brake pressure generator, a booster piston of a hydraulic brake force booster for actuating the working piston, at least one wheel brake connected to the brake pressure generator and an electrically operable auxiliary pressure source adapted to be connected to the brake force booster, a control and regulating electronic unit for detecting the wheel rotating pattern and for controlling the wheel brake pressure by means of pressure modulating valves, and an electronic sensor means for detecting the relative movement between the push rod and the booster piston, the output signals of which sensor means are capable of influencing the operation of the auxiliary pressure source, wherein the auxiliary pressure source includes a quick-fill piston which is guided within a servo cylinder arranged on a servo drive.
