Abstract

In a brake device for vehicle brake systems, having at least one pressure sensor for measuring the brake pressure and having an electronic control unit for evaluating measured values and generating control signals, for the sake of simplified fully automatic assembly of the brake device, the electronic control unit is accommodated in a housing fitted over the at least one pressure sensor and establishes the electrical connection between the pressure sensor and the electronic control unit by means of spring contact pins, which are braced with spring force on their face ends on opposed contact faces associated with the pressure sensor and the electronic control unit.
