Abstract
An electronically slip-regulated vehicle brake system is configured to change from an external force powered operating brake mode into a muscle-powered auxiliary brake mode, and includes a master brake cylinder configured to be operated, a pedal travel simulator configured to simulate an operating travel of the master brake cylinder during the operating brake mode, and a simulator control valve. The simulator includes two pressure chambers. The control valve is configured to control a flow of pressure medium into a first of the two pressure chambers from the master brake cylinder, and is disposed in a return line connecting a wheel brake to a reservoir tank at a position downstream of a connection point at which a second of the two pressure chambers of the simulator is connected to the return line.
