Abstract
A hydraulic braking system having: at least one wheel brake cylinder; a primary brake pressure generator that is disconnectably hydraulically coupled to the at least one wheel brake cylinder and is embodied to impinge upon the at least one wheel brake cylinder with pressure by way of a hydraulic fluid; a brake master cylinder that has at least one first pressure chamber and to which at least one wheel brake cylinder is hydraulically coupled; and a secondary brake pressure generator that is coupled to the first pressure chamber of the brake master cylinder and is embodied to impinge upon the first pressure chamber of the brake master cylinder with pressure, the secondary brake pressure generator being controllable independently of the primary brake pressure generator. Also disclosed is a related method.
