An electrohydraulic power pressure generator for a vehicle braking system which includes an electric motor, a planetary gear, a screw drive, and a piston cylinder unit. To prevent the brake fluid from entering the electric motor, there is a drive shaft between the electric motor and the planetary gear which is rotatably fixedly connected to a motor shaft via a slot coupling and which is sealed by a radial shaft sealing ring.

The invention relates to a method for decelerating a motor vehicle at least during emergency braking, in which method a first braking torque is applied to at least one front wheel of the motor vehicle by means of at least one service brake system of the motor vehicle. According to the invention, at least one parking brake different from the at least one service brake system is activated by a control apparatus of the motor vehicle and a second braking torque is thereby applied to the at least one front wheel while the first braking torque is applied. A further aspect of the invention relates to a motor vehicle.

A method for adjusting brake pressures of a motor vehicle includes actuating, by a control unit, while taking into account determined dynamic state variables of wheels that are to be braked, a pressure control valve with an inlet valve for ventilating and with an outlet valve for venting the brake pressure line that is controlled by the pressure control valve. The control times of the outlet valve are determined depending on control of the inlet valve.

A method for decelerating a vehicle combination including a towing vehicle having a towing vehicle brake system and at least one trailer vehicle having a trailer brake system with an anti-lock brake system includes applying, by the towing vehicle brake system, a brake pressure to pneumatically operable wheel brakes of the towing vehicle according to a desired deceleration specified by a driver, and providing, by the towing vehicle brake system, a trailer brake pressure for the trailer brake system of the at least one trailer vehicle. An electronic brake control unit of the towing vehicle brake system: detects a current actual vehicle deceleration value continuously compares the current actual vehicle deceleration actual value with a maximum deceleration, and, when the current actual vehicle deceleration value reaches or exceeds the maximum deceleration, limits the brake pressure and provides an information signal.

A rotational monitoring system of at least one axle designed to identify at least one axle controlled by it having an estimated instantaneous linear speed lower than a predetermined instantaneous linear limit speed, and remove the braking force to one or more wheels of the axle identified to have an estimated instantaneous linear speed lower than the predetermined instantaneous linear limit speed, by canceling a pressure to brake cylinders associated with the at least one axle identified to have an estimated instantaneous linear speed lower than the predetermined instantaneous linear limit speed. The cancellation of a pressure is obtained by acting on an electro-pneumatic valve designed to perform a Remote Release function associated with the pneumatic circuits generating braking pressure for the brake cylinders and adapted to cancel a residual braking pressure.
