A hydraulic unit for a slip control system of a hydraulic vehicle brake system comprises a hydraulic block including a socket, a first port, a pressure change damper, and a second port. The socket has a base and defining a first interior. The first port is located at the base of the socket. The pressure change damper defines a second interior and is positioned in the socket in engagement with the first port. The first port is in fluidic communication with the second interior. The second port is in fluidic communication with the second interior via a portion of the first interior outside of the pressure change damper.

A vehicle brake booster system includes a reservoir, a pump, and a brake booster. The brake booster includes an input member adapted to receive a manual braking input force and an output member adapted to apply a braking output force to a master cylinder. A supply line couples the pump to the brake booster, and a return line couples an outlet of the brake booster to the reservoir. A flow of hydraulic fluid pumped to the brake booster provides a boost factor by which the braking output force exceeds the braking input force. The brake booster is hydraulically lockable by a first valve in the supply line and a second valve in the return line such that when the first and second valves are closed, a quantity of hydraulic fluid is trapped within the brake booster to maintain operation of the brake booster without continued operation of the pump.

An industrial vehicle includes a hydraulically-operated brake device, a hydraulically-operated loading device, an electric motor, a hydraulic pump, a first hydraulic circuit having an accumulator and a detector for detecting pressure accumulated in the accumulator, a first oil passage connecting the first hydraulic circuit and the hydraulic pump, a load handling device, a second hydraulic circuit having a closed center control valve, a second oil passage connecting the second hydraulic circuit and the hydraulic pump, an oil tank, a pressure compensating circuit, a pilot passage, and a controller. When a selector valve is placed in a first position, hydraulic pressure generated by the hydraulic pump is transmitted to a pressure compensating valve in such a direction that disconnects the hydraulic pump from the oil tank to thereby create in the first oil passage hydraulic pressure that causes the accumulator pressure accumulation.

An internal gear pump, in particular a hydraulic pump for a slip-controlled vehicle braking system, is configured to be pre-assembled. The internal gear pump includes a cartridge configured as a casing, which is configured to be inserted in a receptacle in a hydraulic block of a vehicle braking system.

A regulatable brake booster and to a method and a control unit for operating same. Using the method for operating the brake booster, as well as the embodiment of the brake booster, a reaction on a driver may be avoided or reduced by an offset of the brake pedal or by a changed operating force in response to a change in the supporting force. The change in the supporting force is particularly an adjustment of the braking effect of an hydraulic braking system to the braking effect of a regenerative braking system.

A brake system includes a source of pressurized hydraulic fluid, a plurality of wheel brakes, and an iso/dump control valve arrangement associated with at least one wheel brake. A reservoir is connected to the source of pressurized fluid and to the iso/dump control valve arrangement. A fast-replenishing circuit includes a FR iso valve, a venting valve, and a replenishing check valve. The venting and replenishing check valves are interposed between the source of pressurized fluid and the reservoir. The FR iso valve is interposed between the source of pressurized fluid and the iso/dump control valve arrangement. When the source of pressurized fluid reaches a predetermined stroke position, the FR iso valve is energized to restrict movement of fluid from at least one iso/dump control valve arrangement to the source of pressurized fluid. The source of pressurized fluid is re-stroked to draw fluid from the reservoir through the replenishing check valve.

A brake system for a motor vehicle includes an electrohydraulic partial brake system, an electromechanical partial brake system, a redundant power supply, and an actuating device (124). The actuating device is configured to determine an actuation signal quantifying a brake request as a result of an actuation by a vehicle driver. The brake system includes a brake control unit (118) with at least two mutually independent partitions. Both partitions are each configured for controlling the electromechanical partial brake system and the electrohydraulic partial brake system on the basis of an actuating signal received from the actuating device.

A device configured to operate an electromagnetic rail brake, comprising: a tank configured to store a hydraulic fluid, a pressure accumulator, a pump device configured to the feed the hydraulic fluid from the tank to the pressure accumulator in order to load the pressure accumulator with a pressure, a brake connection that is coupled or couplable with the pressure accumulator in order to provide a brake pressure to the additional brake device of the rail vehicle; and a suspension connection to a hydraulic device of a two stage suspension, wherein the suspension connection is coupled or couplable with the pressure accumulator in order to provide the actuation pressure to the hydraulic device.

A brake system includes a master cylinder generating pressure at first and second MC outputs for actuating first and second pairs of wheel brakes. A secondary brake module is configured to provide fluid at first and second PTU outputs for actuating the wheel brakes. The secondary brake module includes an electric motor configured to selectively pressurize the hydraulic fluid by transmitting rotary motion to at least two pump pistons. A pump inlet attenuator is interposed hydraulically between a reservoir and the pump pistons and in direct fluid connection with the reservoir via a single return line. An electronic control unit controls at least one of the secondary brake module and the master cylinder responsive to a brake pressure signal. The pump inlet attenuator regulates pressure in the single return line to reduce pressure fluctuations at an inlet side of each pump piston via solely mechanical pressure attenuation.
