VEHICLE BRAKE SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR OPERATING A BRAKE SYSTEM
A brake system includes a brake command that is electronically transmittable to the brake system. It comprises a first and second electromechanical pressure generating units, that can implement the brake command and that are fluidically connected with one hydraulic brake circuit. Multiple actuator valves are assigned respectively to one brake actuator at a vehicle wheel and can either be pressurized or de-pressurized. Both pressure generating units are designed to supply sufficient brake pressure to actuate all brake actuators. During normal operation the first pressure generating unit supplies the requested brake pressure up to a normal maximal value. Additionally, potential peak brake pressures, that exceed the normal maximum value, are supplied by the second pressure generating unit. In event of failure of the second pressure generating unit the entire brake pressure is supplied by the first pressure generating unit, whereby the brake pressure is limited to the normal maximum value, and in an emergency mode when the first pressure generating unit fails the entire brake pressure in the brake circuit will be supplied via the second pressure generating unit, whereby the brake pressure is limited to the normal maximum value or an emergency maximum value.
