In order to detect air in a brake master cylinder within a hydraulic power brake system, a brake master cylinder pressure on actuation of the brake master cylinder is compared with a comparison pressure which prevails in the brake master cylinder when it is air-free. For bleeding, brake fluid is conveyed with a power brake pressure generator through the in this case non-actuated brake master cylinder into a pressureless brake fluid reservoir, where air escapes from the brake fluid.

A brake system for selectively actuating at least one of a pair of front wheel brakes and a pair of rear wheel brakes includes a reservoir and a power transmission unit configured for selectively providing pressurized hydraulic fluid for actuating at least a selected one of the wheel brakes during a braking event. The power transmission unit includes an electric motor for selectively actuating a fluid pressurization cycle. The electric motor is a dual-wound electric motor having first and second windings. A first electronic control unit is provided for selectively controlling the first windings of the electric motor of the power transmission unit. A second electronic control unit is provided for selectively controlling the second windings of the electric motor of the power transmission unit. An isolation valve and a dump valve are associated with each wheel brake.

The present disclosure relates to a brake fluid device comprising a brake fluid reservoir having a storage space, having a fastening device for fastening to a pressure generator unit of a motor vehicle brake system and/or to a mounting interface in a motor vehicle. The brake fluid interface has an outlet interface for transporting brake fluid into such a pressure generator unit, and having an inlet interface (15) for brake fluid. The brake fluid device further includes a filling adapter having a filling opening, having a receiving space, and having an outlet interface for brake fluid. A brake fluid line connects the outlet interface of the filling adapter and the inlet interface of the brake fluid reservoir and through which brake fluid is able to flow from the filling adapter into the brake fluid reservoir. An air line extends through the brake fluid line in such a manner that one of its two line ends is located inside the receiving space of the filling adapter and the other line end is located inside the storage space of the brake fluid reservoir.

A filling level sensing device for a liquid reservoir, in particular for a compensation tank of a vehicle brake system, includes at least one float, at least one sensor element connected to the at least one float, and at least two sensors for detecting the position of the at least one sensor element. The float may be designed to come into contact with the liquid in the liquid reservoir. At least one of the two sensors may sense a change in the filling level of the liquid reservoir depending on the position of the at least one sensor element relative to the at least two sensors.

A fluid container for supplying a consuming device with a working fluid, including at least one connector piece having a shut-off valve arranged therein for preventing undesired escaping of the working fluid from the fluid container. In order to increase safety against undesired emptying of the fluid container, it is provided that the valve closure body, in the closed state of the shut-off valve, is accommodated in the fluid container completely inside a contour formed by an outer edge of the connector piece, and provision is made, for support against the valve closure body, of a support, which, upon insertion of the connector piece into the receiving seat, engages at least regionally into the connecting duct and in this way displaces the valve closure body in the connecting duct.

Provided is a hydraulic unit of a brake system including a housing; an oil supply part configured to supply oil to the housing; an oil discharge part configured to discharge the oil, supplied to the housing through the oil supply part, to the outside of the housing; and a piston movably mounted on the housing, and configured to open and close the oil supply part and the oil discharge part.

A self-adaptive air bag blocking device is disclosed. The device includes an air bag, a first gas conveying pipe and a second gas conveying pipe, wherein an air chamber is formed in the air bag, a ring-shaped abutting surface is formed on the peripheral side of the air bag, so that the abutting surface abuts against a mouth of a container. The first gas conveying pipe is communicated with the air chamber and the outer part of the air bag, so that air enters the air chamber to enable the air bag to expand. The abutting surface is elastically deformed and tightly abuts against the inner wall of the container to form air-tight abutment, and the second gas conveying pipe is arranged on the air bag, so that air enters the container through the second gas conveying pipe, and thus the working liquid is discharged.

A hydraulic arrangement for a brake system is disclosed. The hydraulic arrangement comprises a pressure-providing device, a reservoir for storing a pressure medium and a bleed line. The pressure-providing device has at least one pressure chamber which can be connected to a brake circuit. The reservoir has a first partial reservoir, which can be connected via a first reservoir line to a first pressure chamber of a piston-cylinder arrangement. The first pressure chamber of the piston-cylinder arrangement is delimited by a piston, which can be adjusted by an actuating device. The bleed line connects a bleed outlet of the pressure-providing device to the first reservoir line. A diagnostic method and brake system are also disclosed.

An oil-injection device includes a base body, two clamping members, and a fastening member. The base body is formed with an oil channel. The two clamping members are movably disposed on the base body. The fastening member is movably disposed on the base body.

A hydraulic braking system has a vacuum brake booster, an ESC system with a hydraulic pump for generating braking force in a wheel-specific manner in a plurality of wheel brakes, an ESC control device for driving the hydraulic pump and a hydraulic pressure sensor for determining a hydraulic pressure in the hydraulic braking system. For electrified vehicles, an electric vacuum pump is provided for supplying the vacuum brake booster, wherein the ESC control device is designed to drive the electric vacuum pump logically and electrically.
