A hydraulic unit, in particular for a controllable-slip vehicle brake system, includes a housing block, a pump, a first fluid duct, and a second fluid duct. The housing block defines a pump receptacle that receives the pump, which has a suction side and a pressure side. The first duct crosses the pump receptacle in a region of the pressure side of the pump. The second duct leads into the pump receptacle in the region of the pressure side. The first and second ducts are sealed off from each over via a separation point. The hydraulic unit is configured to enable contact with a damping device configured to damp pulsations and reduce operating noise of the hydraulic unit without negatively impacting functional properties of the hydraulic unit, in particular on pressure build-up dynamics of the vehicle brake system, or without jeopardizing a compact construction of the hydraulic unit.

A slip-controllable vehicle brake system includes a drivable pressure generator configured to supply at least one wheel brake of a brake circuit with pressure medium. The pressure generator has a pump inlet valve and a pump outlet valve to control the throughput of the pressure medium. Novel system functions, such as pedestrian protection, require that the pressure generator has a drive with increased power to provide high pressure medium volumes to the wheel brakes at a faster rate. In the case of ABS braking, a high braking pressure generated by the drive works against the starting of the pressure generator and increases the starting current. To ease the starting of the drive and to limit the required starting current, a mechanism is provided downstream of the pump outlet valve which prevents an exerting of the pressure generator on the pressure side with the pressure of the main brake cylinder.
