Circuit provides maximum current to an electric motor for a hydraulic pump in a brake system for a brief time interval after the motor is switched on, and thereafter limits the current to a lower value which corresponds to the torque necessary for generating the pressure required in the system.

Electric motor-driven hydraulic pump

A hydraulic system having a pressure generator which is protected against destructive overload. The hydraulic system has a pulsating feeding pressure generator, such as a piston pump, which feeds pressure fluid at high pressure into a damper chamber of a housing. A throttle body having a throttle bore is disposed on the outlet side of the damper chamber. For producing the protective effect, the damper chamber is preceded by a rupture disk communicating with the outlet. The throttle body suitably has a thin-walled portion, embodied as a rupture disk, in which the throttle bore is located. The embodiment described is advantageously usable in hydraulic systems in which pressure fluids are pulsatingly fed at high pressures.

Hydraulic system for a motor vehicle brake system having a pump with

An apparatus having a self-aspirating pump, with which, in a traction control mode, pressure fluid can be aspirated through an intake line from a pressure fluid supply tank of a master brake cylinder. Located in the intake line is a control valve that assumes its preferred blocking positoin and can then be switched into its open position by a pressure pulse generated by the pump, through a control line. This open position can be switched whenever a control valve, located in the brake line of the master brake cylinder, is switched by an electronic control unit of the control apparatus out of its preferred position thereby connecting the master brake cylinder to the wheel brake cylinders into another position, thereby carrying pump pressure to the control valve. Aspiration of pressure fluid from the supply tank is thus avoided upon pump startup with undesirable feeding. This prevents the production of noise from the pumping of pressure fluids into the master brake cylinder.

Hydraulic vehicle brake system with anti-skid and traction control

The invention seeks to reduce structure-borne sound emissions of the reciprocating piston pump. The reciprocating pump is includes an outlet valve, which has a valve seat and a valve closing body that is received in a hollow space and is loaded by a closing spring. One outlet bore radially originates at the circumferential region of the valve seat and branches off from the hollow space. The opening of the outlet bore toward the hollow space extends at least approximately between the valve seat and the end toward the closing spring of the gap of least cross section, which is formed between the valve closing body and the inside circumference of the hollow space. As a result, a slowed opening motion of the valve closing element is attained, in which opening motion an opening gap opens up that has its largest flow cross section in the region of the outlet bore. The supply flow, which increases slowly as the outlet valve opens, results in a slowed force variation speed in the drive train of the reciprocating piston pump and a reduced emission of structure-borne sound. The pressure fluid pumping device may be used for instance in hydraulic motor vehicle brake systems having an anti-skid system and/or traction control system.
