Disclosed is a device for influencing the driving dynamics of a vehicle with an electronic brake system. The device includes a brake actuator for adjusting a brake torque at least one wheel brake of the vehicle. The brake torque can be determined in a torque distributing device according to a yaw torque requirement. A first control unit can be activated in the presence of a critical driving condition as is used to determine a first yaw torque requirement due to driving dynamics control. A management device () has a second control unit, which can be activated in the presence of a subcritical driving condition, and a second yaw torque requirement (R:D_GM) can be determined by the second control unit due to driving dynamics control, and the second yaw torque requirement (R:D_GM) can be sent to the torque distributing device (), and an activated state of the first control unit a signal (I:EBS_Status; R: D_GM; R:[S, S, . . . ]) can be sent from the electronic brake system () to the management device (), which causes deactivation of the second control unit.

Device and method for driving dynamics control in a vehicle

In a method of controlling a hydraulic vehicle brake system with active hydraulic brake force boosting, wherein the driver can introduce brake pressure into a master brake cylinder with an actuating device, wherein the pressure introduced by the driver is boosted by an active hydraulic pressure increasing unit, a braking request or a suspected braking request of the driver is determined and, when a braking request or a suspected braking request of the driver is detected, a separating valve that is arranged in a line connecting the master brake cylinder and the hydraulic pressure increasing unit is opened or remains open and the pressure increasing unit is actuated for pressure generation purposes.
