In a method for carrying out an automatic braking operation for motor vehicle with an anti-lock system, the pedal position and the brake pressure for the wheels not subjected to ABS control are correlated during the automatic braking operation such that the brake pressure is no greater than would correspond to the position of the brake-actuating device in the case of a normal braking operation. Rapid braking of these wheels is achieved while the pedal position continues to represent a reliable measure of the brake pressure.

Motor vehicle braking method which prevents brake pedal hardening during

An apparatus for fastening an end of a spring steel strip subjected to high tension. The end of the spring steel strip is clamped positively between two flat surfaces of two retainers in different positions, ensuring absolute security against loosening. For this purpose, the strip end is placed positively in an insert that is freely displaceable between the retainers and is clamped together with this insert between the retainers. The insert has transverse blades on its side facing away from the strip end, with which blades it engages the adjoining retainer positively, and thus in a displacement-proof manner, in the clamped state.
