Abstract
A brake system equipped with an anti-lock and traction control system including first shutoff valve and a first inlet valve of a valve assembly for brake pressure modulation are disposed in a first brake line connected with a master brake cylinder and a wheel brake. Toward the wheel brake, a third return line having a first outlet valve of the first valve assembly begins at the first brake line and leads to a first high-pressure pump, which pumps fluid into the first brake line. On the intake side, the pump communicates with the master brake cylinder, through a suction line having a charging valve. For brake pressure modulation in the traction control mode, phases for pressure buildup, pressure holding and pressure reduction can be controlled with the high-pressure pump, the first shutoff valve, the charging valve and the first inlet valve, while the first outlet valve assumes its shutoff position. A first storage chamber connected to the third return line therefore remains free of pressure fluid. The hydraulic multi-circuit brake system can be used in particular in motor vehicles.
