Abstract
The invention relates to a piston pump for a slip-controlled hydraulic vehicle brake system. The piston pump has a piston which is driven to execute a stroke motion, and two check valves as an inlet valve and outlet valve for controlling the fluid flow through the piston pump. The outlet valve has a valve closing spring that effects a fast closure of the outlet valve. To enable completely evacuating a positive displacement chamber of the piston pump, the invention includes connecting an evacuation valve, embodied as a springless check valve with a small diameter and with a lightweight valve closing body, hydraulically parallel to the outlet valve.
