Abstract
The invention relates to an automotive braking system which is actuated by a pressure fluid, comprising at least one first brake circuit and a second brake circuit, whereby a first brake cylinder and a second brake cylinder are associated with the second brake circuit and can be connected to a second pressure liquid source for the second brake circuit via a second control valve device according to a control signal provided by a multicircuit braking transmitter. A reversing valve arrangement is arranged between the second control valve device and the first brake cylinder, whereby a valve actuating member can be pressure controlled by the control signal associated with the first brake circuit in such that the first brake cylinder can be connected to a pressure fluid source which is independent with respect to the pressure fluid source of the second brake circuit. A switching device is shifted into a blocking state when anti-slip braking occurs. Thus, the control signal associated with the first braking circuit cannot be connected to the reversing valve arrangement during the blocking state.
