Abstract
A motor vehicle brake system operable in a brake-by-wire and fallback modes. The system includes a brake pedal (), a master cylinder (), a reservoir (), a travel simulator (), an electrically controllable pressure source (), isolation valves () pumps () and a low-pressure accumulator (), an inlet valve (-) and an outlet valve (-) for each wheel brake (), valves () connected to the pumps (), and a control and regulation unit (). A valve arrangement () establishes for each brake circuit (I, II) a connection from the pressure chamber () of the master cylinder () to the modulator admission pressure line () and disconnects the connection when unenergized, the valve arrangement () preventing the pressure source () from being subjected to pressure from the pressure chambers ().
