Claim Text:
1. A hydraulic brake system for a vehicle having multiple wheel brake cylinders corresponding to multiple wheels, comprising: a brake master cylinder in hydraulic connection with at least one wheel brake cylinder of the multiple wheel brake cylinders of at least one wheel of the multiple wheels; a plunger in hydraulic connection with the at least one wheel brake cylinder and the brake master cylinder; and a brake force booster for actuating the brake master cylinder, wherein the brake force booster has an input element, wherein, during a pressure adjustment in the at least one wheel brake cylinder by an operation of the plunger, an actuating position of the input element is maintained by an operation of the brake force booster and a non-varying force applied by a driver and capable of causing a displacement of the input element, wherein the hydraulic connection among the at least one wheel brake cylinder, the plunger and the brake master cylinder is continuously maintained during the pressure adjustment at the at least one wheel brake cylinder; wherein the pressure adjustment in the at least one wheel brake cylinder takes place by operating the plunger and the brake force booster when at least one hydraulic connection has been established among the at least one wheel brake cylinder, the plunger and the brake master cylinder, and wherein during the pressure adjustment in the at least one wheel brake cylinder, the hydraulic connection between the remaining wheel brake cylinders of the multiple wheel brake cylinders located between the at least one wheel brake cylinder, the plunger and the brake master cylinder is interrupted.
