Patent ID: 8047618

Claim:
A braking system for a motor vehicle comprising: a brake cylinder assembly having a primary piston within a main brake cylinder; a braking system fluidly coupled between the main brake cylinder and motor vehicle wheels; and a hydraulic circuit for producing a braking force, the hydraulic circuit being constructed as a servo pressure circuit for actuating the primary piston within the main brake cylinder, the hydraulic circuit comprising: a pressure source for producing a hydraulic pressure; a pressure store, the pressure store being able to be supplied with hydraulic fluid from a delivery side of the pressure source if necessary; and an actively controllable multi-way valve interposed between the pressure store and the pressure source; wherein the actively controllable multi-way valve is a two-way solenoid valve; and wherein the actively controllable multi-way valve can be fluidly coupled and decoupled from an intake side of the pressure source.
