Abstract

See full text

A brake unit for a hydraulic, single- or multi-circuit brake system of a land vehicle with electric drive for carrying out regenerative braking by means of at least one electrical machine in or at the drive train of the vehicle and braking by means of at least one friction brake, wherein a brake pedal and at least one sensor for detecting a braking request of the driver is provided, a master cylinder for feeding pressurized hydraulic fluid into at least one brake circuit in accordance with the braking request, wherein a dividing cylinder is provided, which has a first hydraulic chamber and a second hydraulic chamber divided from the first by a dividing piston, wherein the first hydraulic chamber has a first port, which is connected to the master cylinder, and a second port, which is connected by a simulation valve to a line leading to the wheel brakes, and the second hydraulic chamber is connected by a shut-off valve to the low-pressure storage chamber, and an orifice is disposed in a connection line between the simulation valve and the low-pressure storage chamber.
