BRAKE SYSTEM HAVING A CONNECTION, WHICH CAN BE SWITCHED BY MEANS OF A BRAKE PEDAL, FOR DECOUPLING A DRIVE DEVICE FROM A PISTON-CYLINDER UNIT

摘要

The invention relates to a brake system having at least one piston-cylinder unit (4) for generating a pressure in at least one working chamber, wherein the working chamber is connected via at least one hydraulic line to at least one wheel brake, and wherein the brake system furthermore has at least one drive device (1) and one actuating device (10), in particular in the form of a brake pedal, and, in normal operation, the drive device (1, 1a) acts via a first force-transmitting means (2) on the at least one first piston (3) of the piston-cylinder unit (4) for the build-up and dissipation of pressure, and in the event of a fault, the actuating device (10) acts mechanically via a second force-transmitting means (5, 16) on the piston (3), wherein the adjustment of the second force-transmitting means (5, 16) by means of the actuating device (10) separates the connection between the first force-transmitting means (2) and the piston (3).
