Abstract: A brake booster includes an input element actuatable by a driver, an actuator for generating a support force, an output element to which an input or support force may be applied and through which an actuating force may be applied to a piston of a brake master cylinder, a force transmission unit having elastic properties, situated between the input element and the actuator, and the output element, and transmitting the input and/or support forces to the output element, and a preload unit acting on the force transmission unit to apply a force couple to the force transmission unit when the brake booster is in idle mode. A method for operating the brake booster includes generating a support force prior to a braking intent to be anticipated or immediately after detection of a braking intent, in a time span before or immediately after detection of an actuation of the input element.

Abstract: A method and a device are disclosed which, as part of an overall brake system i.e. a brake system consisting of a conventional part and a further, for example recuperative part, can cause volume displacements in a brake circuit or in a piston-cylinder unit on a brake pedal. This is used in order to compensate for a change in the pressure conditions through the controllable servobrake in the hydraulic part of the brake system owing to an additional braking action of the further part of the brake system and thereby to blend braking actions of different brake systems to form an overall braking action without the driver realizing this at the brake pedal by changing the position of the pedal. The method can be used, for example, in vehicles in which a braking deceleration is caused by operating an electric machine as a generator to produce current and which additionally have a conventional, hydraulic brake system as a further brake system or backup brake system.

Abstract: A method for actuating a hydraulic vehicle brake system, includes a master brake cylinder with a preferably electromechanical brake booster and a wheel slip control device. The master brake cylinder is actuated simultaneously with the brake booster, and hydraulic pumps of the wheel slip control device are driven by an electric motor. Pressure builds more quickly in the wheel brakes of the vehicle brake system for safety and assistance functions that require high pressure build-up dynamic. The method also increases the wheel brake pressure using the pressure that can be generated by actuating the master brake cylinder with the brake booster.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method and a device as part of a complete brake system, that is, a brake system comprising a conventional part and a further part, such as a recuperative part, by means of which volume displacements of brake fluid are possible. The method according to the disclosure and the device according to the disclosure are used particularly if the pressure conditions in the hydraulic part of the brake system are adapted by the controllable braking force amplifier to a change in the additional braking effect of the further part of the brake system. A blending of the braking effects of the different brake systems into a constant total braking effect is thus accomplished, even if the proportion of the individual brake systems in the total braking effect change.
