The invention relates to a
brake system, comprising at least two wheel
brake cylinders (RZ1-4), at least one electrically driven pressure supply (DV), at least one
liquid storage tank (VB), at least one electronically controlled regulating device (ECU), at least two switching valves (SVi = 1-4), each of the at least two wheel
brake cylinders (RZ1-4) is part of a separate wheel circuit (RK1-4), and the electrically driven pressure supply (DV) is at least used for establishing a
pressure increase (Pauf) and a
pressure decrease (Pab) in the wheel brake cylinders (RZ1-4), each wheel brake cylinder (RZ1-4) being connected to a switching valve (SVi = 1-4) via a respective
hydraulic connection line. The switching valve (SVi = 1-4) is used for disconnecting and connecting the
hydraulic connection of the corresponding wheel brake cylinder (RZ1-4) to at least one further hydraulic main line, the switching valve (SVi = 1-4) is connected or can be connected to at least the pressure supply (DV) via the at least one further hydraulic main line, and the switching valve (SVi = 1-4) is a normally open two-position two-way valve, according to the invention, at least the
hydraulic connection line (HLRK1-4) and the wheel brake cylinder (RZ1-4) connected to the hydraulic connection line (HLRK1-4) are parts of a wheel circuit (RK1-4), and at least one switching valve (SVi = 1-4) or all switching valves (SVi = 1-4) do not have a
check valve or do not have a
check valve connected in parallel with the switching valve (SVi = 1-4), providing various measures alone or in combination, the switching valve (SVi = 1-4) is prevented from being closed when the pressure (Pab) is reduced through the switching valve (SVi = 1-4).
