| 20110099995 | PISTON PUMP OF A HYDRAULIC VEHICLE BRAKE SYSTEM - The invention relates to a piston pump, in particular for brake pressure regulation in a hydraulic vehicle brake system. To control the pressure medium flow, piston pumps of the known type have an outlet valve which is accommodated in a valve lid. An outflow duct of the piston pump opens out into a pressure fluid conduit of a pump housing. As viewed in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the piston pump, the pressure fluid conduit is arranged above an end, which is situated in the interior of the pump housing, of the valve lid. The pressure fluid conduit is therefore at a relatively great distance from an outer side of the pump housing. The invention is directed to a special embodiment of the outflow fluid conduit of the piston pump, which makes it possible for the distance between the pressure fluid conduit and the outer side of the pump housing to be reduced. The pump housing may thereby be optimized in terms of installation space. | 05-05-2011 |
