Electrohydraulic pressure control device for vehicle brake systems

1. An electrohydraulic pressure control device for vehicle brake systems, comprising at least one electronic control unit, at least one hydraulic unit and at least one electric motor for driving a hydraulic pump, wherein the electronic control unit is mechanically connected to the hydraulic unit and is sealed off from an external environment in at least one zone of connection to the hydraulic unit by a circumferential, flexible, sealing material, and the electronic control unit comprises a housing and at least one plug having a plurality of contact pins and/or at least one connection line for electrical contacting by at least one connection plug, wherein the plug is arranged on a side of the housing of the electronic control unit which faces away from the hydraulic unit, and the housing of the electronic control unit surrounds at least one valve coil for controlling hydraulic valves and at least one circuit board for holding electrical and/or electronic components, wherein the contact pins and the valve coil and at least one terminal of the electric motor are each connected in an electrically conductive manner to the circuit board, wherein the sealing material extends along an edge of the substantially cuboid-shaped hydraulic unit, wherein the edge is formed by a cuboid face of the hydraulic unit which faces the electronic control unit and at least one cuboid face of the hydraulic unit which does not face the electronic control unit, and the sealing material at least partially covers both cuboid faces in the zone of connection and/or sealing zone, and wherein a support element and the housing of the electronic control unit and the circuit board have at least one common mechanical connection, which is effective only in combination, which allows fixing relative to one another.

2. The electronic control unit as claimed in claim 1 , wherein in the zone of connection of the electronic control unit to the hydraulic unit, the sealing material partially or completely fills at least one volume, produced by the base part, between the support element and the hydraulic unit and/or at least one volume between the hydraulic unit and the housing of the electronic control unit and/or at least one volume between the support element and the housing of the electronic control unit.

3. The electronic control unit as claimed in claim 1 , wherein at least one peg connected to the support element and/or the housing of the electronic control unit is inserted into a through opening in the circuit board to form the mechanical connection of the support element and the housing of the electronic control unit and the circuit board, wherein at least one expansion means inserted into the peg expands the peg in such a way that there is at least partially mechanical fixing.

4. The electronic control unit as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the expansion means is connected materially to the housing of the electronic control unit.

5. The electronic control unit as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the housing of the electronic control unit comprises housing pins which are introduced into openings in the support element.

6. The electronic control unit as claimed in claim 1 , wherein at least one flexible element is provided, which rests on the valve coil and is connected to the support element.

7. The electronic control unit as claimed in claim 1 , wherein at least one spring arm is provided, which is connected to the support element and rests on the hydraulic unit.
