Electromechanical brake booster

An electromechanical brake booster for an electrohydraulic motor vehicle braking system, with a drive assembly for driving at least one actuator designed to actuate a brake cylinder, wherein the drive assembly has at least one electric motor and a gear mechanism for coupling the electric motor to the at least one actuator, wherein the gear mechanism has a first spur gear, an intermediate spur gear and a second spur gear,

• wherein a pinion of the electric motor directly drives both the first spur gear and the intermediate gear via engagement with both the first spur gear and the intermediate spur gear, and
• wherein the intermediate spur gear drives the second spur gear via engagement with both the pinion and the second spur gear;
• wherein the first spur gear and the intermediate spur gear are arranged offset with respect to each other in the direction of an axis of rotation of the electric motor;
• wherein the pinion is provided on the output shaft of the electric motor, which pinion is designed to drive the first spur gear and the intermediate spur gear, wherein the intermediate spur gear is offset with respect to the first spur gear in the direction of the axis of rotation of the electric motor;
• and
• wherein an extension of the pinion spans at least an axial extension of the outer peripheral surfaces of the first spur gear and the intermediate spur gear in the direction of the axis of rotation of the electric motor.
