An electronic parking brake device including: a plate part having a brake shoe rotatably mounted thereon; a housing part mounted on the plate part and configured to guide hydraulic pressure; a motor part mounted on the housing part, and driven when power is applied thereto; a piston part mounted on the housing part, and moved by hydraulic pressure so as to operate the brake shoe; and an operation part embedded in the housing part, disposed between the piston parts, and driven by the motor part so as to push the piston parts.

A brake caliper device is adapted to be used with a brake disk, and includes a main body unit, first and second pads, a caliper actuator unit, and a positioning unit. The caliper actuator unit includes an actuating member, a bolt member that abuts against the actuating member, and a threaded sleeve that is threadedly engaged to the bolt member. When the actuating member is driven by an external force, the actuating member is capable of vibrating axially to cause an axial vibration of the bolt member, which prompts the threaded sleeve to rotate relative to the bolt member for pushing the first pad toward the brake disk, thereby automatically providing a travel stroke that compensates for pad wear.

A brake assembly comprising: (a) a caliper including: (i) one or more pistons, (b) one or more rotary to linear actuators that provides an axial force to move the one or more pistons, (c) a motor gear unit in communication with the one or more rotary to linear actuators, the motor gear unit including: (i) a motor, and (ii) an electromagnetic brake that prevents movement of the motor gear unit, the pistons, or both when the motor is turned off so that the brake apply is maintained.

A safety braking device for a machine tool for braking a processing tool driven by means of an electric motor via an output unit, more particularly an output shaft, includes at least one braking device which is provided to halt rotation of the output unit in a braking process. The braking device has at least a first braking stage and a second braking stage. The disclosure further relates to a machine tool having the safety braking device and to a method for operating a safety braking device.

An electromagnetic brake to restrict or prevent movement of a motor in a vehicle brake system, the electromagnetic brake includes: a core; a static plate; a moving plate located between the core and the static plate; a rotor located between the core and the moving plate; one or more legs that extend from the core; and one or more fasteners that connect the one or more legs to the static plate, the core includes a cylindrical portion and a flange that extends around the cylindrical portion, the one or more legs extend from the flange radially around the cylindrical portion.

A brake system that includes a fixed brake system, a sliding brake system, and a support structure. The fixed brake system has an inboard side and an outboard side and being operable to move an inboard brake pad and/or an outboard brake pad against a brake rotor to generate a first clamping force. The sliding brake system being operable to move relative to the fixed brake system and to move the inboard brake pad and/or the outboard brake pad against the brake rotor to generate a second clamping force. The support structure providing a sliding contact between the sliding brake system and the fixed brake system during movement of the sliding brake system relative to the fixed brake while generating or releasing the second clamping force. The support structure is located in a region of the outboard side of the fixed brake system.

A brake system may comprise a hydraulic brake system or a hybrid brake system. The hydraulic brake system may include an inner axle disposed in an inner axle housing. The inner axle housing may include a working fluid therein. The inner axle may comprise a plurality of paddles extending radially from the inner axle. The working fluid may be pressurized and/or create friction with the plurality of paddles. The pressurized working fluid may impede a free rotation of the plurality of paddles.

The disclosure relates to an electromechanical brake for a motor vehicle. The electromechanical brake comprises an actuating piston which is set up to be moved translationally in a direction of a piston axis in order to actuate at least one brake shoe. The electromechanical brake also comprises a brake carrier having a gas-containing piston chamber in which the actuating piston is received such that it can be moved translationally in a direction of the piston axis. Furthermore, the electromechanical brake comprises an electric motor for driving the actuating piston. In the case of the electromechanical brake, a venting device is provided, which is set up to vent the piston chamber with respect to an exterior. The disclosure also relates to a disc brake, to a brake system, and to a motor vehicle.

A brake piston system configured for use in a brake system is disclosed. The brake piston system can include: a piston body; a piston footing positioned at a first end of the piston body and configured to transfer a braking force to a brake pad; an o-ring positioned between the piston footing and the piston body. Embodiments of the brake piston system can include a plastic (e.g. phenolic) piston body and a metal (e.g. steel) footing and can reduce fluid hold-up in and weight of the piston system.

An electromagnetic brake to restrict or prevent movement of a motor in a vehicle brake system, the electromagnetic brake includes: a core; a static plate; a moving plate located between the core and the static plate; a rotor located between the core and the moving plate; one or more legs that extend from the core; and one or more fasteners that connect the one or more legs to the static plate.
