The present invention provides an electro mechanical brake (1) comprising an electrical actuator (2) which can simplify the structure of the electro mechanical brake (1) by integrating a control module (120) into a motor housing (11). The electrical actuator (2) may comprise a motor housing (11), a motor (110) provided inside the motor housing (11), and a control module (120) for controlling the motor (110), wherein the control module (120) is inside the motor housing (11).

The disclosure relates to a method for producing various variants of a series of an electrically operable actuation system for actuating components which can be connected into and/or disconnected from a drive train of a motor vehicle. The actuation system comprises a drive unit, a transmission unit, and a control unit. The actuation system is assembled from a modular kit including the following components: a first group of first drive units, at least a second group of second drive units, a first group of first transmission units, at least a second group of second transmission units, a first group of first control units, and a second group of second control units. The groups of the drive units, the groups of the transmission units and/or the groups of the control units can be mechanically and electrically coupled to each other.

A parking brake mechanism achieves a parking brake function using a friction material operation mechanism driven by a main brake motor. The parking brake mechanism includes a parking brake motor provided coaxially with one of rotational shafts transmitting a torque from the main brake motor to the friction material operation mechanism. A linear motion mechanism moves a rotor of the motor and an engaging mechanism. The engaging mechanism includes a rotor-side engaging portion and a housing-side engaging portion engaging with each other when the rotor is moved linearly to a predetermined position by the linear motion mechanism. Engagement of the engaging mechanism achieves a pressing force holding function of holding an angle of the rotational shaft against a reaction force of the pressing force of a friction material.

The electric brake actuator with a parking function is provided with: detection unit which is provided in a vehicle in which the electric brake actuator is provided and is capable of detecting movement of the vehicle from a stop state; and determination unit configured to determine whether or not a locking mechanism has shifted to a parking locking state, by using a detection signal outputted from the detection unit, when the locking mechanism is driven by an actuator so as to switch from an unlocking state to the parking locking state.

An electromechanical wheel brake for a motor vehicle, has an electromotive drive assembly designed to impinge a drive shaft with a torque. A transmission assembly transmits a torque acting on the drive shaft to an output shaft. A clamping device converts a torque acting on the output shaft into a clamping force acting along a clamping direction. A clamping force sensor system determines the clamping force generated by the clamping device. A control unit controls the drive assembly on the basis of a brake request and an applied clamping force. The drive assembly, the transmission assembly and the clamping device are each functional modules which can be checked for their respective function and, in the installed state, enter into operative connection via correspondingly designed interfaces. In the installed state of the wheel brake the interfaces establish a signal connection between the control unit and the clamping force sensor system.
