Magnetorheological braking device
12510915 · 2025-12-30 · ·

A magnetorheological braking device with a fixed mount and with two braking components. One of the two braking components is non-rotatably affixed to the mount and the two braking components are continuously rotatable relative to one another. A first braking component extends in the axial direction. The second braking component has a hollow shell part that extends around the first braking component. A peripheral gap is filled with a magnetorheological medium. The first braking component has an electric coil and a core made from a magnetically conductive material. Magnetic field concentrators on the core and/or magnetic field concentrators on the shell part protrude into the gap, which results in a peripheral gap with a variable gap height. A magnetic field of the electric coil runs through the core and the magnetic field concentrators and through the gap into a wall of the shell part.

A magnetorheological braking device has two braking components that are continuously rotatable relative to one another. A first braking component extends in the axial direction and the second braking component includes a hollow casing extending around the first braking component. A peripheral gap is filled with a magnetorheological medium. The first braking component has an electric coil and a magnetically conductive core which extends in the axial direction. A star contour with magnetic field concentrators on the core and/or on the shell part project into the gap, which results in a peripheral gap region with a variable gap height. The electric coil is wound around the core such that a magnetic field runs through the core and the magnetic field concentrators and through the gap into a wall of the casing. A star contour is formed by a stack of star plates.

The feather key groove is only partially filled by the feather key, and a sealing part is received in the feather key groove.

ELECTROMECHANICAL BRAKE COMPRISING PRIMARY-SHAPED OR RESHAPED MOTOR HOUSING
20260063180 · 2026-03-05 ·

An electromechanical brake for a motor vehicle. The electromechanical brake includes an electric motor, which rotationally drives a mechanical adjustment unit arranged in a brake caliper housing, so that, for applying a braking force, a brake actuator is displaceable in an axial direction of the brake caliper housing. A motor housing arranged radially on the brake caliper housing accommodates the electric motor, and a control device housing of a control device controlling the electric motor is arranged on the motor housing. The motor housing is formed from the brake caliper housing and the control device housing, and the brake caliper housing is manufactured by a primary-shaping or reshaping step. A motor housing edge formed by the brake caliper housing, between the brake caliper housing and the control device housing, is formed in such a way that a radial height of the motor housing edge increases in the axial direction.
