Disclosed herein a caliper brake includes a carrier in which a pair of pad plates are installed to move forward and backward toward a disk; a caliper housing slidably installed on the carrier and provided with a cylinder; a piston installed in the cylinder and configured to move forward and backward toward the pair of pad plates by a braking hydraulic pressure; a seal member in close contact with an outer surface of the piston and an inner surface of the cylinder, the seal member having a ring-shaped; and a seal groove formed to be recessed in the inner surface of the cylinder to accommodate the seal member, the seal groove including a front braking surface facing a front surface of the seal member; wherein the front braking surface includes a protrusion protruding toward the seal member.

A control device of a bicycle hydraulic brake, comprising a cylinder, a tank, a piston slidably mounted in the cylinder to move between at least one first rest position in which the cylinder and the tank are in fluid communication and at least one second position in which the piston interrupts the fluid communication between the cylinder and the tank, a stop device that acts directly or indirectly on the piston. The cylinder and the tank are filled with hydraulic fluid and the stop device can take up a storage and transportation configuration in which it arranges the piston in said at least one second position.

An actuation device for a hydraulic actuation system, e.g., a motor vehicle brake or an electrified clutch actuator, may include a connection for an actuation device; a pressure supply device, driven by an electromotor drive, in the form of a piston or double-stroke piston pump; a piston cylinder unit that may be actuated by means of the actuation device; and an electronic control unit. An axis of the piston cylinder unit and an axis of the pressure supply device may be arranged in parallel.

A clamp slide for use in a linear guide includes a slide body, two piston units disposed in the slide body, two elastic members stopped against the piston units, and two fluid pressure cylinders pushing the piston units to move toward a direction against restoring forces exerted by the elastic members. Further, a moveable member is disposed in each of the piston units and pushed by an inclined plane of a lateral cover to push a braking member, such that a rail is clamped by the left and right braking members. The lateral cover can be assembled in different ways according to actual needs for enabling the inclined plane to perform opposite tilt direction. As such, the clamp slide of the present invention has the effects of simplifying structure and reducing cost.

A land vehicle includes a frame structure, a plurality of wheels, and an impact management system. The frame structure includes an operator cage that at least partially defines an operator cabin and a rear compartment positioned rearward of the operator cage in a longitudinal direction. The frame structure includes a pair of rails that each extends in the longitudinal direction from a first end arranged adjacent a pair of front wheels to a second end arranged adjacent a pair of rear wheels. The plurality of wheels are supported by the frame structure. The plurality of wheels includes the pair of front wheels and the pair of rear wheels. The pair of front wheels are positioned forward of the pair of rear wheels in the longitudinal direction.

Disclosed is a sensing device for an electromechanical brake, including: a power part configured to generate an operation force for braking when power is applied thereto; a housing positioned on the power part; a pressurized part positioned on the housing and pressurized by a reaction force caused by driving of the power part; and a sensing part connected to the housing and configured to sense a pressing force by the pressurized part.

A hydraulic brake wear detection apparatus and a method for detecting a degree of pad wear of a brake pad of a hydraulic brake includes a caliper piston located at least partially within a caliper cavity and attached to the brake pad. The caliper piston includes a piston cavity extending from a caliper piston rim into a caliper piston body at a location longitudinally opposite, and spaced from, the brake pad. An internal piston is located at least partially within the piston cavity and is entirely enclosed in an internal space defined cooperatively by the piston cavity and the caliper cavity for reciprocal longitudinal motion with respect to the internal space. The internal piston is reciprocated by a predetermined volume of pressurized hydraulic fluid responsive to wear of the brake pad.

The invention relates to a brake piston 1 for a brake caliper 9 of a disk brake, which is produced using working processes from a metallic material, in particular from a flat metal sheet, and is formed in one piece as a unilaterally open pot with a piston longitudinal axis A, with a piston wall 2 and with a piston head 3. There is a need for robust and light as well as alternatively constructed, efficiently producible and well guided brake pistons. The object is achieved firstly in principle on the basis of a cup-shapedly worked brake piston blank 19, in that at least one locally defined, i.e. partially cold-upset or partially ironed, cylindrical piston wall portion is present with a partially deformed piston wall 2 which is configured in adaptively modified manner by plastic material deformation by means of material redistribution (flow) including strain-hardening of its piston wall thickness of sl−x.

A brake device for a vehicle with at least one wheel, wherein the wheel defines a rotational axis, with a brake body device for the transmission of a brake force to the wheel, with a concentric brake cylinder for the generation of the brake force. The brake cylinder has an inner housing part for radial support on a wheel axle of the wheel and an outer housing part for axial support on the brake body device. The two housing parts can be moved relative to one another, and a pressure chamber which runs around the rotational axis is formed between the two housing parts. The brake device has an insulation device for the thermal insulation of the brake body device in the direction of the brake cylinder. The insulation device is arranged at least axially between the outer housing part and the brake body device.
