A hydraulic caliper disc brake includes an opposing pair of pistons adapted to act on an opposing pair of washers adapted to act on an opposing pair of stator assemblies, each of the pistons comprising a spherical piston face, each of the washers comprising a spherical washer face abutting a respective one of the spherical piston faces, and a straight washer face opposite the spherical washer face and abutting a respective one of the stator assemblies.

A conducting element for conducting a pressurized fluid and for conducting a cooling fluid, as well as a hybrid module and a drive assembly having a hybrid module are provided. The conducting element for conducting a pressurized fluid for hydraulically actuating a clutch unit and for conducting cooling fluid for cooling a clutch unit has a cylindrical section and a securing section. At least one pressurized fluid channel is formed in the securing section for transporting pressurized fluid. The conducting element also has at least one cooling fluid channel which has at least one axial direction component in the cylindrical section, wherein the flow line element is fluidically connected to the cooling fluid channel for supplying a clutch unit and/or electric machine with cooling fluid. With this embodiment of the conducting element, a possibility for fluid conducting is created which combines the transport of cooling fluid and pressurized fluid in a fluidically separated manner and with limited axial installation space.

A disk brake includes a cylinder including a bottomed bore portion in which a piston is received movably in an axial direction. The cylinder includes an annular small-diameter stepped portion formed on an opening edge side of the bore portion. The disk brake includes the piston configured to press a friction pad against a disk, and a piston boot disposed between a distal end side of the piston and the small-diameter stepped portion. The piston boot includes a large-diameter fitted portion configured to be fitted to the small-diameter stepped portion. An annular protrusion portion is provided on an inner peripheral side of the large-diameter fitted portion. The annular protrusion portion is shaped such that rigidity thereof against a force directed from the opening edge side toward a bottom portion side of the bore portion is lower than rigidity thereof against a force directed from the bottom portion side.

A brake assembly for an electric motor includes: a magnetic body, a winding, a bolt, a housing part with a brake surface, an armature disk, a brake pad plate, a shaft, a spring part, and a first bushing. The housing part is connected to the magnetic body by the bolt, with a positive fit in at least the circumferential direction. The first bushing is accommodated in a second bushing. The spring part supported on the housing part presses the first bushing and/or the second bushing toward the magnetic body. The radial clearance range covered by the armature disk includes the radial clearance range covered by the second bushing, and the axial region covered by the armature disk includes the axial region covered by the second bushing.

A drum brake apparatus includes: a housing; a main braking part installed on one side of the housing, and driven by hydraulic pressure so as to press a shoe during main braking; and a parking braking part installed on another side of the housing, and driven by an electromotive force of an actuator so as to press the shoe during parking braking. The housing includes: a housing part; a piston housing part formed on the housing part, having a hollow portion formed therein, and having the main braking part installed therein; and a rod housing part formed on the housing part, having a hollow portion formed therein, and having the parking braking part installed therein. The rod housing part is disposed at a location farther from a rotation center of the shoe than the piston housing part.

A brake apparatus for a vehicle may include: a screw bar positioned in a caliper body, and rotated by power received from a motor part; a nut part configured to cover an outside of the screw bar, engaged and coupled with the screw bar, and rotated and moved toward a brake disk by a rotation of the screw bar; an O-ring part disposed in a sealing space which covers the screw bar of the caliper body, and contacted with the screw bar; and a backup ring part disposed in the sealing space, abutting on the O-ring part on an opposite side of the brake disk, and having a width that increases as a portion of the backup ring part, facing the O-ring part, is away from the O-ring part.

This disc brake includes a cylinder bore into which a piston is fitted, a seal groove provided in the cylinder bore as an annular groove, and a seal member which has a rectangular cross section shape and which is fitted into the seal groove and seal a space between the piston and the cylinder bore. The seal groove includes a bottom surface portion, a side surface portion, and a chamfered portion. The chamfered portion is formed to expand an opening of the seal groove in the axial direction of the cylinder bore and has two types of curvature radii (r1 and r2).

The present disclosure provides a disk brake capable of making it easier for the piston to return than conventional ones when the brake is released from a state where the brake is applied. In the disk brake, the seal groove 5 includes a front wall 51, a rear wall 52 farther from the brake rotor than the front wall 51 in the axial direction D1, and a bottom wall 53 extending along the axial direction D1 between the rear wall 52 and the front wall 51. The bottom wall 53 includes a front bottom wall 53a adjacent to the front wall 51 and a rear bottom wall 53b adjacent to the rear wall 52. The rear bottom wall 53b has a depth d2 from the inner circumferential surface 42a of the cylinder 42, the depth d2 being larger than a dimension d3 of the uncompressed piston seal 6 in the direction of the depth d2 and being larger than a depth d1 from the inner circumferential surface 42a of the cylinder 42 of the front bottom wall 53a.

A master cylinder is described. The master cylinder includes a chamber delimited by a piston and supplied from a brake fluid reservoir installed on the top of the master cylinder by an end fitting engaged in a nozzle on the body of the master cylinder. The piston has a nose of reduced section upstream of its skirt guided in the bore hole of the master cylinder and the nozzle is connected to the chamber by a drill hole issuing into the chamber at least partly upstream of the piston in rest position. A valve module is installed in the drill hole to manage communication between the reservoir and the chamber as a function of the position of the piston and the pressure in the chamber with respect to the pressure in the reservoir.

A helical gearing for driving an adjusting element, which may be an actuator or a piston of a piston-cylinder unit, is driven by an electric motor. The adjusting element may be moved along an axis. The drive apparatus has a rotor, or a translator rotatably mounted in a housing by a bearing and fixedly connected to the input of or formed integrally with the helical gearing. The output of the helical gearing is connected to or formed integrally with the adjusting element. An anti-twist means may prevent the adjusting element from twisting in the circumferential direction about the axis. The helical gearing and/or at least part of the adjusting element is/are formed to be transversely elastic to the axis of rotation, at least in one region.
