An electro-mechanical brake and a vehicle including the same are provided. As an electro-mechanical brake according to an aspect of the present invention, an electro-mechanical brake including a pair of brake pads disposed on both sides of a disc, may include a motor that provides a rotational driving force; a rotating screw that rotates about a second rotating shaft parallel to a first rotating shaft of the motor; a power transmission unit that transmits the rotational driving force of the motor to the rotating screw; and a piston that is coupled to the rotating screw to be able to move forward and backward to press the disc with the brake pads.

An electric brake apparatus includes an electric motor including a plurality of driving circuits, an electric mechanism configured to press a braking member against a braking target member based on driving of the electric motor, and a control device configured to control the driving of the electric motor. The control device detects contact between the braking member and the braking target member based on a change in a current of the electric motor when power is supplied to a part of the driving circuits among the plurality of driving circuits. More specifically, the change amount of the current between before and after the braking member and the braking target member contact each other is larger when power is supplied to a part of the driving circuit than when power is supplied to all of the plurality of driving circuits.

Provided in a device for activating a wheel brake of a vehicle, having a tensioning installation which has a spindle drive, are two electric motors, the first electric motor by way of a first gear mechanism acting bi-directionally on the spindle drive. In order for the position of the tensioning installation, once attained, to be fixed in a parking brake, a second electric motor by way of a second gear mechanism, which has a self-locking worm gear mechanism and by way of at least one releasable coupling that acts uni-directionally in the activating direction, is coupled to the spindle drive. The coupling is composed of a cam on an output shaft of the first gear mechanism, and a pin on an output element of the worm gear mechanism. Since the cam cannot be reversed beyond the pin, a latching position of the tensioning installation is defined in this way.

A brake apparatus for a vehicle may include: a drive unit configured to generate driving power; a transmission gear configured to be rotated by the driving power transmitted from the drive unit; a piston configured to move forward or rearward in conjunction with the rotation of the transmission gear and press or release a pad in a direction in which the piston moves forward or rearward; a parking gear configured to engage with the transmission gear and rotate in conjunction with the rotation of the transmission gear; and a restriction unit installed to be movable toward the parking gear and configured to restrict the rotation of the parking gear by being inserted into the parking gear during parking braking.

It comprises a plate-like frame part which has a receiving space for a planetary gear stage and a first fastening interface for an electric motor. A centre axis of the receiving space and a centre axis of the first fastening interface run generally parallel. In addition, a drive assembly for an actuator assembly for a vehicle brake is proposed which has such a carrier assembly. An actuator assembly with a drive assembly of this type is moreover presented.
