Land vehicles and methods of operating land vehicles are disclosed. A land vehicle includes a frame structure, a plurality of wheels, and a brake system. The frame structure includes a front cage that at least partially defines an operator cabin and a rear compartment positioned rearward of the front cage in a longitudinal direction. The plurality of wheels are supported by the frame structure. Each of plurality of wheels is sized to permit direct integration of an electric motor therein.

A brake assembly comprising: (a) a caliper including: (i) one or more pistons, (b) one or more rotary to linear actuators that provides an axial force to move the one or more pistons, (c) a motor gear unit in communication with the one or more rotary to linear actuators, the motor gear unit including: (i) a motor, and (ii) an electromagnetic brake that prevents movement of the motor gear unit, the pistons, or both when the motor is turned off so that the brake apply is maintained.

Provided is an electric braking device that transmits power generated by an electric motor MTR to a pressing member PSN and causes pressing force to be generated by the pressing member PSN with respect to a friction member MSB. Hysteresis characteristics in the relation between the power supply amount to the electric motor and the pressing force of the pressing member are detected each time a predetermined point in time arrives. Upon determination of a “holding state in which the pressing force is held constant”, a minimum value for a power supply amount that makes it possible to maintain the current pressing force is obtained on the basis of the most recently detected hysteresis characteristics and the power supply amount is set to a value determined on the basis of the obtained minimum value for the power supply amount.

The invention relates to a vehicle brake, in particular a utility vehicle disc brake, having a brake carrier with at least one brake pad holder, at least one brake pad which is guided so as to be axially displaceable and supported in the brake pad holder, and a brake caliper which is axially movable relative to the brake carrier. According to the invention, it is proposed that the brake carrier is structurally reinforced on the run-out side relative to the run-in side, and at least one running direction indicator for indicating the first rotational direction is arranged on the brake carrier.

An electro-hydraulic hybrid braking system for a vehicle is disclosed. The system includes multiple wheel-end braking modules (1), a hydraulic control module (2), a first electronic control module (3), and a second electronic control module (4). Each of the wheel-end braking modules (1) includes a hydraulic piston (10), a motor (8), and a speed-reducing transmission mechanism (9) configured to convert a rotary motion from the motor (8) into a linear motion for driving the hydraulic piston (10) or brake friction plates (12) to move forwards. The hydraulic piston (10) is movably arranged, and is movable forwards through brake hydraulic pressure. The motor (8) is controlled by the first electronic control module (3) and/or the second electronic control module (4). The electro-hydraulic hybrid braking system for a vehicle is applicable to a vehicle braking system for intelligent driving.

A bearing assembly for a brake carrier for a utility vehicle, includes a retaining element and a brake support element, wherein the retaining element is fixed to an axle or a chassis component by form fit, substance bonding and/or force fit, wherein the axle extends along an axial direction, wherein the brake support element has a first mounting region, wherein the retaining element has a first retaining region, and wherein the first mounting region is configured to be brought into direct or indirect engagement with the first retaining region such that a displacement along a first transverse direction between the retaining element and brake support element is prevented by form fit.
