ELECTRIC DRUM BRAKE SYSTEM AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF
Provided is an electric drum brake system, including: an electric drum brake configured to be driven by an electric motor; a current sensor configured to detect a current input to the electric motor; and a controller configured to, when parking is released, determine a parking release time based on a temperature of the electric drum brake, and when a maintenance time reaches the determined parking release time, end a parking release operation by stopping the electric motor, the maintenance time being a period of time while a state where a motor current detected by the current sensor reaches a target current is maintained.
BY-WIRE BRAKE SYSTEM FOR MOTOR VEHICLES
A brake system for a motor vehicle comprises a normally closed circuit separation valve such that the system is configured to operate in 1) in a by-wire mode when the circuit separation valve is open, such that pressure only from a pressure chamber of a linear actuator is delivered to both first and second pairs of wheel brakes, and 2) in a circuit separation mode with the circuit separation valve in the normally closed position, such that pressure from a tandem master cylinder is delivered only to the first pair of wheel brakes, and such that pressure from the pressure chamber of the linear actuator is concurrently delivered only to the second pair of wheel brakes. The system can provide braking pressure even in the event of a by-wire braking module leak that causes inoperability of an ECU.

Control device and method for operating an electromechanical brake booster of a brake system configured to execute anti-lock control actions
A control device and a method for operating an electromechanical brake booster of a brake system configured to execute anti-lock control actions, including the steps: determining a setpoint variable regarding a setpoint brake pressure to be produced by the electromechanical brake booster, in view of at least a differential travel; and controlling the electromechanical brake booster in view of the determined setpoint variable; at least during an anti-lock control action carried out in the brake system, it being ascertained if the differential travel lies outside of a specified normal value range, and in some instances, the additional steps being executed: determining a correction variable for the setpoint variable in view of at least a difference between the determined setpoint variable and an actual variable regarding an actual pressure present in at least part of the volume of the brake system, and controlling the electromechanical brake booster in additional view of the determined correction variable.
Electrohydraulic brake actuator
An electrohydraulic brake actuator for a motor vehicle. The brake actuator has a piston-cylinder unit, whose piston is displaceable by an electric motor via a screw drive. Two pistons are provided, of which initially only a piston having a greater pressure-generating piston surface is displaced in order to build up pressure quickly and subsequently a second piston having a smaller pressure-generating piston surface is displaced in order to increase pressure.
Method and device for controlling a parking brake
A method for controlling a parking brake of a vehicle, including: receiving an activation signal which represents a manual operating unit of a parking brake being activated by a driver; reading a speed decrease signal which represents a value of a speed decrease of the vehicle upon receiving the activation signal; and emitting a delay signal as a function of the value of the speed decrease, wherein the delay signal is configured for delaying a complete engagement of the parking brake. Also described are a related apparatus/device, and a computer readable medium.
METHOD AND DEVICE FOR OPERATING A HYDRAULIC BRAKING SYSTEM, BRAKING SYSTEM AND VEHICLE
A method for operating a hydraulic braking system including a main brake cylinder and at least one brake circuit, which includes at least one hydraulically actuatable wheel brake, an activatable pressure generating unit configured to generate a hydraulic pressure in the brake circuit when a pressure demand occurs, and an activatable auxiliary pressure generating unit configured to alternatively generate the hydraulic pressure in the brake circuit, the auxiliary pressure generating unit being activated upon recognition of a malfunction in the pressure generating unit to generate the hydraulic pressure. The auxiliary pressure generating unit is assigned an activatable control valve in order to interrupt or establish a connection to the main brake cylinder. The braking system is monitored for the occurrence of a brake demand, and that upon detection of a brake demand, the control valve is activated to interrupt the connection to the main brake cylinder.
