PARKING BRAKE DEVICE WITH IMPROVED COMMAND
An electromechanical parking brake command is aborted with no predefined plan being completed if the driver initiates an opposite command when the vehicle is stationary. The plan normally implemented for the second command is itself shortened as a result. The brake is therefore quickly returned to its original state, and a command sent inadvertently is corrected quickly.

According to an aspect of the present disclosure, an integrated brake system includes a remote control utility (RCU) module fluidly connected to a wheel brake coupled to a wheel; and an integrated dynamic brake (IDB) module fluidly connected to the RCU module and providing a transfer force to a fluid to be transferred to the wheel brake, the IDB module including a motor providing the transfer force to the fluid; and an IDB PCB electrically connected to the motor to control the motor, and the RCU module including an RCU PCB electrically connected to the motor to control the motor if the DDB PCB is in an inoperable state.
Pedal sensor
A pedal sensor is provided with a carrier that can be mounted to a motor vehicle. A housing is formed at the carrier, and a pedal arm is mounted on the carrier so as to be pivotable. A mechanism to transmit movements of the pedal arm relative to the carrier is arranged in the housing, and a sensor for measuring the movements is provided. A damping element is fixed to the carrier in a groove in such a way that any contact between the pedal arm and the carrier is dampened. The damping element is securely held on the carrier. This is achieved by the damping element being secured on both sides against slipping out of the groove.
