According to at least one embodiment, the present disclosure provides a brake system for a vehicle which includes a 3-way solenoid valve to reduce the number of solenoid valves mounted to the brake system.

A brake system may include an actuating device, in particular a brake pedal; a first piston-cylinder unit having two pistons subjecting the brake circuits to a pressure medium via a valve device, wherein one of the pistons can be actuated by the actuation device; a second piston-cylinder unit having an electric motor drive, a transmission at least one piston to supply at least one of the brake circuits with a pressure medium via a valve device; and a motor pump unit with a valve device to supply the brake circuits with a pressure medium. The brake system may also include a hydraulic travel simulator with a pressure or working chamber which is connected to the first piston-cylinder unit.

A brake system comprises an electronic stability control (ESC) module defining a first interconnect passage, and a pressure supply unit (PSU) module defining a second interconnect passage in fluid communication with the first interconnect passage. The ESC module includes a first pump configured to transfer brake fluid from the PSU module and to a plurality of wheel brakes, and a prime valve configured to selectively control fluid communication between the first interconnect passage and an inlet of the first pump. The PSU module includes a second pump configured to transfer the brake fluid from a fluid reservoir to the first interconnect passage, and a bypass fluid passage from the fluid reservoir to the ESC module with an inline check valve allowing fluid flow through the bypass fluid passage from the fluid reservoir and to the ESC module while blocking fluid flow in an opposite direction.

The present invention pertains to a brake system for a vehicle, in particular a wheeled vehicle, comprising a control unit configured to operate the brake system in an automatic retarding control mode and in a brake assist mode, a brake pedal valve, and at least one brake valve unit for actuating a brake actuator. The break valve unit comprises a brake valve for applying pressurized fluid to the brake actuator in response to a control pressure applied to a hydraulic actuator of the brake valve, a blocking valve for controlling application of pressurized fluid from the brake pedal valve to the hydraulic actuator of the brake valve, and a brake pressure control valve for controlling application of pressurized fluid to the hydraulic actuator of the brake valve.

A hydraulic motor vehicle braking system comprises an electronic stability control (ESC) system of dual-circuit design, a first brake circuit which acts on one or more first wheel brakes, and a second brake circuit which acts on one or more second wheel brakes. The first brake circuit comprises a first hydraulic pressure generator which is electrically controllable for control interventions, and the second brake circuit comprises a second hydraulic pressure generator which is electrically controllable, independently of the first hydraulic pressure generator, for control interventions.

A method for ascertaining a leakage in a hydraulic braking system of a motor vehicle, the braking system including at least one hydraulically actuatable wheel brake, at least one pressure generator and at least one discharge valve which is assigned to the wheel brake and actuated as a function of a driving situation of the motor vehicle to maintain driving stability, and a hydraulic volume of the braking system being monitored. It is provided that the leakage is ascertained as a function of the ascertained hydraulic volume and as a function of an actuation of the discharge valve.

Disclosed herein is an electric brake system including a brake including a cylinder and a piston which is provided in the cylinder to move forward or backward and is moved by hydraulic pressure so that a brake pad presses a brake disc, an electric stability control (ESC) actuator configured to generate and supply hydraulic pressure to the cylinder to brake a wheel of a vehicle, an electric parking brake (EPB) actuator configured to move the piston by a motor, and a controller configured to control the EPB actuator and the ESC actuator, wherein the controller estimates a flux in the cylinder and estimates pressure in the cylinder based on whether an EPB is applied through driving of the EPB actuator and the estimated flux in the cylinder.

The present invention provides a motor including: a rotating shaft; a rotor including a hole in which the rotating shaft is disposed; a stator disposed at an outside of the rotor; a housing configured to accommodate the rotor and the stator; and a sealing guide disposed to cover an opening formed in one side of the housing, wherein the sealing guide supports a terminal of the stator exposed at an outside of the housing.

A method for defining at least one characteristic curve which, in a pressure-actuated brake system of a vehicle, represents a relationship between a brake pressure and a brake demand), and for operating a pressure-actuated brake system of a vehicle, in which at least one brake cylinder can be supplied with a pressurized medium under a brake pressure, and in which the brake pressure is formed based on at least one such characteristic curve, and to a pressure-actuated brake system of a vehicle in which at least one brake cylinder can be supplied with a pressurized medium under a brake pressure.
