A drum brake module for motor vehicles, the drum brake module being driven by an electric motor and having at least one parking brake function, includes an electromechanical cable pull actuator which is fastened on the anchor plate with the aid of an adapter. The adapter is designed as a one-piece, thin walled frame having at least one fastening flange for receiving the cable pull actuator and is held in place on the anchor plate.

A bicycle operating device comprises a base member, a brake operating member, an electrical switch, and a wireless communication unit. The brake operation member is movably coupled to the base member. The brake operating member is movable relative to the base member in a first direction and movable relative to the base member in a second direction different from the first direction. The electrical switch is to provide an electric signal in response to a movement of the brake operating member in the second direction. The electrical switch is disposed at one of the base member and the brake operating member. The wireless communication unit is connected to the electrical switch to transmit a wireless signal based on the electric signal.

An emergency controller includes an emergency stop switch to be activated upon detection of an emergency, a control section to be enabled upon activation of the emergency stop switch, and an emergency stop mechanism configured to execute and release braking by a brake mechanism under control of the control section. The control section is configured to perform execution control for causing the emergency stop mechanism to execute braking by the brake mechanism and for stopping operation of the engine upon the condition that the emergency stop switch is activated while the engine is in operation. The control section is configured to perform restoration control for causing the emergency stop mechanism to release the braking by the brake mechanism upon the condition that the emergency stop switch is deactivated and the engine is started.

A driving control device for a vehicle, comprising a handle bar interconnected with a brake bar having attachment means for attachment to a brake pedal, the attachment means comprising a locking mechanism comprising an engagement head with a shaft portion and a bail portion having a flat portion, the latter locking mechanism further comprising an engagement socket having a spherical compartment fitting the ball portion and a wall portion in the opening of the socket allowing the engagement head to enter the spherical compartment when the flat portion slides over the wall portion. The driving control device is intended for handicapped drivers and for safe and easy attachment to a vehicle brake pedal.

A brake actuation system of a hydraulic brake system, for actuating at least one front axle brake circuit having at least one front wheel brake, and for actuating at least one rear axle brake circuit having at least one rear wheel brake, the brake actuation system including at least one hand brake module which, when actuated, can activate both brake circuits. In order to provide an improved brake actuation system with a plurality of actuation capabilities, which system can also be utilized in light motorcycles and scooters without the restrictions of existing brake actuation systems, while simultaneously offering a simple concept and a reduced cost and weight, the hand brake module is hydraulically coupled into a combined hand brake module, the combined hand brake module being designed to simultaneously generate brake pressure in both brake circuits.

A master cylinder for a hydraulic brake system or clutch system, in particular of a vehicle steered by handlebars, in particular of a bicycle, includes a housing containing a piston chamber. The housing accommodates a piston slidable therein and a pressure chamber. A compensating chamber communicates with the pressure chamber through at least one compensating bore. The housing has an attachment portion for attachment to a handlebar tube and the compensating chamber extends to the attachment portion and has a separating member for separating the hydraulic fluid from a compensating volume. The attachment portion has a clamping part made and arranged to attach the separating member to the attachment portion.

An integrated control apparatus for driving a vehicle is provided. The apparatus includes a lever housing mounted in an interior space of the vehicle; a joystick lever coupled to the lever housing and configured to be rotatable in a forward-backward direction and a leftward-rightward direction; and a gentle acceleration lever coupled to the joystick lever and configured to be rotatable in the forward-backward direction. When the gentle acceleration lever is operated, a gentle acceleration signal of the vehicle is generated, and when the joystick lever is operated, one of a sudden acceleration signal, a deceleration signal, a steering signal, or a braking signal of the vehicle is generated.

A lever (3) for the temporary disengagement of a parking lock (2) of a vehicle drive unit (1). The lever (3) comprises a fixing piece (31) for fitting the lever (3) onto a parking lock shaft (26), which extends inside the vehicle drive unit (1) and serves to actuate the parking lock (2). The lever (3) is a hand lever with a gripping handle (32). The gripping handle (32) is designed to enable a user to apply a manual force for manual actuation of the lever (3). When the lever (3) is fitted on the parking lock shaft (26) and moved, the parking lock shaft (26) is moved from an engagement position to a disengagement position,. In the disengagement position, by further movement of the gripping handle (32) into a locking position, the lever (3) is blocked against a reverse movement out of the disengagement position.

A bicycle disc brake rotor basically has a base rotor plate and a first thermally sprayed layer. The base rotor plate includes an outer portion having first and second base surfaces facing in opposite axial directions. The first thermally sprayed layer is laminated on the first base surface of the outer portion of the base rotor plate to form a first outer surface.
