DISK BRAKE

A disk brake allowing a connector terminal (255) and a joining terminal (256) to be easily positioned in a width direction thereof and a direction toward an opening portion of a housing, because the joining terminal fixed to one end of a harness includes individual protruding portions (265) and a pair of biasing portions (264). Further, due to each of the biasing portions, the connector terminal and the joining terminal can be brought into close contact with each other. Further, due to the protruding portions of the joining terminal, an end (258A) of the connector terminal and an end (268A) of a contact surface portion (263) can be brought into alignment with each other, which facilitates formation of such a welded portion (266) that extends over the respective ends, and thus achieves a secure connection between the connector terminal and the joining terminal

Hybrid electric vehicle and method for controlling a powertrain therein

A method for controlling a hybrid electric powertrain includes, in response to a request to increase a powertrain braking force on at least one of a plurality of traction wheels, (i) commanding at least one clutch to increase a gear ratio of a transmission, and (ii) during clutch stroke, commanding an electric machine to act as a generator such that the electric machine applies a braking force to at least one of the traction wheels.

Method for braking a vehicle

A method for braking a vehicle driving forward, in which the vehicle has a propulsion system including a combustion engine with an output shaft (2a), a gearbox (3) with an input shaft (3a), an electric machine (9) comprising a stator and a rotor, and a planetary gear comprising three components in the form of a sun gear (10), a ring gear (11) and a planet wheel carrier (12). The vehicle is driven with one of the components connected to an output shaft of the combustion engine rotating with a lower rotational speed than one of the components connected to the electric machine. When the vehicle is braked, the electric machine is controlled to apply a brake torque to the input shaft of the gearbox, making the rotational speed of the combustion engine increase.
