A drum brake device for a vehicle includes a first brake shoe and a second brake shoe movably coupled to a back plate, and spaced apart from each other; a wheel cylinder positioned between one end of the first brake shoe and one end of the second brake shoe, and configured to expand the distance between the one end of the first brake shoe and the one end of the second brake shoe; and an actuator positioned between another end of the first brake shoe and another end of the second brake shoe, and configured to provide a driving force to expand the distance between the one end of the first brake shoe and the one end of the second brake shoes and to expand the distance between the another end of the first brake shoe and the another end of the second brake shoe.

An electric axle drive unit for a motor vehicle, having an electric motor with a stator that is fixedly received in a housing, and a rotor that is rotatably mounted relative to the stator and rotationally coupled or coupleable to a wheel hub. A brake device is operatively connected to the wheel hub. The brake device has a first brake component fixedly supported on the housing, a second brake component rotationally fixed to the wheel hub that is frictionally connectable to the first brake component, and an actuation unit that applies a braking force that interconnects the brake components. One of the brake components has a brake disc element rotationally fixed to a support part and is displaceably received in the axial direction of a rotational axis of the wheel hub relative to the support part.

The present disclosure discloses a method for collaboratively controlling a multi-channel braking system of a mine hoist, including obtaining the abrasion loss of the brake shoe by detecting position information of the brake shoe of each of disc brakes in real time, dividing abrasion loss levels by determining different abrasion degrees of the brake shoe, formulating three braking force distributing modes: an average distribution, a proportional distribution, and an index distribution according to the abrasion loss levels, thereby dynamically adjusting a set braking pressure of each of the disc brakes, tracking and controlling the set braking pressure through the disc brakes by adopting a pressure closed-loop control method by utilizing a pressure signal feedback from an oil pressure sensor, implementing a collaborative braking control of the multi-channel braking system of the mine hoist based on the abrasion loss of the brake shoe.

The releases of an electromechanical parking brake are controlled by measuring the change in the intensity (I) of the electrical current provided to the control motor, or a function derived from this intensity, and by extending the release of the brake only for a determined duration (t) after stabilization of this intensity, in order not to unnecessarily increase the idle travel of the brake actuator nor to extend the duration of the control. The determined duration (t) also depends on the temperature and on the hydraulic pressure in the brake.
