20130333988 | METHOD FOR SETTING THE CLAMPING FORCE EXERTED BY A PARKING BRAKE - In a method for setting the clamping force exerted by a parking brake, which is generated at least partially by an electromechanical braking device and, if needed, in supplementary fashion by a hydraulic braking device, in the provision of the hydraulic clamping force, a boost pressure to be generated in the hydraulic braking device is increased with respect to a switch-off pressure at the switch-off time that corresponds to the hydraulic clamping force. | 12-19-2013 |
20130338895 | METHOD FOR SETTING THE CLAMPING FORCE EXERTED BY A PARKING BRAKE - In a method for setting the clamping force, which is exerted by a parking brake, a portion of which clamping force is at least partially generated by an electromechanical braking device having an electric actuator, and another portion is additionally generated by an additional braking device, as needed, the actual force curve is determined and compared to a characteristic, defined force curve to determine the magnitude of the electromechanical clamping force to be supplied by the electric actuator. If the actual force curve corresponds to the characteristic force curve, then, in addition to the electromechanical clamping force, an additional clamping force of the additional braking device is also taken into account for obtaining the setpoint clamping force. | 12-19-2013 |
20140058642 | METHOD FOR OPERATING A PARKING BRAKE IN A VEHICLE - A method for operating a parking brake having an electromechanical braking device, which includes an electric brake motor, the electromechanical braking device being re-applied in order to generate a clamping force again in the case of a fault of the release process of the electromotive braking device. | 02-27-2014 |
20140172259 | METHOD FOR OPERATING A PARKING BRAKE HAVING AN ELECTROMOTIVELY DRIVEN PARKING BRAKE MECHANISM - A method for operating a parking brake with an electromotively driven parking brake mechanism includes applying the parking brake by the electric motor, switching off the electric motor in the state in which the parking brake is applied, switching on the electric motor after a prespecified time and reapplying the parking brake mechanism in the brake application direction. During the brake reapplication operation, an electrical variable of the electric motor is determined and compared with a reference value. The brake reapplication process is continued or terminated depending on whether the electrical variable, or a variable derived therefrom, is smaller or greater than the reference value. | 06-19-2014 |
