Abstract: In human-powered vehicles, e.g., bicycles, etc., it is customary to use drum brakes, disc brakes or shoe brakes. Each of the braking systems has different advantages in terms of braking effect, system costs, ease of maintenance, etc. A brake unit with a modified structure for a vehicle is provided. For this purpose, a brake unit 14 for a vehicle 1 is disclosed, having a housing 15, having a brake body device 23, wherein the brake body device 23 supports a stationary brake partner of a brake apparatus 12 for the vehicle 1, wherein the housing 15 and/or the brake body device 23 defines a main axis H, having an actuator for moving the brake body device relative to the housing 15 in order to generate a braking force, wherein the stationary brake partner is formed as a brake disc 13.

Abstract: A brake device for a vehicle with at least one wheel, wherein the wheel defines a rotational axis, with a brake body device for the transmission of a brake force to the wheel, with a concentric brake cylinder for the generation of the brake force. The brake cylinder has an inner housing part for radial support on a wheel axle of the wheel and an outer housing part for axial support on the brake body device. The two housing parts can be moved relative to one another, and a pressure chamber which runs around the rotational axis is formed between the two housing parts. The brake device has an insulation device for the thermal insulation of the brake body device in the direction of the brake cylinder. The insulation device is arranged at least axially between the outer housing part and the brake body device.

Abstract: A wheel module for a vehicle is disclosed including a wheel, said wheel having a wheel rim; a wheel axle, the wheel rim being rotatably mounted on said wheel axle; and a braking device for braking the wheel, said braking device comprising a brake disc and a brake pad. The brake disc and the brake pad being mutually contactable in order to transmit a braking force F1 to the wheel rim, wherein the brake disc can be axially moved to contact the brake pad and the brake pad remains axially fixed.

Abstract: 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.

Abstract: A dry double clutch for an electric axle includes a clutch unit and an actuation unit. The clutch unit has a first clutch device for connecting a drive shaft with a first output shaft, and a second clutch device, coaxial to the first clutch device, for connecting the drive shaft with a second output shaft. The actuation unit has a first actuation device for actuating the first clutch device, and a second actuation device for actuating the second clutch device. The first clutch device is closed when the first actuation device is not actuated, and the second clutch device is open when the second actuation device is not actuated. The first clutch device is arranged to be opened by a first pressure force from the first actuation device, and the second clutch device is arranged to be closed by a second pressure force from the second actuation device.

Abstract: A brake system for an electric wheel drive unit has a housing that can be attached securely to the vehicle frame. The housing has a flange region and a shaft-like wheel carrier region secured to the flange region. A first brake component is connected to the housing and includes a first support part attached directly on a radial outer side of the wheel carrier region and a first brake disc element rotationally fixed to the first support part. A second brake component is rotatably mounted relative to the housing and has a second support part and a second brake disc element rotationally fixed to the second support part. A hydraulic actuation device is provided with one or more pressure pistons arranged. A sliding element is provided for moveably coupling the pressure pistons with one of the brake disc elements.
