  • Method for estimating a braking force applicable between pad and brake disc by an electric parking-braking system of a vehicle and electric parking-braking system of a vehicle implementing such method
    Patent number: 11623626
    Abstract: A method for estimating a braking force applicable between pad and brake disc by an electric parking-braking system of a vehicle is described. The method may include detecting, by one or more sensors of electric quantities of an electric motor, an electric current delivered to the electric motor and an instantaneous value of an electric voltage for electrically supplying the electric motor, during a parking-braking operation. The parking-braking operation may have a first non-contact stage between a first pair of pads of a first brake caliper and a first brake disc. The parking-braking operation may also have a second contact stage between the first pair of pads of the first brake caliper and the first brake disc.

  • Device for determining the angular speed of a bicycle wheel and the pedaling cadence applied to the pedals of said bicycle
    Patent number: 10989730
    Abstract: A device for determining a kinematic magnitude of a bicycle and a rate of the pedal-thrust exerted by a user on the pedals of the bicycle includes a sensor of the bicycle, adapted to be associated to the bicycle, suitable for detecting the bicycle kinematic magnitude (?i) and for generating a signal representative of the bicycle kinematic magnitude; a filter connected to the sensor of the bicycle kinematic magnitude, configured for receiving at the input the signal representative of the bicycle kinematic magnitude (?i) and for supplying, at the output, an optimized signal (?opt) of the bicycle kinematic magnitude; and a module for the frequency-analysis of the optimized signal (?opt) of the bicycle kinematic magnitude, connected to the filter.
