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 wheel hub drive for a vehicle, having: a drive housing; a hub output mounted rotatably relative to the drive housing; a wheel brake for the hub output that has a stationary and a rotating braking partner, the stationary braking partner being connected to the drive housing for conjoint rotation therewith, and the rotating braking partner being connected to the hub output. The two braking partners are frictionally connected in a braking state, A parking brake for fixing the hub output relative to the drive housing. The stationary and rotating brake partners being movable relative to one another when the parking brake is actuated and being frictionally connected to one another in a parked state. The has a ramp mechanism for converting a rotary movement into a linear movement in order to transfer a parking force to the stationary and/or rotating brake partner.

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.
