  • Patent number: 12257988
    Abstract: A brake force generator for a brake system having an electric motor for generating a drive speed. The electric motor cooperates with an input side of a planetary gearing, the planetary gearing including a ring gear, which is accommodated in a ring gear holder. Tolerance compensating elements are arranged between the ring gear and the ring gear holder in the axial direction, via which tolerance compensating elements the ring gear is held, without play, between the ring gear holder and a ring gear supporting element arranged on a side of the ring gear which is axially remote from the ring gear holder. The brake force generator additionally includes a hydraulic module connected to an output side of the planetary gearing to generate a brake pressure. An elastically hardening material is arranged between the ring gear and the ring gear holder to absorb axial forces of the ring gear.

  • Patent number: 12191740
    Abstract: A drive device for an actuator for a brake device of a motor vehicle. The drive device has an electric machine having a rotor rotatably mounted in a housing and a stator fixed to the housing. A bearing shield is situated in the housing that has an axially extending sleeve-shaped bearing segment for the rotatable bearing of a drive shaft, which bears the rotor. The bearing shield has an axially extending sleeve-shaped retaining segment held with a frictional fit in a sleeve-shaped end segment of the housing and has a diameter that is greater than the diameter of the bearing segment. A radially extending annular disk-shaped floor segment of the bearing shield is between the retaining segment and the bearing segment. The retaining segment has a first axial partial segment connected to the floor segment, and a second partial segment connected to the first partial segment.

  • Publication number: 20240322642
    Abstract: A drive device. The drive device includes an electric machine arranged in a housing. The electric machine comprises a rotatably mounted rotor and a stator, which is fixed to the housing and comprises a motor winding, comprising at least one motor phase supply line electrically connected to the motor winding. The motor phase supply line comprises a contact portion, which protrudes from the housing and is electrically connected or connectable to a control device. An insulation element radially surrounds the contact portion at least in sections. The contact portion is integrally formed and the insulation element is slid onto the contact portion.

  • Publication number: 20240250584
    Abstract: A drive device. The drive device includes an electric machine arranged in a housing, a rotor of the electric machine being arranged on a drive shaft for conjoint rotation therewith, the drive shaft being rotatably mounted in the housing, and including a sensor unit that is configured to sense a rotary position of the rotor, the sensor unit being provided with a circuit board having at least one sensor element, and the circuit board being in the form of an annular disk and being arranged coaxially to an axis of rotation of the drive shaft. The circuit board is arranged in the housing, and the drive device includes a shielding sheet which radially surrounds at least some parts of the circuit board.

  • Publication number: 20240213856
    Abstract: An assembly. The assembly includes a first element and a second element, wherein the elements are fastened to one another in such a way that they together enclose an assembly interior, and wherein an electrically conductive cable protrudes into the assembly interior through a cable passage formed between the elements. For forming a particle seal assigned to the cable passage, at least one of the elements has at least one projection, which projects in the direction of the other element and presses the cable against the other element.

  • Publication number: 20230093152
    Abstract: An electrically controllable component assembly and an electronically slip-controllable brake system having such a component assembly. The component assembly has an electric machine including a rotor, a machine shaft connected to a rotor in a torsionally fixed manner, and a signal transducer, revolving with the rotor, of a sensor device for the electronic sensing and evaluation of the angle of rotation of the machine shaft. The signal transducer has first regions and second regions, which are situated in mutual alternation in sequence in the circumferential direction of the signal transducer and differ from one another in their respective electrical conductivity. The signal transducer includes a shaped sheet metal part, which rests in a flush manner against the rotor and is anchored in a torsionally fixed manner to the machine shaft.
