Patent number: 11648925Abstract: Methods and corresponding control devices for releasing an electric actuator in a reliable manner, such as an electric parking brake in particular, in a motor vehicle brake system. The aim of the invention is to provide an improved function and architecture which helps prevent the disadvantages of open-loop control systems when using a rationalized sensor system, thereby obviating closed-loop control systems. This is achieved by a release method and a corresponding electronic control unit which obtains an especially modulated change in the power requirement during the release process upon impacting the quasi-elastic release end stop of the electric actuating unit such that the change is fed back, the change being detected in order to be used as information for a power interruption or a termination of the power supply to the electric actuating unit.Type: GrantFiled: December 5, 2016Date of Patent: May 16, 2023Inventors: Christof Maron, Heniz-Anton Schneider, Christian Breiten, Ralf Scheib, Lionel Pöffel, Marco Froschauer, Alessandro Giusto, Giulio Brezza, Luca Boscolo, Thomas Merker, Luigi Tessitore, Thomas Winkler, Philipp Merkel, Niclas Görrissen, Pejman Bijanzadeh, Jürgen Bauer, Jürgen Balz
