Publication number: 20250116307Abstract: Methods and systems are for monitoring wear state of a disc brake for braking a rotor after a period of use, the disc brake having a caliper configured to clamp opposing inner and outer brake pads onto inner and outer rotor halves. The methods may include determining a new combined thickness of the rotor, the inner brake pad, and the outer brake pad after said period of use, determining an amount of movement of the caliper that occurred relative to a carrier for the inner and outer brake pads, and determining via a controller a wear amount of the inner brake pad and the inner rotor half and a wear amount of the outer brake pad and the outer rotor half based upon said new combined thickness of the rotor, the inner brake pad, and the outer brake pad and said amount of movement of the caliper.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 3, 2024Publication date: April 10, 2025Applicant: Webb Wheel Products, Inc.Inventor: Jason Kramer

Patent number: 10648438Abstract: An insulating element for a fuel injection apparatus is notable in particular for the fact that a low-noise design is achieved. The fuel injection apparatus encompasses at least one fuel injection valve and one receiving bore in a cylinder head for the fuel injection valve, and the insulating element between a valve housing of the fuel injection valve and a wall of the receiving bore. The insulating element possesses an inner insulating ring that is present in encapsulated fashion between an outer ring and an inner ring. The outer ring is directed toward the fuel injection valve and the inner ring is directed toward the wall of the receiving bore, so that corresponding abutment of these components occurs with the insulating element in the installed state. The fuel injection apparatus is suitable in particular for direct injection of fuel into a combustion chamber of a mixture-compressing spark-ignited internal combustion engine.Type: GrantFiled: March 22, 2013Date of Patent: May 12, 2020Assignee: ROBERT BOSCH GMBHInventors: Martin Kochanowski, Thomas Froehner, Markus Friedrich, Martin Scheffel, Jason Kramer

Patent number: 8234045Abstract: Systems and methods for mitigating failure mode effects in a steer-by-wire system. The system includes a controller configured to alter a direction of the vehicle when the controller is in a failure mode. A steering device is coupled to a detector. The detector is configured to detect a steering input from a driver and output a signal representative of the steering input. A first actuator is coupled to a first control device. The first control device is configured to generate a first control signal representative of the steering input when the controller is in the failure mode. The first actuator alters the direction of the vehicle by removing energy from the vehicle. A second actuator is coupled to a second control device. The second control device is configured to generate a second control signal representative of the steering input when the controller is in the failure mode. The second actuator alters the direction of the vehicle by adding energy to the vehicle.Type: GrantFiled: September 24, 2008Date of Patent: July 31, 2012Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: William Spadafora, David Llewellyn, Perry Paielli, Jason Kramer

Publication number: 20050060075Abstract: A fail-safe torque transducer, and automotive power steering system, utilizing a two-stage series coupled torsion bar system. A first stage torsion bar provides tuning of the steering system, and by reducing its diameter relative to the second stage, provides a lower torsional spring rate and higher operational stress level than that of the second stage. The second stage torsion bar provides the stress/strain indicia referenced by a torque-measuring device, and is stressed at a lower level than the first stage and therefore has a higher cycle life than that of the first stage bar. Hence, if stress related failure ever occurs, it will only occur in the first stage torsion bar, thereby preventing any torque from reaching the second stage, thereby causing a zero strain signal and thus rendering the system fail-safe and not subject to instability of vehicle steering if the torsion bar breaks.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 12, 2003Publication date: March 17, 2005Inventors: David Llewellyn, William Spadafora, Jason Kramer
