Abstract: A brake-pressure control device for a motor-vehicle braking system, with an electric motor, the rotatory motion of which is transformed by a ball screw drive into a translatory motion of a piston in a working cylinder, in order to be able to build up a defined braking pressure in a wheel brake independently of actuation of a master brake cylinder. An aspect provides that the ball screw drive is provided with a friction slip coupling engaged over a profiled tube which is fixedly connected to a nut of the ball screw drive and to which the piston is fixed.

Abstract: The invention relates to a pedal travel simulator for the hydraulic connection to a pressure chamber of a master brake cylinder of a hydraulic brake system, in particular for motor vehicles, having a housing and a simulator piston that is diplaceably mounted in the housing, wherein the simulator piston delimits a first hydraulic simulator chamber together with the housing, which simulator chamber can accommodate pressurizing media. Wherein an elastic restoring means acts on the simulator piston, wherein the pedal travel simulator includes a second hydraulic simulator chamber for accommodating pressurizing media, the simulator chamber being delimited by an elastically deformable membrane. The invention further relates to an actuating unit for a hydraulic motor vehicle brake system of the brake-by-wire type, and to a hydraulic motor vehicle brake system.

Abstract: It is known in the art to apply a counterforce, which opposes the actuating force, onto an accelerator pedal of a vehicle in the event that the vehicle, with respect to a vehicle parameter, sufficiently deviates from the nominal value. The parameter can be the speed or the measured distance from vehicles driving ahead. The invention discloses a series of embodiments that satisfy especially easily and reliably the defined requirements for applying the counterforce to the pedal.

Abstract: A hydraulic vehicle brake equipped with a parking brake device, in particular for motor vehicles, including a brake housing in which a hydraulic service pressure chamber is delimited by a brake piston, wherein the parking brake device acts on the brake piston and, in the applied condition, can be locked by a locking device, and an energy accumulator cooperating with the brake piston is equipped with at least one integrated spring element. In order to realize a simple and low-cost parking brake function that complies with legal requirements, according to the invention, the parking brake device is operable by a pressure that is introduced into the service pressure chamber and enables charging the energy accumulator.

Abstract: A hydraulic power steering system with a steering gear and a hydraulic actuator for supporting a steering wheel actuation by the driver of a vehicle, in particular a motor vehicle, includes components for actively applying an additional steering torque, the components for actively applying an additional steering torque including at least one additional torque actuator and a steering torque detector being mounted as a module on a steering wheel shaft that connects the steering wheel to the steering gear.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a friction brake, in particular a disc brake, for a motor vehicle with a friction element, e.g. a brake disc, coupled to the rotation of a vehicle wheel, forming a friction pairing of the friction brake with at least one associated brake lining, and with at least one clamping device for pressing at least one brake lining to the friction element. At least one controllable friction clutch is provided for using the rotational energy of the friction element in order to obtain the clamping force of the friction brake, the friction clutch being coupled on its input end to the rotation of the friction element and on its output end to the clamping device. Functional advantages are achieved because a friction pairing of the friction clutch is provided independently of the friction pairing of the friction brake. This eliminates undesired mutual influences. Altogether, such a friction brake obviates the need for an additional energy source for generating a brake clamping force.
