  • Publication number: 20250263057
    Abstract: A method for detecting a malfunction of an electromechanical braking device of a braking system for a motor vehicle. The braking device has at least one controllable electric motor and at least one actuator element that can be displaced by the electric motor, wherein in the idle state of the braking device the actuator element has a clearance in the actuation direction. For a test procedure, the electric motor is controlled such that the actuator element is displaced only within the clearance, and the presence of a malfunction is ascertained according to at least one operating parameter of the electric motor detected in the process.

  • Publication number: 20250122914
    Abstract: An electromechanical drum brake for a motor vehicle. The electromechanical drum brake includes a drum, in which brake shoes are arranged, and an adjusting device, which is arranged between the brake shoes and driven by a drive unit and via which the brake shoes can be spread for braking. An end of each brake shoe that faces the adjusting device is supported on a support element cooperating with the adjusting device, movably in relation to the support element, wherein a spreading force of the adjusting device is transferable to the brake shoes via the support element.
