Patent number: 10211695Abstract: A stator module for an electric motor has a stator laminated core with a number of inwardly directed stator teeth and a rotating-field winding with a plurality of phases arranged on the stator teeth. The rotating-field winding has at least one coil per phase, which coil is electrically connected to a first phase end and a second phase end. A laying ring is placed onto the stator laminated core at the end face and surrounds the stator teeth as coil body in order to guide the rotating-field winding. An annular cover is placed onto the laying ring at the end face, on which cover each of the phase ends is contacted with one of the phase ends of another phase, in such a way that the entire rotating-field winding does not protrude radially externally beyond an outer periphery of the stator laminated core.Type: GrantFiled: February 29, 2016Date of Patent: February 19, 2019Assignee: Brose Fahrzeugteile GmbH & Co.

Patent number: 10071718Abstract: A setting device, particularly a motor vehicle parking brake includes a remotely-operated drive, a hollow shaft, a spindle shaft and an elastic element. The hollow shaft is driven by the remotely-operated drive so that the hollow shaft rotates. The spindle shaft moves relative to the hollow shaft within the hollow shaft due to the rotation of the hollow shaft. The spindle shaft is connected to a brake cable such that the spindle shaft can apply and release the brake as it moves in different directions within the hollow shaft. The elastic element is loaded due to movement of the hollow shaft as the hollow shaft is driven in an attempt to release the brake while the brake cable is blocked.Type: GrantFiled: February 13, 2014Date of Patent: September 11, 2018Assignee: BROSE FAHRZEUGTEILE GMBH & CO.

Patent number: 9873411Abstract: An actuator (1), especially for a motor vehicle parking brake has a telescopic device (2) that actuates a brake cable (6), and a drive unit which is equipped with an electromechanical drive for actuating the telescopic device (2). The actuator (1) further has a displacement sensor unit for detecting the actuating travel of the telescopic device (2) as well as a force sensor unit for detecting the force applied to the brake cable (6) by the drive unit. The displacement sensor unit and the force sensor unit are disposed next to each other in or on the housing (3) of the telescopic device (2) while being separated from the brake cable (6). The assembly has a particularly simple and compact design while reducing the constructive and mounting effort required during the production of the actuator.Type: GrantFiled: July 20, 2015Date of Patent: January 23, 2018Assignee: BROSE FAHRZEUGTEILE GMBH & CO.

Patent number: 9841074Abstract: An actuator for a motor vehicle functional unit includes a force transmission unit transmitting an actuating force to an actuating member and being displaced by a measuring travel in a force transmission direction. A force measurement device detects an actual value of the actuating force and includes a spring acting in the force transmission direction, having resilient action counter to which the force transmission unit is displaced and being tensioned by the actuating force over a resilient excursion, a micro switch having smaller switching travel than the measuring travel and being actuated upon displacement of the force transmission unit if the actuating force reaches the actual value, and a stop element for actuating the switch. The switch or element are coupled to or fixed relative to the force transmission unit and the switch and/or element are resiliently supported to compensate for a difference between the switching and measuring travels.Type: GrantFiled: March 16, 2015Date of Patent: December 12, 2017Assignee: Brose Fahrzeugteile GmbH & Co.

Patent number: 9581212Abstract: A device for generating a force applied to a component includes a force generating element supported on a resilient support device having first and second, or only a second, spring elements in series in a force transmission chain being stressed during force transmission. The first spring element is less stiff than the second. The first spring element is stressed by a first supporting force over a first spring travel. A spring travel exceeding the first spring travel and a force absorption by the first spring element exceeding the first supporting force are prevented by a first mechanical engaging device. The second spring element is formed by a spring module having a second spring stressed by a second mechanical engaging device with a second supporting force permitting the second spring to only be further stressed when exceeding the second supporting force. A travel sensor detects displacement of the force generating element.Type: GrantFiled: February 9, 2015Date of Patent: February 28, 2017Assignee: Brose Fahrzeugteile GmbH & Co.
