  • BRAKE SYSTEM FOR A MOTOR VEHICLE
    Publication number: 20220371561
    Abstract: A brake system for a motor vehicle has electromechanical wheel brakes, a brake operating unit and a central brake control unit. The wheel brakes each have a local brake control unit. The central brake control unit is connected to the brake operating unit and the local brake control units via a first data connection. The brake operating unit is connected to the local brake control unit of at least one wheel brake via a second data connection. In a normal operating mode the central brake control unit determines at least one brake demand from first operating information, received via the first data connection and transmits control signals corresponding to the brake demand to the local brake control units. In a fallback operating mode the local brake control units actuate the respective wheel brakes basis on second operating information, received via the second data connection.

  • Permanent-magnet synchronous machine and motor vehicle system
    Patent number: 10411573
    Abstract: A permanent-magnet synchronous machine comprises a rotor and a stator for holding at least one first stator winding and a second stator winding which is electrically insulated from said first stator winding. The second stator winding has a smaller conductor cross section and a larger number of turns than the first stator winding, wherein a first operating voltage is provided for motor operation of the first stator winding and a second operating voltage is provided for motor operation of the second stator winding. The second operating voltage has a higher rated voltage than a rated voltage of the first operating voltage.
