The master controller (30) includes a driver control unit (301) that can control drivers (61 and 63), and a braking force calculation unit that calculates braking force of the electric brakes (16a to 16d). The first sub-controller (40) includes a driver control unit that controls a driver (60), and a braking force calculation unit that calculates braking force of the electric brakes (16a to 16d). The master controller (30) and the first sub-controller (40) include a determination unit that compares braking force calculation results of other controllers to determine braking force.

    Abstract: The electric brake device includes an electric motor, a brake rotor, a friction pad, a conversion mechanism, a braking force command section, a braking force estimation section, a controller, and a power supply device. The controller includes: a power determination section to determine whether an amount of remaining power that can be supplied from a power supply device to the electric motor has become equal to or less than a determined value; and a residual pressure cancellation section to cancel a residual pressure of a braking force by driving the electric motor in a direction opposite to a brake pressing direction such that an estimated value of the braking force obtained by the braking force estimation section becomes equal to or less than a set value, when the power determination section determines that the amount of remaining power has become equal to or less than the determined value.

    Abstract: The electric linear motion actuator includes an electric motor, a drive shaft configured to be rotated by the electric motor, a rotation-to-linear motion converting mechanism configured to convert the rotational motion of the drive shaft to the axial linear motion of an axially movably supported outer ring member, and an electric locking mechanism incorporated in a reduction gear mechanism in which the rotation of a rotor shaft of the electric motor is reduced in speed and transmitted to the drive shaft. When the electric locking mechanism is energized, the power transmission path shifts to the locked state in which power cannot be transmitted, and when the electric locking mechanism is de-energized thereafter, the power transmission path is kept in the locked state. The electric locking mechanism is built in a motor case of the electric motor so that the electric motor and the electric locking mechanism are unitized.

    Abstract: An electric brake device includes an electric motor; a braking force application mechanism configured to apply a braking force on a vehicle wheel; a lock mechanism configured to assume one of a locked condition; a temperature sensor configured to measure an ambient temperature of a vehicle; and a freezing preventive power supply unit configured to initiate supply of an electric power to the electric motor or a drive source of the lock mechanism. The freezing preventive power supply unit interrupts the supply of the electric power to the electric motor or the drive source of the lock mechanism when the temperature detected by the temperature sensor exceeds a second preset temperature T2 that is higher than a first preset temperature T1.

    Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to improve seal performance in an electric linear motion actuator configured to linearly drive a linear motion member due to the rotation of a rotary shaft. The linear motion member is constituted by a cylindrical member slidably fitted in a housing, and a pressing member coupled to the distal end portion of the cylindrical member so as to close the opening of the distal end of the cylindrical member. The portion of the pressing member coupled to the cylindrical member is located inside of a boot sealing the space between the distal end portion of the housing and the distal end portion of the linear motion member.

    Abstract: A load sensor used in an electromechanical brake system is provided. The load sensor includes a flange member capable of deflecting when receiving, at a load receiving portion, a load from the axially front side; a support member capable of supporting the flange member from the axially rear side, at a support portion displaced from the load receiving portion in a radial direction orthogonal to the axial direction; a displacement detecting mechanism configured to detect the amount of relative movement between the flange and support members; and a variable detection sensitivity mechanism enabling the relative movement amount with respect to the change of the load applied to the flange member to be larger in a low load range in which the load is equal to or lower than a predetermined load value than in a high load range in which the load is higher than the predetermined load value.

    Abstract: In an electric linear motion actuator, while an axially forward load is not being applied to an object by an outer ring member, a preload is applied to a frictionally coupling surface by an elastic member, and, when the axially forward load is applied to the object by the outer ring member, an axial load applied to the frictionally coupling surface decreases by an amount equal to the axially rearward reaction force which the outer ring member receives from the object. The electric linear motion actuator includes a load sensor for supporting, through planetary rollers and a carrier, the axially rearward reaction force. The load sensor is arranged such that any change in magnitude of an axially forward load applied through a snap ring will not affect the value of the axially rearward reaction force detected by the load sensor.
