A method for controlling a force representative of a parking braking of a vehicle, having the steps of: determining, by a data processing unit, a target value of a force representative of a parking braking of the vehicle to be applied, by a first brake caliper,

Method for controlling a force representative of a parking braking of a vehicle and system thereof

A method for estimating a braking force applicable between pad and brake disc by an electric parking-braking system of a vehicle is described. The method may include detecting, by one or more sensors of electric quantities of an electric motor, an electric current delivered to the electric motor and an instantaneous value of an electric voltage for electrically supplying the electric motor, during a parking-braking operation. The parking-braking operation may have a first non-contact stage between a first pair of pads of a first brake caliper and a first brake disc. The parking-braking operation may also have a second contact stage between the first pair of pads of the first brake caliper and the first brake disc.

A method for controlling the regenerative braking torque of a vehicle having a data processing unit for detecting a first information representing a deceleration request of the vehicle, detecting a second information representing a speed of the vehicle, and a first moving member of the vehicle and a second moving member of the vehicle. The method includes determining temperatures of different braking components on different axles, as well as the state of a battery module and a traction and regenerative braking module. The method also includes determining a regenerative braking power dynamic distribution ratio between the first and second axles. A regenerative braking torque is provided to one of the modules.

Method and system for controlling the regenerative braking torque of a vehicle

A method for actuating a parking brake system of a vehicle with at least three brake calipers associated with one or more axles of the vehicle is described. The method may include the following steps: providing at least one detection device for detecting the vehicle status, acquiring a value of the vehicle status with the detection device, comparing the detected value with a reference value of the vehicle status, and actuating two brake calipers of the at least three brake calipers if the detected value is lower than the reference value or actuating all the at least three brake calipers if the detected value is equal to or greater than the reference value.

Method for actuating a parking brake system and parking brake system

A locking device of an electromechanically-operated brake caliper for a disc brake, comprising a ratchet comprising a rotating element having at least one first cam and one first follower pushed elastically against said rotating element, configured to act in conjunction with said at least one first cam to allow the rotation of the rotating element in a first direction of rotation, and to prevent the rotation of the rotating element in a second direction of rotation, opposite to said first direction of rotation; a selector element sliding between a first selector element position and a second selector element position, said selector element being adapted to operate said first follower so that, in said first selector element position, said selector element keeps said first follower in a disengaged position away from the rotating element in which the application of a parking braking action is prevented, and so that, in said second selector element position, the selector element keeps said first follower in an engaged position in contact with said rotating element in which a parking braking action can be applied; said selector element having a second cam and said first follower having a first follower opening forming a second follower, said second cam being configured to act in conjunction with said second follower to operate said first follower between said engaged position and said disengaged position.
