Abstract
An electric brake device to be mounted on a vehicle includes a rotating body, a friction member, an electric motor, a piston, an operation conversion mechanism, an actuator, and a controller. The operation conversion mechanism is configured to include a rotating member and a linear motion member. The controller is configured to selectively execute a standby control of causing the linear motion member to stand by at a standby position where a clearance between the friction member and the rotating body is not larger than a backlash between a male screw and a female screw, and a backward movement control of moving the linear motion member backward to a backward movement position where the clearance is allowed to be equal to or more than the backlash, in a case where there is no braking force request for the electric brake device.
