Abstract
A brake system that includes a first brake piston and a second brake piston; a motor; a distributing assembly that includes a first output and a second output, and a deactivator. The distributing assembly distributes torque or power from the motor to the first brake piston via the first output and to the second brake piston via the second output. In a first operating configuration, the deactivator is inactive, and the distributing assembly distributes the torque or power to both of the first and second outputs such that a speed of the first output and the second output varies. In a second operating configuration, the deactivator is configured to deactivate the distributing assembly and the distributing assembly distributes the torque or power to both of the first output and the second output such that the speed of the first output and the second output is generally the same.
