Abstract
The invention relates to a wheel brake apparatus having an electric motor, a rotation/translation conversion mechanism that can be driven to rotate by the electric motor, a hydraulic working piston that can be moved by the rotation/translation conversion mechanism, and a brake lining piston that can be hydraulically moved by the working piston. In order to permit an emergency actuation of the wheel brake apparatus in the event of a leak in the hydraulics, the invention proposes embodying the wheel brake apparatus so that the brake lining piston can also be mechanically moved by the working piston. This can be achieved by virtue of the fact that the two pistons are disposed coaxially.
