Abstract
The present invention provides an electro wedge brake (EWB) system that implements a main braking function by using power generated by one motor. Further, the electro wedge brake system implements various additional functions such as a function for maintaining a set clearance of a pad, a Fail-Safe function, and an EPB function, by using that the forward movement of a push rod shaft screwed using a NSL (Non-Self Locking) type screw is restrained or released on the basis of ON/OFF control of the solenoid mechanism interlocked with the main braking function motor. Accordingly, since only one motor is used to generate power, it is possible to reduce the number of parts and to simplify the structure.
