Abstract
A hybrid electro-mechanical brake (EMB) includes an actuator mounted at one side of a housing and generating a motor clamping force. A primary piston is connected to a spindle, which rotates by a motor clamping force of the actuator, to linearly move when the spindle rotates. A secondary piston linearly moves and is mounted between the housing and the primary piston to form a hydraulic chamber between the second piston and the primary piston. The hybrid EMB system generates a brake force by using the motor clamping force of the actuator and a hydraulic pressure in a hydraulic chamber. The actuator actuates to move the primary piston toward a front end of the secondary piston to increase a pressure in the hydraulic chamber, which is sealed, so that the brake force transferred to the secondary piston increases.
