Abstract
An electromechanical brake integrates a function of a parking brake by adding a simple structure to an existing electromechanical brake. In particular, the electromechanical brake includes a parking braking releasing structure configured to automatically release parking braking after a parking brake operates. In addition, the electromechanical brake is implemented to perform and release parking braking by using a drive unit which may operate in a single direction instead of using a drive unit which may operate in two directions.
