Electric parking brake having a gearing with a torque limiting device
Abstract:
An electrically actuated parking brake has a single electric motor producing a torque, a first torque limiting device with a first spring force, and a second torque limiting device with a second spring force. The first torque limiting device fully transmits a first portion of the torque to a first spindle until a first clamp force overcomes the first spring force and the second torque limiting device fully transmits a second portion of the torque to a second spindle until a second clamp force overcomes the second spring force. When the first clamp force overcomes the first spring force and the second spring force overcomes the second clamp force, the first portion of the torque that exceeds the first spring force is transmitted to the second spindle by the second torque limiting device.
