Electronic Wedge Brake

This project is devoted to research of Electronic Wedge Brake - a novel self-reinforcing mechanism, which operates around the point of maximum self-reinforcement in order to minimise actuation forces.

A major problem with conventional brakes with an electric actuator is the high acuator force which has to be applied in order to acieve a sufficient braking effect.

Actuator of Electronic wedge brake has to apply an actuation force which is considerably smaller than that of coventional brakes, so that Electronic wedge brake is suitable, for example, for use in motor vehicles or else in railbound vehicles.
