Vehicle and Brake Assistance Device for a Hydraulic Brake System for a Vehicle - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18552789 titled 'Vehicle and Brake Assistance Device for a Hydraulic Brake System for a Vehicle
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a patent application for a brake assistance device for a hydraulic brake system in a vehicle, which includes a sensor, compensation volume, 2/2-way valve, brake piston, and actuator.
- The brake assistance device includes a sensor with a first piston, a compensation volume with a second piston, and a pretensioning element.
- The pretensioning element exerts pressure onto the second piston and the hydraulic fluid of the brake system.
- The actuator can move the second piston in two directions, either towards or away from the first direction.
Potential Applications
The technology can be applied in electric vehicles, bicycles, scooters, and other vehicles with hydraulic brake systems.
Problems Solved
The brake assistance device helps improve the braking performance of vehicles by providing additional pressure to the hydraulic brake system.
Benefits
- Enhanced braking efficiency - Improved safety on the road - Reduced wear and tear on brake components
Potential Commercial Applications
"Enhancing Braking Performance in Vehicles with Brake Assistance Devices"
Possible Prior Art
There may be similar patents or innovations related to brake assistance devices for hydraulic brake systems in vehicles.
Unanswered Questions
How does the sensor interact with the other components of the brake assistance device?
The abstract does not provide detailed information on the specific function of the sensor in relation to the other parts of the device.
What is the specific mechanism by which the actuator moves the second piston in different directions?
The abstract mentions that the actuator can move the second piston in two directions, but it does not elaborate on the exact mechanism or process involved in this movement.
Original Abstract Submitted
A vehicle is driven by muscle power and/or an electric motor and includes a brake assistance device for a hydraulic brake system. The brake assistance device has a sensor with a first piston, a compensation volume with a second piston and a pretensioning element, a 2/2-way valve, a brake piston, and an actuator. The pretensioning element is configured to exert a pressure onto the second piston and thus onto a hydraulic fluid of the hydraulic brake system. The actuator is configured to move the second piston selectively in a first direction or in a second direction oriented opposite the first direction.
