Definitions
- Exemplary embodiments generally relate to electronic hydraulic brake devices, and, more particularly, to electronic hydraulic brake devices, which can rapidly perform assist braking when a main braking error occurs in an integrated or separated-type braking system.
- an electronic hydraulic brake device serves to adjust braking pressure of each wheel using hydraulic pressure of a master cylinder, which is driven by a motor after a driver's pedal pressure is sensed through a sensor.
- the electronic hydraulic brake device typically includes a sensor for sensing a stroke of the pedal such that a driver can recognize desired braking pressure.
- the electronic hydraulic brake device may also include a pedal travel simulator, which enables the driver to feel the same pedal pressure as in a conventional hydraulic brake device. Therefore, when the driver steps on the brake pedal, an electronic control unit senses the stepping operation and supplies hydraulic pressure to the master cylinder.
- the master cylinder transfers braking hydraulic pressure to a wheel cylinder of each wheel to provide a braking force to the wheel.
- a conventional electronic hydraulic brake device may not rapidly provide braking hydraulic pressure to the wheel cylinder when the motor is damaged, and thus, can cause an accident. Therefore, there is a need for a device capable of solving this issue.

Description
- This application is a Continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 16/739,079, filed Jan. 9, 2020, which claims priority to and the benefit of Korean Patent Application No. 10-2019-0045335, filed Apr. 18, 2019, each of which is hereby incorporated by reference for all purposes as if fully set forth herein.
- Exemplary embodiments generally relate to electronic hydraulic brake devices, and, more particularly, to electronic hydraulic brake devices, which can rapidly perform assist braking when a main braking error occurs in an integrated or separated-type braking system.
- In general, an electronic hydraulic brake device serves to adjust braking pressure of each wheel using hydraulic pressure of a master cylinder, which is driven by a motor after a driver's pedal pressure is sensed through a sensor. The electronic hydraulic brake device typically includes a sensor for sensing a stroke of the pedal such that a driver can recognize desired braking pressure. The electronic hydraulic brake device may also include a pedal travel simulator, which enables the driver to feel the same pedal pressure as in a conventional hydraulic brake device. Therefore, when the driver steps on the brake pedal, an electronic control unit senses the stepping operation and supplies hydraulic pressure to the master cylinder. The master cylinder transfers braking hydraulic pressure to a wheel cylinder of each wheel to provide a braking force to the wheel. A conventional electronic hydraulic brake device may not rapidly provide braking hydraulic pressure to the wheel cylinder when the motor is damaged, and thus, can cause an accident. Therefore, there is a need for a device capable of solving this issue.

As used herein, the terms “embodiments” and “implementations” are used interchangeably and are non-limiting examples employing one or more of the inventive concepts disclosed herein. It is apparent, however, that various exemplary embodiments may be practiced without these specific details or with one or more equivalent arrangements. In other instances, well-known structures and devices are shown in block diagram form in order to avoid unnecessarily obscuring various exemplary embodiments. Further, various exemplary embodiments may be different, but do not have to be exclusive. For example, specific shapes, configurations, and characteristics of an exemplary embodiment may be used or implemented in another exemplary embodiment without departing from the inventive concepts.
- Unless otherwise specified, the illustrated exemplary embodiments are to be understood as providing exemplary features of varying detail of some exemplary embodiments. Therefore, unless otherwise specified, the features, components, modules, layers, films, panels, regions, aspects, etc. (hereinafter individually or collectively referred to as an “element” or “elements”), of the various illustrations may be otherwise combined, separated, interchanged, and/or rearranged without departing from the inventive concepts.
- The use of cross-hatching and/or shading in the accompanying drawings is generally provided to clarify boundaries between adjacent elements. As such, neither the presence nor the absence of cross-hatching or shading conveys or indicates any preference or requirement for particular materials, material properties, dimensions, proportions, commonalities between illustrated elements, and/or any other characteristic, attribute, property, etc., of the elements, unless specified. Further, in the accompanying drawings, the size and relative sizes of elements may be exaggerated for clarity and/or descriptive purposes. As such, the sizes and relative sizes of the respective elements are not necessarily limited to the sizes and relative sizes shown in the drawings. When an exemplary embodiment may be implemented differently, a specific process order may be performed differently from the described order. For example, two consecutively described processes may be performed substantially at the same time or performed in an order opposite to the described order. Also, like reference numerals denote like elements.
- When an element is referred to as being “on,” “connected to,” or “coupled to” another element, it may be directly on, connected to, or coupled to the other element or intervening elements may be present. When, however, an element is referred to as being “directly on,” “directly connected to,” or “directly coupled to” another element, there are no intervening elements present. Other terms and/or phrases used to describe a relationship between elements should be interpreted in a like fashion, e.g., “between” versus “directly between,” “adjacent” versus “directly adjacent,” “on” versus “directly on,” etc. Further, the term “connected” may refer to physical, electrical, and/or fluid connection. For the purposes of this disclosure, “at least one of X, Y, and Z” and “at least one selected from the group consisting of X, Y, and Z” may be construed as X only, Y only, Z only, or any combination of two or more of X, Y, and Z, such as, for instance, XYZ, XYY, YZ, and ZZ. As used herein, the term “and/or” includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.
- Although the terms “first,” “second,” etc. may be used herein to describe various elements, these elements should not be limited by these terms. These terms are used to distinguish one element from another element. Thus, a first element discussed below could be termed a second element without departing from the teachings of the disclosure.
- Spatially relative terms, such as “beneath,” “below,” “under,” “lower,” “above,” “upper,” “over,” “higher,” “side” (e.g., as in “sidewall”), and the like, may be used herein for descriptive purposes, and, thereby, to describe one element's relationship to another element(s) as illustrated in the drawings. Spatially relative terms are intended to encompass different orientations of an apparatus in use, operation, and/or manufacture in addition to the orientation depicted in the drawings. For example, if the apparatus in the drawings is turned over, elements described as “below” or “beneath” other elements or features would then be oriented “above” the other elements or features. Thus, the exemplary term “below” can encompass both an orientation of above and below. Furthermore, the apparatus may be otherwise oriented (e.g., rotated 90 degrees or at other orientations), and, as such, the spatially relative descriptors used herein interpreted accordingly.
- The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments and is not intended to be limiting. As used herein, the singular forms, “a,” “an,” and “the” are intended to include the plural forms as well, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. Moreover, the terms “comprises,” “comprising,” “includes,” and/or “including,” when used in this specification, specify the presence of stated features, integers, steps, operations, elements, components, and/or groups thereof, but do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integers, steps, operations, elements, components, and/or groups thereof. It is also noted that, as used herein, the terms “substantially,” “about,” and other similar terms, are used as terms of approximation and not as terms of degree, and, as such, are utilized to account for inherent deviations in measured, calculated, and/or provided values that would be recognized by one of ordinary skill in the art.
- Various exemplary embodiments are described herein with reference to sectional views, isometric views, perspective views, plan views, and/or exploded illustrations that are schematic illustrations of idealized exemplary embodiments and/or intermediate structures. As such, variations from the shapes of the illustrations as a result of, for example, manufacturing techniques and/or tolerances, are to be expected. Thus, exemplary embodiments disclosed herein should not be construed as limited to the particular illustrated shapes of regions, but are to include deviations in shapes that result from, for instance, manufacturing. To this end, regions illustrated in the drawings may be schematic in nature and shapes of these regions may not reflect the actual shapes of regions of a device, and, as such, are not intended to be limiting.
- Unless otherwise defined, all terms (including technical and scientific terms) used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure is a part. Terms, such as those defined in commonly used dictionaries, should be interpreted as having a meaning that is consistent with their meaning in the context of the relevant art and will not be interpreted in an idealized or overly formal sense, unless expressly so defined herein.
