US 2026/0034972 A1 · BRAKE APPARATUS

Abstract

A brake apparatus may include first and second wheel speed sensors disposed in each of wheels of a vehicle and configured to measure a speed of the wheel, a controller configured to control braking of the wheel in response to a wheel speed signal outputted from at least one of the first and second wheel speed sensors, a brake actuator disposed in each of the wheels of the vehicle and configured to brake the wheel, first and second brake drive circuits configured to control a driving power source of the brake actuator on the basis of the control of the controller, an actuator housing to which the first and second wheel speed sensors are coupled and in which the first and second brake drive circuits are accommodated, and a plurality of circuits configured to connect each of the first wheel speed sensor, the second wheel speed sensor, the first brake drive circuit, and the second brake drive circuit to the controller.
