摘要： A brake pedal module for a brake-by-wire brake system of a vehicle is disclosed, having a brake pedal, which can be secured pivotably on the vehicle and can be moved between a rest position and an end position, and a feedback unit for producing a resistance during actuation of the brake pedal. The feedback unit has a first counterforce unit, which urges the brake pedal into the rest position, and at least one further counterforce unit, which acts in parallel with the first counterforce unit as regards their interconnection, and/or a damping unit, which acts in parallel with the first counterforce unit as regards their interconnection.

摘要： A brake pedal module for a brake-by-wire brake system of a vehicle is disclosed. The brake pedal module includes a pivotably mounted brake pedal and a damping unit. The damping unit is mechanically coupled to the brake pedal to generate a resistance when the brake pedal is actuated. The brake pedal module comprises a sensor unit for detecting a braking intention of a driver. The sensor unit comprises at least one sensor for detecting an actuating travel, which is arranged on a pivot bearing of the brake pedal, and at least one further sensor for detecting an actuating force, which is arranged on a rear side of the brake pedal when considered in a plan view of an actuating surface of the brake pedal.
