Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to an electronic hydraulic brake device, and more particularly, to an electronic hydraulic brake device capable of quickly performing auxiliary braking even when main brake fluid is blocked due to an error in main braking, thereby improving driving stability. Background Art
[0002] Generally, an electronic hydraulic brake device uses the hydraulic pressure of a master hydraulic cylinder driven by an electric motor to adjust the brake pressure of each wheel after the pedal pressure applied by the driver is detected by a sensor.

[0004] In addition, the electronic hydraulic brake system includes a pedal travel simulator, allowing the driver to feel the same pedal pressure as a typical hydraulic brake system.
[0005] Therefore, when the driver depresses the brake pedal, the electronic control unit detects this movement and supplies hydraulic pressure to the master cylinder.
