摘要 |
The invention relates to a brake actuator, especially for a rail vehicle brake, comprising a service brake unit with a brake force generator for applying and/or releasing the brake, an accumulator brake unit with an energy accumulator device for accumulating and delivering energy for applying the brake as an operative emergency brake and/or as a parking brake, and a force conversion device for converting the energy that is provided by the brake force generator and/or the energy accumulator device into a brake application movement. The invention provides that the brake actuator has an additional energy accumulator device for accumulating and delivering energy for applying and/or releasing the brake. The additional energy accumulator device and the brake force generator can be designed in such a way that the force required of the brake force generator during a braking operation in order to generate a defined brake application force level that is greater than zero but less than the maximum brake force is zero.
