Abstract

966,510. Disc brakes. GIRLING Ltd. March 29, 1963 [April 7, 1962], No. 13498/62. Addition to 935,171. Heading F2E. In a disc brake for rail vehicles wherein brake pads 12 engaging opposed braking surfaces on a wheel or wheel hub or axle mounted disc are carried on the inner ends of co-operating caliper levers 10, 11 pivoted at 14 to a coupling yoke 13, pins 15, 21 mounted in the outer ends of the levers are respectively guided in inclined straight or arcuate slots 16, 22 in fixed plates 17 or hardened members secured thereto so as to maintain the pads in a substantially constant radial position relative to the braking surfaces throughout the pad wear life, the outer end of the lever 10 being connected through a rod 20 and, preferably, through an automatic slack adjuster to a fluid pressure actuator for normal service brake application, and the outer end of the lever 11 being connected through a pin-andslot 21, 23, a lever 24 on a fixed pivot 25, slot- and-pin 27, 28 and nut-and-screw to a hand wheel 33 or like means for manual brake application.
