Abstract

987,648. Disc brakes. GIRLING Ltd. Feb. 21, 1964 [March 14, 1963], No. 10109/63. Heading F2E. In a disc brake of the kind in which relatively stationary and rotatable surfaces are brought into frictional engagement by axial separation of a pair of co-operating pressure plates 17, 18 between which are arranged balls 19 working in complementary inclined ramps in the adjacent surfaces of the plates, the relative angular movement of the pressure plates to initiate application of the brake is effected by a lever 26 pivotally mounted on a lug 24 of one of the pressure plates 18 and a nose 27 of the lever 26 bears on an abutment formed by a notch 28 on the other pressure plate 17. In the embodiment illustrated, a shaft 10 is rotatably mounted in a stationary housing 11 and two axially spaced friction lined discs 12, 13 are splined on the shaft 10. The discs 12, 13 are adapted to be urged apart into frictional engagement with axially spaced radial braking surfaces 15, 16 on the housing by the co-operating pressure plates 17, 18 located between the disc. The pressure plates are located concentrically with respect to the axis of the brake by angularly spaced pilot projections 21, 22 on the housing co-operating with arcuate portions of the peripheral surfaces of the plates and by a third projection 23 which also serves as a stop co-operating with lugs on the pressure plates to arrest angular movement of one or other of the plates according to the direction of rotation of the discs. Instead of providing balls operating in inclined ramps, tapered rollers and wedges, rocking tappets or other means for urging the plates apart on relative angular movement between them may be used.
