    摘要: A parking brake actuating mechanisms (10) having first (11) and second (15) pivotally interconnected levers which act between brake shoes (14,18) so that pivoting (P) of the first lever relative to the second lever increases the effective length of the mechanism thus moving the associated brake shoes apart to engage the parking brake. The first lever includes an actuating cable abutment formation (31a) against which an actuating cable nipple (28) on a free end of a cable (27) is drawn to move the first lever (11) hence operating the mechanism. The first lever is also of hollow form defining a guide passage (29) through which the free end of the cable is directed from an aperture (24) in the backplate (23) of the associated brake to a location adjacent to the abutment formation (31a) to enable the nipple to be engaged with the formation. A leaf spring (40) is also provided to tend to maintain the cable nipple (28) in position for engagement with the abutment formation (31a) on the first lever (11).

    摘要: A brake adjuster comprises a variable length strut (16) having two end portions (30, 31) and an intermediate portion (32) therebetween which is in screw threaded engagement with one of the end portions (31). A pawl (39) is attached to the other end portion (30) and engages an array of ratchet teeth (38) on the intermediate portion (32). As the end portions of the strut (30, 31) move apart during a brake application the pawl (39) rides up a flank of a ratchet tooth (38a) and if the movement apart exceeds a predetermined amount engages behind the tooth. When the end portions (30, 31) move towards each other in the next brake disengagement, the intermediate portion (32) is rotated relative to said one of the end portions (31) to increase the effective length of the strut (16). The pawl (39) may be bi-metallic and arranged to disengage the ratchet teeth (38) if the temperature of the adjuster rises above a predetermined level.

    摘要: A damping means in the form of a pre-damper member (14) for use in a clutch driven plate (1) of a vehicle transmission. The clutch driven plate has a central hub (10) for operative connection with an associated driven shaft. The hub is capable of limited rotation relative to the remainder of the driven plate and a plurality of leaf springs (23) oppose this limited relative rotation thus damping torsional vibrations in the driven plate. The leaf springs (23) may be integral with an outer ring member (22) to form a one piece damping means. The outer ring member (52) may be formed from a plastics material.

    摘要: A parking brake assembly which includes a lever (15) for operation of a brake shoe (11, 12) to provide a parking function. The lever (15) has an automatic latching device (21, 22, 23) for automatically latching to the lever (15) an end fitting (20) on an operating cable (19). The automatic latching device (21, 22, 23) comprises a flap (22) mounted on the lever (15) which is deflected aside by the end fitting (20) as the cable (19) is fed in a first direction towards the lever (15) and which latches behind an abutment (20a) on the end fitting (20) to latch the cable (19) to the lever (15) so that subsequent movement of the cable (19) in a second direction opposite to the first direction moves the lever (15) to operate the parking function.

    摘要: A twin mass flywheels having an input mass (11) for connection with an engine, an output mass (12) for connection with a transmission, bearing means (14) supporting the masses for limited relative rotation, an annular radially extending flange (18) connected adjacent its outer or inner periphery with one (11) of the masses, a pair of annular side plates (21,22) located on either side of the flange (18) and connected at their inner or outer peripheries with the other mass (12), and circumferentially extending spring means (16) acting between the flange (18) and the side plates (21,22) to damp relative rotation between the masses. The other peripheries (21a,22a) of the side plates remote from their connection with the other mass (12) contact the flange (18) on either side thereof to limit the tipping of the masses relative to each other during relative rotation. The side plates (21,22) may also either contact the flange (18b) or apply axial pressure to a component (33) rotatable with the flange at a location (21b,22b) radially inboard of the spring means (16) to lend further stabilize the masses against tipping. A friction device (32) may be provided between the side plates (21,22) adjacent the radially inner periphery of the flange (18).

    摘要: In a clearance compensator a rod (12) is fixed to one of the shoes of the brake and is slidable in an intermediate element (13) threadedly engaged in another rod (11) secured to the other shoe. A heat-sensitive bi-metal strip (18) projects from a leaf spring (14) operable to urge the rod (12) away from the intermediate element (13). The bi-metal strip (18) is orientated substantially tangentially of a ratchet wheel (17) fixed to the intermediate element (13); at its free end, the bi-metal strip (18) has a stop element (18a) for engaging the ratchet wheel (17). At temperatures above a predetermined value, the strip (18) assumes a heat-induced deflected condition in which the stop element (18a) is disengaged from the wheel (17).

    摘要: A clutch driven plate which includes a hub (10), an outer annular friction member (11) rotatable relative to the hub through a first angular range against the action of a first or so-called idle damper which damps small torsional vibrations which occur typically at engine idle speeds and is rotatable relative to the hub through a further second angular range against the action of a further second or main drive damper, both the idle and main drive damper including first (21) and second (16) respective circumferentially acting springs. The idle damper also includes a first friction damping means (22) which provides a first level of frictional resistance to relative rotation during a first portion of the first angular range of rotation and a second friction damping means (23) which provides a second and higher level of frictional resistance during a second portion of the first angular range of rotation. The main drive damper may also include a third friction damping means which provides further frictional resistance during the main drive range of operation of the driven plate.

    摘要: A parking brake actuating mechanism in which a first lever (11) acts on a first brake shoe web (13) and a second lever (15) pivoted on the first lever (11) acts on a second brake shoe web (17). The first lever (11) includes an actuating cable abutment formation (31') against which an actuating cable nipple (28) on the free end of a cable (25) is drawn to move the first lever to increase the effective length of the mechanism and hence move the associated brake shoes. The first lever (11) is of hollow form defining a guide passage (29) which directs the free end of the cable from an aperture (24) in the backplate (23) of the associated brake to a location adjacent the abutment formation (31') to enable the nipple (28) to be engaged with the formation (31'). A portion (11') of the first lever outside the guide passage (29) may guide the cable from the end of the passage towards the abutment formation (31'). The second lever may also be shaped (32) to assist in guiding the nipple (28) into engagement with the abutment formation (31') when the nipple emerges from the end of the passage (29).
