摘要： A control system for a disc brake adjuster mechanism includes a controller and an electric adjuster motor for operable connection to an adjuster mechanism for driving a friction lining towards and away from a disc brake rotor to maintain a predetermined running clearance between the brake rotor and the friction lining when a brake is not applied. The system further includes a brake displacement sensor, and the controller is programmed to determine the brake displacement at which a predetermined load on the friction lining is achieved due to the contact with the disc brake rotor. The predetermined load is determined from a parameter of the electric adjuster motor or adjuster mechanism. The system is programmed to measure the brake displacement during brake release.

摘要： A brake system includes a brake disc having a first disc face and a second disc face on a first side and a second side, respectively, of the brake disc. The brake disc is mounted rotatably fast with but longitudinally slidable on a rotatable shaft. The brake disc is clampable between a first friction surface of a fixed brake pad positioned on the first side of the brake disc and a second friction surface of a moveable brake pad positioned on the second side of the brake disc. The system further includes a disc positioner operable to define a running clearance between the first disc face and the first friction surface. The disc positioner is adjustable to maintain the running clearance as the fixed brake pad wears. A biasing member located on the second side of the brake disc maintains contact between the disc positioner and first disc face of the brake disc.

摘要： A brake assembly includes a sensor mounted to a brake component, and which is in communication with a transceiver. The sensor provides position information of the brake component, which is combined with known mechanical relationships between various brake components, to determine a wear state of a brake pad and a clearance between the brake pad and a rotor. The clearance is then adjusted based on signals from the sensor and the known mechanical relationship between the various brake components to maintain the clearance within desired limits.

摘要： A brake caliper includes an actuator, a moveable brake pad including a brake pad backplate having a generally planar portion, and a friction material secured to the brake pad backplate. The brake pad backplate is being generally arcuate in shape and defines a friction material outer radius and has a friction face for engagement with a brake disc. The brake pad defines a wear limit of the friction material at a wear limit plane that is parallel to the friction face. The brake pad backplate includes a first pad abutment to limit rotation of the brake pad in a first direction. The first pad abutment is defined on a first lug surface of a first lug projecting from the generally planar portion, and the first lug surface is at a radius larger than the friction material outer radius and is positioned on the friction face side of the wear limit plane. The brake caliper also includes a stationary brake pad and a frame having a housing region for receiving the actuator, a reaction side portion for receiving the stationary brake pad in an axially static manner, and a first bridge arm connecting the housing region to the reaction side portion. The actuator is operable to move the moveable brake pad towards the stationary brake pad. The first pad abutment engages a first bridge abutment on the first bridge arm to limit rotation of the brake pad in the first direction.

摘要： A trailer axle assembly includes a non-rotating axle tube that extends laterally between a pair of wheel ends. Each wheel end supports a disc brake assembly that selectively generates a braking force to slow or stop rotation of the wheel ends. The disc brake assemblies include a torque plate that is mounted to the axle tube. The axle tube includes a radial location feature that holds the torque plate fixed relative to the axle tube so that rotational brake torque is transmitted directly through a solid interface. The axle tube also includes an axial location feature that positions the torque plate at a predetermined location along the axle beam and prevents relative axial movement between the axle beam and the torque plate.
