    摘要: The electrically actuated braking system (10) comprises a controller mechanism (14) that may be activated by a switch (12). The controller mechanism (14) sends a signal to an electric drive motor (20), and receives braking force signals from a sensor (16) connected to one of two braking members (18, 19) connected with the drive motor (20). The drive motor (20) is operated by the controller mechanism (14) in order to rotate a drive member (31) of a load-equalizing differential (30), the load-equalizing differential (30) being connected by a flexible drive connection mechanism (50) with the braking members (18, 19). The load-equalizing differential (30) comprises the drive member (31) having a plurality of circumferentially spaced-apart openings (34) each of which receives therein a ball member (36, 36A). Disposed about the drive member (31) and balls (36, 36A) and facing each other are two plates (40, 42) each of which is connected with a segment of the flexible drive connection mechanism (50). Each plate (40, 42) has series of ramps (44) and cam tracks (46) which are shaped complementary to the ramps (44) and cam tracks (46) of the other plate (40, 42). Rotation of the drive member (31) by the drive motor (20) causes rotation of the plates (40, 42) so that equal torque may be applied, via the flexible drive connection mechanism (50), to the braking members (18, 19).

    摘要: A flow divider valve cooperates with a housing to control flow between an input port, a first output port and a second output port. The valve defines a first land and a second land and is movable within the housing to a first position wherein flow is decreased to the first output port and increased to the second output port, and to a second position wherein flow is decreased to the second output port and increased to the first output port. Movement of the valve to the first and second positions is controlled by pressure within the first and second output ports. A passage on the valve communicates flow to both sides of the valve.

    摘要: The disc brake (10, 106, 108, 206) with powered integral parking mechanism comprises a twin piston disc brake (106, 108, 206) having a screw member (22, 24; 122, 124; 222, 224) and nut (28, 29; 228, 229) adjuster mechanism. The twin pistons (16, 18; 216, 218) receive service braking hydraulic pressure to effect a service braking application, and also may be displaced mechanically for a parking application by way of the rack (80, 180) and pinion (47, 48; 247, 248) parking mechanism that is operated by hydraulic pressure. The rack (80, 180) and pinion (47, 48; 247, 248) parking mechanism may be located within the caliper housing (20, 220) such that the rack (80) extends between respective drive pinions (47, 48) located about the screw members (22, 24) in order to effect rotation of the screw members (22, 24) in opposite directions, or the rack (280) may extend longitudinally across the same side of both drive pinions (247, 248) to effect rotation of the drive pinions ( 247, 148) and associated screw members (222, 224) in the same direction of rotation. The drive pinions (47, 48; 247, 248) have ratchet teeth (49) which engage corresponding ratchet teeth (39) on screw member flanges (32, 34) such that during release the height (B) of a flange ratchet tooth (39) determines the running clearance of the disc brake pads.

    摘要: The disc brake (100) with variable width caliper comprises first and second bridge members (14, 15) which are connected with a pair of movable members (20, 30) extending over the periphery of the rotor (51). Each of the movable members (20, 30) is mounted upon an anchor extension (37A, 38A). An inboard end of each movable member (20, 30) includes threads (26, 36) upon which is threadably mounted a nut (28, 29). The nut (28, 29) has rachet teeth (12, 13) on one axial end which engage rachet teeth (10A, 11A) of an associated actuator sleeve (10, 11) disposed slidably about the movable member (20, 30). The second bridge member (15) is mounted slidably upon the movable members (20, 30). The actuator sleeves (10, 11) may be rotated by an actuator mechanism (70) which, through the engaged rachet teeth (10A, 11A; 12, 13), causes the nuts (28, 29) to rotate and effect translational movement of the movable members (20, 30). The actuator sleeves (10, 11) engage roller thrust bearings (44, 45) which, as the nuts (28, 29) change their positions along the movable members (20, 30), displace the second bridge member (15) and a friction lining mechanism (16) against the rotor (51), and by reaction, the movable members (20, 30) bring a friction lining mechanism (17) of the first bridge member (14) into engagement with the other face of the rotor (51). The second bridge member (15) may include one or more bores (50) each receiving therein a piston (52) and actuatable by hydraulic fluid.

    摘要: The electrically operated disc brake (10, 110, 310, 410) may be operated by either hydraulic pressure and an electric motor or operated solely by means of an electric motor. The electric motor (40, 340, 440) drives a sun gear (52, 352, 452) of a planetary gear assembly (50, 150, 350, 450). The planetary gear assembly (50, 150, 350, 450). includes a fixed ring gear (70, 370, 470) and a rotatable ring gear (80, 180, 380, 480), the rotatable ring gear (80, 180, 380, 480) having fewer teeth than the fixed ring gear (70, 370, 470) so that rotation of the planetary gears (54, 56, 58) effects a slower rate of rotation of the rotatable ring gear (80, 180, 380, 480). The rotatable ring gear (80, 180, 380, 480) engages a screw (88, 188, 388, 488) which is connected with the piston (30, 130, 330, 430). The piston (30, 330, 430) may be displaced by hydraulic fluid for a service application and the electric motor (40, 340, 440) utilized for a parking application. Alternatively, the piston (130) may be displaced by the electric motor (40) for both service and parking brake applications.
