摘要:
An aircraft brake assembly comprising a support leg, a main wheel rotatably mounted on the support leg, a brake comprising a first sub-assembly fixed to the main wheel and a second sub-assembly moveably mounted on the support leg and a ground reaction wheel coupled to the second sub-assembly, wherein on application of the brake, the first sub-assembly engages with the second sub-assembly to exert a braking force on the second sub-assembly; and wherein the ground reaction wheel is arranged to transfer the braking force from the second sub-assembly to the ground.
摘要:
A magnetic shock absorber having a first body slidably coupled to a second body via a first bearing arranged to move in sliding engagement with a first counter-face portion. A first array of magnets associated with the first body is arranged to magnetically interact with a second array of magnets associated with the second body to absorb compression or extension loads applied to the shock absorber. The first bearing and the first counter-face portion each have a non-circular cross section profile to inhibit axial relative rotation between the bodies.
