摘要： The braking mechanism comprises a toggle lever, a brake pad, and an incline. An incline actuates the braking mechanism by forcing an extension of the toggle lever. As the toggle lever extends, it pushes the brake pad closer to the surface to be slowed. Multiple toggle levers may be used to distribute the force across the brake pad. This configuration allows a single input from the incline to actuate both toggle levers. By adjusting the width of the incline actuating the toggle lever, the force on the brake pad may be adjusted.

摘要： A vehicle braking system includes a device for cooling the components of the brake assembly. The air source that is normally used to activate the brake assembly components is coupled with a plurality of flexible conduits that direct air toward one or more of the brake assembly components. A high velocity air nozzle preferably is provided at the end of each conduit. The air from the compressed air source is maintained in a compressed state through the conduits and decompresses as it exits the discharge nozzles. The decompression of the air through the nozzles results in cooling the air and the nearby brake components at which the air is directed.
