Abstract: A rim rotor braking system has an integrally formed rotor portion that is orientated at 90 degree to the rim. The rotor is compressed between calipers in a braking system that is attached to a portion of a vehicle such as a bicycle fork. The rotor's orientation maximizes heat transfer to the air and allows the braking system to efficiently stop the vehicle. The brake system may be mounted under the fork or adjacent to it. The rim may be made of aluminum, titanium, steel or any other suitable material. The braking mechanism may be mechanical, hydraulic or electric. In one embodiment, dual rotors are disposed on either side of the rim to provide extra braking power. In yet another embodiment, the rotor is replaceable.

Abstract translation: 轮辋转子制动系统具有与轮辋成90度定向的整体形成的转子部分。 转子在制动系统中的卡钳之间被压缩，该制动系统附接到车辆的一部分，例如自行车叉。 转子的方向最大限度地增加了对空气的传热，并允许制动系统有效地停止车辆。 制动系统可以安装在叉子下面或与其相邻。 轮辋可以由铝，钛，钢或任何其他合适的材料制成。 制动机构可以是机械的，液压的或电的。 在一个实施例中，双转子设置在轮辋的两侧以提供额外的制动力。 在另一个实施例中，转子是可更换的。
