Provided is an electric parking brake device in which a drum brake includes braking gap automatic adjustment means and a parking brake lever, and the operation of an electric actuator that drives the parking brake lever is controlled by a control unit. When an application operation time of the electric actuator (38) by the time when a parking brake state is obtained has exceeded a predetermined application operation end determination time (T2), the control unit (C) determines that the braking gap automatic adjustment means (18) is abnormal. With this configuration, at the time of obtaining the parking brake state, the presence or absence of abnormality in the braking gap automatic adjustment means can be determined.

A disc brake having a piston and a wear adjustment mechanism. The piston has a hollow rotatable portion. The wear adjustment mechanism may include a friction clutch having one or more input plates and one or more output plates arranged in a face-contacting relationship. The output plate(s) may be located within the rotatable portion and may directly drivingly engage the rotatable portion.

A vehicle braking system includes a piston rod extendable from an air brake chamber, a rotatable cam shaft, and a slack adjuster coupled to the piston rod and the cam shaft. The slack adjuster is configured to rotate the cam shaft as the piston rod extends. The slack adjuster has a control gear coupled to the cam shaft such that the control gear rotates as the cam shaft is rotated. A pinion gear meshes with the control gear such that the pinion gear rotates as the control gear rotates, and a take-off gear meshes with the pinion gear such that the take-off gear rotates as the control gear rotates. A magnet coupled to the take-off gear is configured to rotate as the take-off gear rotates. A sensor is configured to sense rotation of the magnet, and an indicator is configured to indicate brake stroke of the piston rod.

A slack adjuster for narrow gauge rail cars including a housing having a body with a first clevis joint, a coupling secured to the body, and a guide tube secured to the body coupling. A lever is pivotally coupled to the housing for moving an actuator coupled to a clutch. The clutch is engaged with the external threads of a rod and moveable between a first captured position, a second position where the clutch is free to rotate, and a second captured position to selectively control movement of the rod. Movement of the lever withdraws the actuator so that the clutch releases and can spin, allowing the threaded rod to translate from the retracted to extended positions. Opposing forces applied to a ram causes the clutch to move to the second captured position, thereby preventing rotation of the clutch and preventing the threaded rod from retracting further into the housing.
摘要:
A method for controlling an electric pad wear compensator device of a disc brake arrangement, in particular for a motor vehicle, and a corresponding disk brake arrangement is provided. The disk brake arrangement includes control device that controls air clearance between a brake pad and a brake disk, a brake application device with a brake applicator lever coupled to the electric pad wear compensator device, and a readjustment spindle which receives at least a portion of the electric pad wear compensator device. The method for controlling the electric pad wear compensator device includes sensing the air clearance of the disc brake, comparing the detected air clearance with a preset value, and controlling the electric pad wear compensator device to adjust the air clearance to the preset value by energizing a solenoid of a coupling device of the electric pad wear compensator device during brake applicator lever movement.
