BAND BRAKE AND ACTUATOR THEREFOR ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A band brake assembly includes a band which carries a friction lining for engagement with a rotatable member. A casing surrounds the band and a hydraulic actuator cooperates with a pair of links which are engaged with respective ends of the band. When the hydraulic actuator is operated, the hydraulic actuator is moved toward the rotatable member such that the pair of links are pivoted oppositely about the moving hydrau- lic actuator. The pivoting links are coupled to the band such that move- ment of the hydraulic actuator causes the band to contract the friction lining into engagement with the rotatable member. The pair of links are optionally provided with rollers which roll on the casing and the hydraulic actuator when the latter is operated. It is also possible to eliminate the casing so that the rollers roll on the band when the hydraulic actu- ator is operated.
