A composite brake drum particularly adapted for motor vehicle applications. The brake drum includes a reinforcement assembly embedded within the cylindrical portion of the drum. The reinforcement assembly is preferably made from steel wire stock and includes a plurality of circular loops spaced axially within the brake drum cylindrical portion. Axially extending locator wires are mechanically fastened to the reinforcing loops and serve to locate the loops. End portions on the locator wire contact only one of the mold halves forming the mold cavity and enable the device to be essentially self-locating without crossing the parting line of the mold. By not crossing the parting line, the position of the loops is maintained within acceptable tolerance limits from the finished friction surface of the drum. The composite brake drum is fabricated by pouring molten iron into the mold and then performing finish machining operations.

ambour de frein particulièrement adapté aux utilisations dans des véhicules automobiles. Le tambour de frein comprend un renfort incrusté dans la partie cylindrique du tambour. Le renfort est, de préférence, fait de fil machine en acier et comprend un certain nombre de boucles circulaires espacées isolement dans la partie cylindrique du tambour de frein. Des fils de positionnement s'étendant isolement sont fixés mécaniquement aux boucles de renfort et servent à les positionner. Les extrémités du fil de positionnement ne touchent qu'à un des demis-moules formant la cavité du moule et permettent au dispositif d'être essentiellement auto-positionneur sans traverser la ligne de joint du moule. Parce ce que la ligne de joint du moule n'est pas franchie, la position des boucles est maintenue à l'intérieur de limites de tolérance acceptables pour la surface de friction usinée du tambour. Le tambour de frein composite est fabriqué en versant de la fonte en fusion dans le moule et en effectuant ensuite les opérations d'usinage de finition.
