CA 2170168

The brake system employs a ring braking member and a suspended brake caliper having a responsive linkage correcting the caliper and a knuckle support arrangement. The ring braking member is preferably die cast as a single component with a control hub and is of a lightweight, high strength, high temperature aluminum composite material. The brake system is designed to have a relatively thick ring brake member of this lightweight material to provide sufficient capacity to absorb the heat of braking and transfer of this heat to the surrounding air prior to the ring brake reaching a temperature where damage is likely to occur. The normal operating temperature is well below the theoretical maximum temperature or rated temperature of the composite material.

Le système de freinage comporte une bague-frein et un étrier suspendu ayant une liaison réactive qui corrige l'étrier et un dispositif d'appui articulé. La bague-frein est de préférence coulée sous pression d'une pièce avec un moyeu de commande et est faite d'un matériau composite léger, réfractaire et à haute résistance à base d'aluminium. Le système de freinage est conçu pour avoir une bague-frein relativement épaisse de ce matériau léger de manière à avoir la capacité voulue pour absorber la chaleur produite par le freinage et en transférer une partie à l'air ambiant avant que la bague-frein n'atteigne une température à laquelle il y aura vraisemblablement des dommages. La température d'utilisation normale est bien inférieure à la température théorique maximale ou nominale du matériau composite.
