Wheel Brake Arrangement Abstract Backing plates are normally bolted to wheel gear housings and brake shoes are normally biased against such backing plates. Hydraulic or pneumatic lines normally proceed externally of the housing and over the backing plate to connect with a wheel cylinder which motivates the brake shoes. Such hydraulic lines can be easily damaged. A wheel brake arrangement is disclosed which eliminates external hydraulic or pneumatic lines and eliminates such a backing plate. At least one conduit is formed within a housing. The conduit is connected directly to a wheel cylinder. The wheel cylinder is mounted to one end of the housing. A biasing structure can serve for biasing a brake shoe into contacting relation with one end of the housing. A piloting arrangement can serve for properly aligning the wheel cylinder to motivate the brake shoe and to receive pressurized fluid from the conduit.
