Embodiment Construction

[0027] exist figure 1 In, an embodiment of a brake system 10 is disclosed. The brakes 26 may be provided on a track of the brake system 10 , a brake disc of the machine, etc. 14 (each referred to herein as a "track" in the detailed description). To better illustrate the brake 26, the figure 1 Only the portion of the track 14 disposed between the components of the brake 26 is shown.

[0028] Brakes 26 may be secured to machine 16 or to the floor near machine ( 16 ) by one or more supports 28 . Each support 28 may have a generally u-shape or another suitable geometric configuration. exist figure 1 In the embodiment shown in , supports 28 may be located at each end of brake 26 . One or more brakes 26 may be utilized.

[0029] figure 2 A cross-sectional view of the brake 26 on the track 14 is shown. The view is taken along the width of the brake 26 . Figure 3-4 Each shows another cross-sectional view of the brake on the rail 14 . exist image 3 In , it shows that the ...

Abstract

A brake (26) for machine (16) and method of using the brake (26) is disclosed. The brake (26) may comprise first and second brake linings (38) configured to be frictionally engageable with a rail (14), a first biasing member (34) configured to urge the first brake lining (38) to engage the rail (14), and a first actuator (30) configured to move the first brake lining (38) to disengage the rail (14) when the first actuator (30) is energized. The brake (26) may be configured to be mounted on a machine (16), floor or the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates generally to braking devices, and in particular, to braking devices for industrial machines and the like. Background technique [0002] Machines can employ electromechanical brakes to stop or temporarily hold specific motions. Such brakes may generally employ a clutch-type braking mechanism to supply a holding or braking torque sufficient to slow or hold a particular motion. [0003] The braking torque supplied by a clutch-type brake is mechanically produced by friction between a track, rotating disc brake, etc. and a set of friction pads releasably arranged to contact the disc brake, Surfaces of tracks, etc. Engagement or disengagement of the friction pads may be controlled mechanically or electromechanically. While such brakes can be effective and are widely used today, they still have room for improvement. Expect better, more efficient designs. Contents of the invention [0004] According to one aspect of the pr...
