Aircraft braking device equipped with a sensor for measuring the braking torque of said device.

Abstract

A braking device for an aircraft wheel (101), comprising at least one stack (8) of at least one rotor disc (8.1) and one stator disc (8.2), an actuator housing (2), at least one actuator (13) mounted in the actuator housing (2) to exert a pressing force on the stack of discs (8), the actuator housing (2) comprising a connecting portion (2.1) to the landing gear and a receiving portion (2.2) for the actuator. The device includes a braking force sensor comprising: a body (1.1) having a first end (1.1.1) mechanically fixed to the connecting portion (2.1) and a second end (1.1.2) mechanically fixed to the receiving portion (2.2), the body being arranged to have a state representative of a distance between its two ends, and a sensing component near the body (1.1) for measuring a change in the state of the body (1.1).
