Braking Members TRIZ Cases

A disk brake pad retainer uses impact suppressing parts to absorb collision forces between lug pieces and guide grooves.

Offset return springs cause unbalanced forces and rocking in drum brakes. The double dogleg web widens the stance to counteract these lateral loads.

Dimensioning radial projections to lining thickness differences prevents contact with the brake drum during severe wear.

Merged retainer and anchor block eliminate separate components, reducing assembly complexity and production costs in floating shoe drum brakes.

Offset cam follower engagement aligns force vectors with the pivot arc, reducing web stress and enabling thicker linings.

A brake shoe element merges a web segment and spherical support segment into one piece for pivoted mounting.

Integral tab members reinforce backing plate ends, preventing cracking when brake shoes extend beyond the brake head.

Specific chamfer geometry minimizes heavy-duty braking noise while maintaining friction surface area and service life.

Martensitic hardened chromium steel brake band eliminates expensive coating steps by delivering high wear resistance through material composition.

A wheel hub bearing system integrates a caliper brake mechanism with self-lubricating inner bearings for slow-speed wheeled implements.

A drum brake uses a common pivot axis for two shoes to enhance self-energization.

Intermetallic bonding eliminates complex swage coupling, reducing manufacturing costs while maintaining strong structural integrity.

A braking device uses flat spline mechanisms to amplify spring and compressed air forces for rapid shaft clamping.

Segmented lining holders enable quick replacement without dismantling heavy vehicle brakes, reducing maintenance downtime.

Segmented parking levers coupled by a pin reduce volume and ensure axle bearing mounting space.

A steel-backed bidirectional synchronous spline broaching device synchronizes blade movement to form uniform grooves on brake pad substrates.

Varying curvature in the supporting unit distributes contact force to optimize wear patterns and extend service life without adding weight.

Unified spring-loaded assembly adapts to cross-sectional variations while applying consistent braking forces.

A concave pressing surface compensates for excessive end compression during molding, preventing non-uniform hardness and density that cause brake squeal.

A brake spider anchor pin assembly uses a deformable sleeve to secure the fastener, eliminating insertion stress and operational noise in the mounting hole.

Aligned sleeves increase radial distance from the brake center, reducing self-energizing effects and improving force consistency.

A drum brake shoe features a rigid web cut-out that exposes the cable attachment terminal.

Tapered surfaces on a brake head extension apply focused force to eject trapped debris, restoring optimal brake shoe engagement and application efficiency.

Integrated brake shoe web prevents screw rotation without extra parts, minimizing sliding friction and wear.
