Fluid Actuated Brakes TRIZ Cases

Compressed gas entrains ambient air to convectively cool aircraft brake friction disks, limiting oxidation damage and extending disk life.

By placing the brake disc assembly inside the brake chamber, this case cuts sealing parts, installation space, and oil reservoir needs.

Guided axial disc movement replaces corrosion-prone springs to cut residual friction, wear, and brake lock time.

A piston-loaded disc element deforms under fluid pressure to deliver fast, accurate rod braking and clamping with small stroke.

A seam-clasped bifurcated bracket secures a wheel heat shield against brake heat while limiting deflection, plastic strain, and abrasion.

A replaceable sacrificial bushing absorbs wear between the torque button and torque plate, preventing deformation and extending brake service life.

Nested inner and outer crushable tubes keep brake piston return stroke constant as friction elements wear, without increasing axial envelope.

An angled recess and adjusting bolt let a multi-disc brake release in emergencies without adding axial or radial installation space.

Multiple axial coupling positions let one brake pack stop fit different stator and rotor plate stacks, cutting rework and maintenance effort.

Strain-gauge sensor feedback tracks clamp and release states in a compact split-housing shaft brake, improving safety with fewer parts.

Resilient latch teeth let the wear sleeve advance but block back movement, preserving piston travel and brake response as discs wear.

A sealed dual-disc brake layout contains and collects brake dust while preserving cooling and brake reliability in low-use EV braking.

An integrated clutch and brake layout enables two-stage planetary shifting in electric drive trains while keeping bearing support compact and reliable.

A steel sheet-metal plate carrier paired with an aluminum housing cuts wear, weight, and coating cost in hybrid drive multi-plate brakes.

A pressure-piece sensor tracks position change to detect brake wear limits in tight spaces without complex wear detection hardware.

Elastic bending plates and a sealed pressure chamber create shaft clamping force in a compact, low-part brake assembly with maintenance-free operation.

By evacuating liquid from the brake chamber when released, this brake cuts oil drag and heat while retaining wet-brake cooling during braking.

A fusible brake disk section melts to disconnect torque when accidental brake application causes overheating, reducing fire and thermal damage.

A chamfered seal groove with two curvature radii improves piston return, suppresses brake dragging, and preserves low-pressure response.

Dual fluid chambers and an elastic unit boost disc clamp braking force and keep the rotary table safely braked during fluid failure.

Centrifugal oil flow drains the brake compartment at high shaft speed, cutting viscous drag while preserving lubrication and cooling during braking.

An electrorheological fluid brake uses electric-field viscosity control and heat exchange to deliver wheel braking without wear or particulate pollution.

Compressed gas drives an airflow amplifier to entrain ambient air and cool aircraft brake disks, reducing oxidation and extending disk life.

Nested inner and outer crushable tubes extend piston stroke without increasing axial envelope, while maintaining return stroke and release clearance.

A convex, elastically deforming piston cap spreads brake compression force across the pressure plate to reduce stress concentration, wear, and buckling.

A sacrificial bushing isolates the torque button from the torque plate, absorbing brake stack wear and extending service life.

Machined CMC stators are repositioned with new C/C disks to cut brake overhaul waste and preserve aircraft brake stack mass and wear balance.

A stepped seal groove depth reduces piston-seal friction during brake release while preserving sealing and thermal expansion space.
