发明名称 Component with inlay for damping vibrations
摘要 An exemplary embodiment includes an automotive brake component, such as a brake drum or a brake rotor, and an inlay coupled to the automotive brake component. The inlay constituting at least a portion of a braking surface that is acted upon during a braking event. The inlay damping vibrations in the automotive brake component when the component is vibrated.

主权项 1. A product comprising: a drum for a drum brake assembly, the drum having a web portion and a hoop portion extending from the web portion; and at least one inlay located at the hoop portion and constituting at least a portion of a braking surface contacting a braking component, the inlay and the hoop portion being constructed and arranged so that an inner surface of the hoop portion and an opposing surface of the inlay provide an interface boundary of mechanically distinguishable surfaces that are in contact with each other and so that relative movement of the inner surface of the hoop portion and the opposing surface of the inlay at the interface boundary generates friction and dissipates heat thereby damping vibrations using Coulomb damping in the drum when the drum is vibrated.
