<p>An aircraft multiple disc and brake assembly (10) having an axle (23) with a cylindrical wheel member (11) journaled thereon. The inner peripheral portion of the wheel member has a plurality of circumferentially spaced splines (37) to support axially spaced rotor discs (44-47) which are interleaved with stator discs (38-42) which are splined to axially extending ribs (35) mounted on a torque tube (32) which in turn is connected to the axle (23). A piston support member (25) is secured to the axle (23) via a hub member (26) and has a plurality of circumferentially spaced cylinders (28) with a piston (50) slidably mounted therein. One end of each piston cooperates with the receiving cylinder (28') to define a piston chamber (55) that permits pressurization to actuate the braking action. The other end of the piston (57) has a pair of discs (58,59) with mating spherical contoured surfaces to permit a tilting therebetween to eliminate side loading and provide even wear. <IMAGE></p> |
