Mounting plate for a brake shoe of a braking system for a wind energy device

摘要

The braking unit (4) includes carrier plates (not shown) for brake linings. Each carrier plate is made of a softer material than the surface material of the brake ring (3) or brake disc. The carrier plate is made of plastic laminate, glass fiber reinforced plastic resin and/or a non-ferrous metal e.g. brass. The brake lining is held in depressions in the carrier plate. Screws or rivets may be used. It is alternatively bonded to the carrier plate by casting-on or adhesion.
