DEVICE FOR ELECTRICALLY BRAKING A DRIVE SHAFT

摘要

The electric braking device according to the present invention comprises a braking member (2) which consists on the one hand of electric jaws (7) and of at least one sliding shoe (8) which are mounted near the brake disc (3) so that the latter passes at least partially between the said electric jaws (7) and the sliding shoe (8) and, on the other hand, of fixing means (4) for fixing the electric jaws (7) and the sliding shoe (8) to the fixed chassis (6) giving the said jaws and the said shoe degrees of freedom which are obtained by the combination of various connections known as «flat-plane connection» AP, «point connection» LP and «annular linear connection» LA in order to compensate for misalignments and defects in the shape of the brake disc (3) while it is being rotationally driven.
