Safety locking device for electromechanical equipment and aircraft wheel brake provided with such a device

摘要

A selector (25) is rotatably connected to the mutually opposing friction elements such friction linings (22,24) on a disc (21) and lining holder (23) respectively, and is actuated to specific angular position. The friction elements are pressed against each other and are maintained in separate position from each other, respectively in locking and releasing positions, corresponding to the angular positions of the selector. An electromagnetically (29) actuated pusher (26) moves the selector switch the friction elements between their locked and released positions. The selector is maintained in the angular position by a return spring (30). An Independent claim is also included for an electromechanical brake for an aircraft wheel equipped with the safety locking device.
