Operating at least one multi-disc brake using single Bowden control cable - using respectively one brake lever arranged at one braking cylinder and other braking lever arranged at piston of other braking cylinder with each cylinder as fixed point

摘要

One brake unit-consisting of two brake groups and a casing piece (19)-has a Bowden control unit (20) fixed at the fixed point (18) or at the operating lever (21) of the first group. The cable (24) of the same Bowden unit (20) is fixed at the operating lever (22) of this group. The other end of the casing piece is arranged at the fixed point (17) connected to the cylinder (15) of the second brake group or at the operating lever (23). The cable (24) of the Bowden unit is led from the operating lever (22) of the first group at least to the operating point (26). The casing piece (19) lies between the fixed point (18) of the first brake group and the fixed point (17) of the second group. The casing is so much longer that, when operated, it is not stretched. A rack drive or a servo motor adjusts the casing length. ADVANTAGE - Single Bowden cable control can be used for two brake groups. No expensive brake rods required. Bowden cable travels easy round corners and bends.
