DISC BRAKE ASSEMBLY

摘要

In a disc brake assembly (20), a brake disc (18) has a hat-shaped section (56) which is tapered frusto-conically, and a viscoelastic damping material (82) is interposed between a conical surface (76) of the tapered hat-shaped section and a correspondingly conically tapered outer peripheral surface (78) of a mounting flange (14) for the brake disc. The damping material may comprise rubber-coated steel shim stock.
