BRAKE APPARATUS

摘要

A friction brake disc assembly having a plurality of axially aligned annular shaped rotor discs splined for axial movement interleaved with annular stator discs which are splined for axial movement along a mating key member or members that are fixedly secured to a torque tube. The discs have a plurality of circumferentially spaced slots along the periphery, with inserts therein to transfer the load to the discs. The inserts have structural portions thereof extending along the outer annular surface of the discs for engagement by clips to retain the inserts within the slots. The clips are secured to spaced locations along the periphery of the discs to minimize the concentrations of any load transferred from the inserts to the discs.
