A brake device relates to vehicle production and can be used in a mechanical brake system. The brake device is designed to prevent emission of harmful substances into the atmosphere/environment due to sliding friction. The brake device for slowing vehicle movement comprises a brake disk which is affixed to a wheel axle, and a housing with transverse guides which is affixed to a support hub, at least one slide and braking element being installed on the transverse guides so as to interact with the brake disk. The braking element is designed as a roller bearing enclosing the brake disk, with radially oriented resilient elements affixed to the brake disk, the other ends of the elastic elements adjoining an inner surface of an inner ring of the aforementioned roller bearing with a running clearance or without a clearance.

The invention relates to a conveyor device with at least one first and second conveyor carriage which are arranged one behind the other in the conveyor direction (F), a cross belt conveyor which is formed on at least the second conveyor carriage for conveying material to be conveyed in a cross conveyor direction (Q) oriented substantially transversely to the conveyor direction (F), and a powertrain brake for the cross belt conveyor. An operating device is arranged on the first conveyor carriage and a brake device is arranged on the second conveyor carriage. The brake device assumes the release state when the first and second conveyor carriage are traveling in a substantially straight manner, and the brake device assumes the brake state when at least one of the conveyor carriages is cornering in order to allow a movement of a cross belt of the cross belt conveyor in a cross conveyor direction (Q) when traveling in a straight manner and brake the movement when cornering.

A footwear system can employ a brake and/or a clutch, such as a one-way clutch, to convert human motion into usable electricity. The brake and one-way clutch can be used together, such as on opposite ends of a spring. During a storage phase, the brake can be engaged and the one-way clutch disengaged so the spring stores an energy. After the storage phase, the brake can be removed to initiate the release phase since the brake is not stopping the spring, but the one-way clutch allows the stored energy to be released.

A braking system for a vehicle that includes at least one vehicle wheel and a friction brake associated with the vehicle wheel. The friction brake acts during an operation state of the vehicle and/or while the vehicle is in a parked state. The braking system includes an additional mechanical locking device for the vehicle wheel. The mechanical locking device secures the vehicle wheel in a form-fitting manner when the vehicle is in the parked state to prevent the vehicle wheel from rolling.

An omni-wheel may include a shaft, a plurality of rollers, and a braking device. The plurality of rollers may be circumferentially arranged about the shaft and arranged radially outward from the shaft. The braking device may include an at least one flexible clutch member, an at least one brake pad, and an actuator. The at least one flexible clutch member may have an outer diameter arranged about the shaft. The at least one brake pad may be arranged on the outer diameter of the at least one flexible clutch member. The actuator may be arranged to axially displace the at least one flexible clutch member. The at least one flexible clutch member may expand radially outward when axially displaced by the actuator, which may displace the at least one brake pad arranged on the outer diameter of the at least one flexible clutch member radially outward to contact at least one of the plurality of rollers, preventing rotation of the roller.

A wheel-at-rest automatic brake system including a base, a cam, two reset brackets and an interlocking gear is installed in a wheel hub and connected to a wheel shaft of the wheel hub. The base is installed in the wheel hub and has multiple mounting holes and three first pivot holes; the cam is hinged to the first pivot hole and has a protrusion and two driving portions; the two reset brackets are pivoted to the remaining two first pivot holes; each driving portion has a limit notch; the interlocking gear is fixed to the wheel shaft and engaged to the protrusion; and the two driving portions are situated in the two limit notches to define a locked state. When moving, the interlocking gear drives the protrusion to deflect, and the two driving portions prop the two reset brackets up to define a released state.
