An electro-mechanical drum brake is disclosed. An electro-mechanical drum brake according to one aspect of the present disclosure may include a back plate, a drum disposed on one side of the back plate, a first brake shoe and a second brake shoe rotatably coupled on one surface of the back plate, a pressing member configured to press one sides of the first brake shoe and the second brake shoe so that the first brake shoe and the second brake shoe advance toward or retreat from an inner circumferential surface of the drum, an actuator configured to provide a driving force so that the pressing member presses the first and second brake shoes, and a sensor positioned between the other sides of the first and second brake shoes and formed to measure loads of the first and second brake shoes applied in a first direction tangent to a rotational radius of the drum.

A brake includes a brake shoe moveable between an engaged position and a disengaged position and defining an axis of rotation of an associated brake drum. The brake includes an actuation shaft rotatable about a shaft axis and an actuation device for transferring rotational movement of the actuation shaft into movement of the brake shoe from the disengaged position to the engaged position. The axis of rotation is non-parallel to the shaft axis.

An axle of an industrial vehicle, in which a parking brake can be maintained easily. The parking brake is arranged adjacent to a power transmission device outside an axle housing. The parking brake includes a brake housing, a brake shaft supported rotatably around the axis of the brake housing, a brake gear attached to the brake shaft and meshed with a transmission gear, first brake plates attached to the brake shaft, second brake plates attached to the brake housing and alternately arranged with the first brake plates, and a brake piston arranged so as to move toward and away from the plates and in the brake housing for bringing the plates into pressure contact with each other.

A reduction motor for a parking brake mechanical actuator of a drum brake comprising an electric motor and a reduction gearbox, in which the electric motor comprises an output shaft extending along a first axis, the reduction gearbox comprises an output shaft extending along a second axis, and in which the reduction motor also comprises at least one angle gear between the electric motor and the reduction gearbox or at the output of the reduction gearbox, the angle gear comprising a crown gear-pair comprising a pinion and a crown gear, the pinion being engaged with the output shaft of the electric motor and meshing with the crown gear which is a part of the reduction gearbox.

A braking arrangement includes a brake liner, a backing plate and an attachment member for interconnecting the brake liner to the backing plate, wherein the brake liner includes a recess in a surface facing the backing plate, wherein the backing plate includes a through hole associated to the recess of the brake liner; wherein the attachment member includes a first portion engaging the recess of the brake liner, wherein the attachment member further includes a second portion extending from the first portion of the attachment member and forming a one-piece unit with the first portion, and in that the second portion extends into the through hole of the backing plate and engages with the backing plate. An attachment member and a method for interconnecting a brake liner to a backing plate by an attachment member are also provided.
