In order to provide a brake disc unit the production and assembly of which is economically viable even with extreme mechanical and thermal load capacity, preferably without the application of intermediate elements, the disclosure proposes a brake disc unit with a friction ring and a friction ring carrier which are connected by means of a shaft-to-hub connection with an alignment gearing having a multitude of dogs, wherein the cross-section of the dogs provides a contour which, at least partly, runs along an extended trochoid.

For providing a shaft-hub connection which doesn't require additional transmission elements or intermediate elements, assures a better position of the load transfer angle and can be manufactured economically with the required quality and precision, the disclosure proposes a shaft-hub connection having an alignment gearing with a plurality of dogs, wherein the dogs comprise a contour in cross section, which runs, at least partially, along a prolonged trochoid.

A heat shield assembly is disclosed. In various embodiments, the heat shield assembly defines a first circumferential side and a second circumferential side and an inboard end and an outboard end and includes a first layer defining a first surface of the heat shield assembly and having a first tab member disposed proximate the inboard end at the first circumferential side and a second tab member disposed proximate the outboard end at the first circumferential side; and a second layer defining a second surface of the heat shield assembly and having one or more first crimped portions extending along the first circumferential side and configured to engage the first tab member and the second tab member.

A disc brake disc with a parking brake cylindrical surface for cooperating with shoes of a parking brake comprises a braking band comprising opposite braking surfaces and a geometric connection portion of band connecting the braking band to a bell; the bell comprising a connection plate with a wheel hub and an annular geometric connection portion of bell for geometric connection of the bell to the geometric connection portion of band; the braking band and the bell being pieces separate from each other and geometrically coupled to each other by geometric connection portions of band and bell so as to transfer a braking action by a brake caliper on the opposite braking surfaces from the braking band to the bell and to the wheel hub; the bell comprising a geometric bell connection surface opposite to said braking band. The disc brake disc further comprises a parking ring comprising radially and internally an inner portion of ring, and radially and externally a geometric ring connection portion.

A bicycle brake disc having a braking track with brake pads and a plurality of first connection portions that extend towards the inside and that comprise respective first connection areas; a second component having (i) a radially inner annular coupling portion for coupling with a hub of a wheel of the bicycle and (ii) a plurality of second connection portions. The second connection portions extending outwards from the radially inner annular coupling portion towards the first component and comprising respective second connection areas; connecting members active between the first connection areas and the corresponding second connection areas. The second connection portions comprise at least one respective pair of arms that extend between the respective second connection area and the radially inner annular coupling portion, the pair of arms defining a through opening between them.

A brake disc having a friction ring and a hub produced as a separate element and arranged inside the friction ring according. Recesses are configured in the friction ring on the inside to connect the hub to the friction ring and corresponding projections are formed on the hub, which projections engage in the recesses of the friction ring in order to be able to transfer torque from the friction ring to the hub. The recesses have an undercut at least partially in a radial direction, as viewed looking inward from the outside. The disc is simple and cost-effective to manufacture and has an acoustically advantageous operating performance, in particular in the case of thermal expansion.

A wheel hub includes an outer collar region, as seen in the radial direction, and an inner core region, as seen in the radial direction, wherein, as seen in the axial direction, the inner core region is thicker than the outer collar region, and wherein, in the inner core region, the wheel hub has a substantially axially running primary recess for the connection of a brake disk.

An assembly to secure a disc brake rotor to a wheel hub utilizing spring pins and a retaining ring is provided. A partial keyway is formed in the rotor, and a partial keyway is formed in the wheel hub. The rotor is fitted over an inwardly extending section of the hub, with the partial keyways in the rotor and in the wheel hub being aligned to form complete keyways. The spring pins are then press fit into the completed keyways. Finally, a retaining ring is installed into a slot formed in the inwardly extending section of the wheel hub to complete the assembly of the disc brake rotor assembly.

A brake module for a drive system, in particular for doors, including at least one thrust washer and at least one brake disc, wherein the at least one thrust washer and the at least one brake disc each have at least one friction surface rubbing against each other during braking operation is provided. The embodiments also relate to a drive system, in particular for doors, including such a brake module. The embodiments further relate to a production method for a brake module of the abovementioned type. Known brake modules have a high variation in the braking force on the one hand in the course of their service life and on the other hand as a function of the temperature.
