Adjustment structure of hydraulic brake system
An adjustment structure of a hydraulic brake system is provided, which includes a main body, a piston and an adjusting device. The main body includes at least one fluid reservoir, an inner chamber and at least one fluid passage. The inner chamber includes a cylinder channel and an opening part, and the cylinder channel is communicated with the fluid reservoir by at least one fluid port. The piston is driven by the brake cable to be limitedly moved in the cylinder channel. The piston includes a cable hole for receiving the brake cable, and the piston has a normal operated position relative to the fluid port. The adjusting device is disposed in the opening part and is abutted against the piston. The adjusting device is operated to be moved relative to the brake cable such that the piston is adjusted to be returned to the normal operated position.
One-way and two-way brake auto-adjusters
A brake assembly has an auto-adjustment mechanism including an adjusting link that is rotatable to adjust an unloaded state position of a brake shoe, and an adjusting lever that operates to rotate the adjusting link during a release of the braking assembly to adjust the unloaded state position of the brake shoe. The auto-adjustment mechanism includes a pivot point mounted on a brake back plate about which the adjusting lever rotates, and an adjusting spring attached to the adjusting lever. The adjusting lever rotates in a first direction against the spring force when the brake assembly is actuated, and the adjusting spring by operation of the spring force rotates the adjusting lever in a second direction when the brake assembly is released. During the brake release, as the adjusting lever rotates back the adjusting lever catches the adjusting link in a ratchet fashion to rotate the adjusting link to adjust the unloaded state position of the brake shoes.
POSITIONING ASSEMBLY AND BRAKE PISTON ASSEMBLY
The present disclosure further relates to a positioning assembly, such as for positioning a brake piston. The positioning assembly comprises a support member extending along an axis, a first compression-loaded member, and a second compression-loaded member, wherein the first compression-loaded member and the second compression-loaded member are axially supported on or configured to be axially supported on the support member. The present disclosure further relates to a brake piston assembly including said positioning assembly.

SPREADER UNIT FOR A DRUM BRAKE, COMPRISING WEAR TRAVEL ADJUSTMENT, AND THE DRUM BRAKE
An improved electromechanically drivable spreader unit having an integrated adjustment apparatus for a drum brake, in which the linear motion of brake shoe holders is produced by two ball-ramp devices, wherein a first ball-ramp device includes a first actuation piston arranged for rotation about the axis and a second ball-ramp device includes a second actuation piston arranged for rotation about the axis, and wherein an adjustment apparatus for compensating an actuation travel that increases as a result of wear on the friction linings is arranged in an axially centered position within the housing and substantially between the actuation pistons.
Cable operated disc brakes for vehicles
A disc brake that can be operated via cable, for reliable use such as emergency brakes.
BRAKE ACTUATOR
A brake actuator for an aircraft braking system, comprising a housing, a sleeve, an annular member mounted to the housing extending radially inwardly for engagement with the ratchet teeth of the sleeve, a piston slidable along an axis (X), a piston head disposed at a first end of the pin portion, a cap disposed at a second end of the pin portion for operative engagement with a brake element of the housing, and a second position in which the piston head is drivingly disengaged from the sleeve.
