Brake device

A brake device for installation on an axle of wheels including a piston; a casing accommodating at least the piston; a container; a first cast iron disc and a second cast iron disc, joined to the container; a first brake lining; a first supporting disc on which the first brake lining is located; and a bearing fixed to the central cylindrical wall of the container around the axle. The container and the casing remain fixed without rotating about the axle and the first brake lining together with the first supporting disc are fixed to the axle. The piston is further configured to displace the container together with the two cast iron discs towards the first brake lining until the first cast iron disc makes contact with the first brake lining. The container includes an inner circuit configured to accommodate a coolant.

Systems and methods for reducing oxidation of friction disks

A system, and associated method, for reducing oxidation of a friction disk may include a braking assembly comprising the friction disk and a coolant loop coupled to the braking assembly, with the coolant loop being configured to circulate liquid coolant from the braking assembly. That is, the coolant loop may be configured to reduce the temperature of the braking assembly, thus reducing the rate/extent of oxidation of the friction disks and potentially enabling the concentration of oxygen around the braking assembly to be reduced.

A disc brake and a cooling controller, a control system and a control method, a brake disc of the disc brake includes a first basic plate and a second basic plate, jointed and forming a cavity. A fibrous body having a capillary structure is sandwiched between the first basic plate and the second basic plate, the fibrous body filling between the first basic plate and the second plate, and the fibrous body being formed in a ring shape and sleeves on an axle to receive cooling water from the axle and distribute the cooling water on inner walls of the first basic plate and the second basic plate. The cooling water is evenly distributed to prevent brake disc from fading under heat, and based on the disc brake, an additional automatic controlled cooling control system is provided to accurately control the amount of the cooling water, thereby saving water.
