An electro-mechanical brake and a vehicle including the same are provided. As an electro-mechanical brake according to one embodiment of the present invention, an electro-mechanical brake including a drum, a first brake shoe, and a second brake shoe, may include a motor that provides a rotational driving force; a rotating member that rotates about a second rotating shaft perpendicular to a first rotating shaft of the motor; a power transmission member that transmits the rotational driving force of the motor to the rotating member; and a rotating screw that is coupled to the rotating member so that the first brake shoe is able to move forward and backward toward one inner peripheral surface of the drum.

The abutment of a drum brake is formed from a solid material which deforms under load, wherein measurement devices are provided which detect this deformation. The abutment has two limbs, on which the brake shoes are supported. The changing distance between the two brake shoes under load is determined by detecting the distance between extension rods on the limbs by a measurement device comprising magnets and Hall sensors or AMR sensors.

A spindle sleeve and washer for adjusting the camber, toe, or thrust angle of a vehicle wheel to a desired predetermined angle which allows for use of existing hub and spindle assembly without permanent modification to the vehicle.

A farm implement is provided having a frame and first and second track assemblies. The first track assembly has a first track frame, a first idler wheel, and a first brake assembly. The first idler wheel has an inboard side facing toward and an outboard side facing away from a center the first track frame. The first brake assembly has a first disc coupled to the first idler wheel on the outboard side of the first idler wheel, a first caliper couplable to first and second sides of the first disc, and a first torque arm coupled to the first track frame and a spindle of the first idler wheel. The first caliper is mounted on the first torque arm, and is configured to clamp down on the first and second sides of the first disc in order to slow and/or stop rotation of the first idler wheel.

A device for adjusting clearance of a drum brake has an extendable strut assembly having a toothed ring and arranged between first and second shoes cooperating with a braking surface of a drum and moved by an actuating device from a resting position, in which they are distanced from the braking surface, to a braking position, in which they abut against the braking surface. The device has a first lever assembly, a second lever assembly having a coupling portion, and a connecting member having a connecting seat. The coupling portion is coupled to the connecting seat with a predetermined functional clearance. When the first and second shoes move from the resting position, the coupling portion slides in the connecting seat with an idle stroke equal to the predetermined functional clearance without transmitting motion to the connecting member and the first lever assembly. The second lever assembly transmits motion to the connecting member after the coupling portion has covered the idle stroke.

An axle assembly having a brake drum and inboard and outboard wheels. The brake drum the inboard wheel may cooperate to inhibit movement of the inboard wheel in an inboard direction. An outboard wheel clamp and an outboard split ring may cooperate to inhibit movement of the outboard wheel in an outboard direction.

An internal drum brake anti-falling device includes a carrier having an accommodating chamber and main shaft crossingly arranged in the accommodating chamber for supporting a rotating drum to autorotate, wherein the rotating drum has a life belt coiled thereon, a brake unit arranged at an end thereof, and a drum brake module, which comprises a base, mounted in the accommodating chamber, and a passive ring, mounted on the base. An outer diameter of the base defines a first ring surface configured in a concentric circle manner to the main shaft. An inner diameter of the passive ring defines a second ring surface, wherein an externally toothed ratchet teeth is arranged in a concentric circle manner on the second ring surface to allow the second ring surface and the first ring surface to be disposed opposite to and closely fitting to each other so as to allow the first ring surface and the second ring surface to sequentially generate maximum static friction force and kinetic friction force therebetween when the life belt drives the brake unit buckling with the ratchet teeth, so as to buffer the rotating drum and the life belt.

A drum brake for a motor vehicle has a pocket for collecting abraded brake particles. The pocket is accessible from above via an opening. After the introduction of a suction device into the opening, the abraded brake particles can be extracted by suction. Pollution of the environment with abraded brake particles is thereby avoided.
