To provide a braking device that achieves unidirectionality without limiting the direction of rotation of a rotor. The present invention is characterized by being equipped with a housing (10), a rotor (20) provided inside the housing (10), brake shoes (30) provided between the rotor (20) and the housing (10), first protruding parts (40) that move together with the brake shoes (30), and second protruding parts (50) that move in conjunction with the rotation of the rotor (20), with the first protruding parts (40) riding up on the second protruding parts only when the rotor (20) rotates in the normal direction, and thereby generating greater friction between the brake shoes (30) and the housing (10) than the friction that can be generated between the brake shoes (30) and the housing (10) when the rotor (20) rotates in the reverse direction.

An axle/suspension system tower mount for a heavy-duty vehicle which mounts a force reacting suspension component attached to the vehicle frame members to the axle of the axle/suspension system. The tower mount includes an axle wrap system which attaches the tower mount to the axle of the axle/suspension system at a location inboard of the axle/suspension system suspension assemblies. The axle/suspension system tower mount provides mounting support for components of an air brake system, including cam shaft assemblies, brake air chambers, and mounting brackets thereof.

A door operator comprises a rotary shaft, a chain disk for rotating the rotary shaft, and a locking mechanism for locking the rotary shaft. The locking mechanism comprises a bidirectional rotary block, a plurality of push pins and anti-rotation posts. When the chain disk rotates, the push pins urge the bidirectional rotary block to rotate the rotary shaft, and when the rotary shaft rotates, the of anti-rotation posts lock the bidirectional rotary block, and preclude the rotary shaft from rotating.
