Disc brakes offer higher performance braking, simpler design, lighter weight, and better resistance to water interference than drum brakes. The aim of this conceptual design was to increase the strength of the caliper, without increasing the weight of the caliper by a large amount and reducing the thermal deformation at high operating temperatures. Since titanium is difficult to machine the mono block design of conventional machined caliper was not used in this work but an attempt was made to built a brake caliper with different parts and assembled together to make a single unit. Also titanium parts used were machined from plates with no complicated shapes to save on machining costs in future. Since titanium has higher mass density care was taken while designing the new brake system to keep the weight increase to minimum. The existing brake caliper was analyzed for given load conditions with new material suggested. The results were studied for displacements and stresses along with thermal effects. The new modular caliper was analyzed for pressure and tangential loads and the results were studied for displacements/deformation and stresses with temperature effects. v TABLE OF CONTENTS Chapter Page 1.

A brake is a mechanical device that inhibits motion. A drum brake is a brake that uses friction caused by a set of shoes or pads that press against a rotating drum-shaped part called a brake drum. In this paper, we have studied the brake shoe of motor vehicles. A brake shoe is the part of a braking system which carries the brake lining in the drum brakes used on automobile or brake block in train brakes and bicycle brakes. A brake shoe is also known as a device which can be slow down railroad cars.

Introduction We know about the braking system, there are few types of brakes like a drum brake, disc brake. The drum brake consists of backing plates, brake drum, wheel cylinder, brake pads, brake shoe, etc. The drum brake is used in various motor vehicles like passenger cars, lightweight trucks, most of the two-wheelers.

  • Drum Brakes Inspection & Service
    Drum Brakes Inspection & Service First you must get the drum off! • Some slide right off, • Some have to be hit with a hammer. • Some have holes to install two bolts (Tighten each bolt equally) Remove A Brake Drum Use penetrant around axle hub May need to hammer floating drum Wet down inside of drum to control dust before hammering Only hammer on the axle flange! (ask to be shown) May need to adjust brake shoes inward Remove A Brake Drum For a fixed brake drum you will need to carefully adjust the wheel bearings when done! There are many tricks to removing stuck brake drums. Before you break something ASK! Understand each piece and avoid mistakes Terminology Anchor Wheel Cylinder Brake Shoes Primary Secondary Return Springs Shoe hold downs Terminology Parking Brake Strut Parking Brake Cable Self Adjusters Backing Plate (often neglected) Backing Plates Backing plates are often overlooked and usually have grooved & worn shoe support pads Be sure to thoroughly clean backing plate and lightly lube the support pads • contact points on backing plate are called a shoe pad. They should be filed flat to prevent shoes from hanging up in deep grooves or better yet just replace the backing plate. Always lube Shoe Support Tabs with a thin layer of Synthetic Disc Brake Lubricant (or suitable lube) Be careful… do not use too much. Grease on brake shoes is BIG TROUBLE! Dual-Servo or Leading-Trailing • Drum brakes on Rear Wheel drive are most often Dual Servo. • They have a Primary and Secondary brake shoe • The Primary shoe friction material is shorter and it faces the front of the vehicle Dual Servo braking action Both brake shoes will pivot Primary shoe will wedge the secondary out into the drum Primary and secondary shoe will fit backwards, but not properly work Which is the primary shoe? Where is the front of this vehicle? Dual-Servo or Leading-Trailing • Drum brakes on Front Wheel drive are most often Leading-Trailing.

  • Introduction No. Description Installation the Arai™ Drum Brake
    For QBP part numbers BR5003 and BR5001 Introduction The Arai™ Drum brake is designed to be used with a rear tandem hub or any hub with right handed threading on the left side. The composite brake shoes and finned aluminum drum create a positive braking surface and rapid heat dispersion, making it ideal for mountainous terrain and all weather conditions. The Arai™ Drum brake can be used with either road or mountain brake levers and cables (not included). No. Description 1) Drum (BR5006) 2-3) Brake Shoe Assembly (BR5007) #2 & 3 4) Actuator lever (BR5005) 5) Cable Anchor Bolt 6) Barrel Adjuster Assembly 7) Chainstay Clamp Assembly 8) Guts Installation The Arai™ Drum Brake should be installed by a professional bicycle mechanic. 1. Remove inside and outside locknut from left side of hub. 2. Using hub spacers, create 12 to 15 mm of spacing between the edge of the hub and the outer edge of the spacing. See Diagram 2 above. 3. Lightly grease hub threads and spin on the drum (#1). The drum has right hand threading. Hand tighten. The drum will tighten with use. 4. Slip on the guts (#8). If axle does not fit through the brake arm plate (#3), carefully drill out the hole to a larger diameter. BR5001 is drilled for a 10.0 mm axle. BR5003 is drilled for a 9.5mm axle. 5. Add spacers and inside locknut until locknut-to-locknut dimension matches original dimensions. Note the brake arm plate is 2 mm thick. You may have to reduce the number of spacers accordingly.
