Abstract

979,219. Vehicle brakes. GIRLING Ltd. Oct. 10, 1963 [Oct. 16, 1962], No. 39045/62. Heading F2E. In a rail vehicle brake of the kind in which friction pads engaging opposite side of a disc are carried by caliper levers pivoted to a yoke, a mechanical slack adjuster, located in the transmission means between a power actuator and an actuated caliper lever, is controlled by a rod connected to the other caliper lever. One caliper lever 11 actuated from a fluid pressure actuator 17 by linkage 18, 21, 25 and 24 has a telescopic mechanical adjuster 26 disposed between members 24 and 25. A rod 27 connected to the pin 12 of caliper lever 10 carries an adjustable abutment 29 encircling member 25, the abutment being engaged by the adjuster to change the effective length of the pull rod 24, 25 when the axial movement of the pull rod exceeds an amount 32, to adjust the clearance between pads and disc in the position of the brake.
