Friction Unit of a Disc Brake Based on a Combination of Friction Materials

Аннотация

The design of the disc brake friction unit is proposed, the basis for the creation of which is a combination of friction materials with different properties. As a criterion for the structural formation of a friction unit of a disc brake, it is proposed to use the initial equality of linear wear rates for all brake linings made of friction materials with different properties. It is shown that the use of a friction unit based on combined friction materials makes it possible to achieve new disc brake characteristics, compared to its traditional design. It is concluded that the proposed solution is promising.
