2. Electromagnetic clutches and brakes - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_clutches...

   The theory is, for the coil to generate as much of a magnetic field as quickly as possible to attract the armature and start the process of acceleration or deceleration. Once the over excitation is no longer required the power supply to the clutch or brake would return to its normal operating voltage.

3. Master cylinder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Master_cylinder

   The most common vehicle uses of master cylinders are in brake and clutch systems.. In brake systems, the operated devices are cylinders inside brake calipers and/or drum brakes; these cylinders may be called wheel cylinders or slave cylinders, and they push the brake pads towards a surface that rotates with the wheel (this surface is typically either a drum or a disc, a.k.a. a rotor) until the ...

4. Air brake (road vehicle) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_brake_(road_vehicle)

   A compressed-air-brake system is divided into a supply system and a control system. The supply system compresses, stores and supplies high-pressure air to the control system as well as to additional air operated auxiliary truck systems (gearbox shift control, clutch pedal air assistance servo, etc.).

5. Eddy current brake - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eddy_current_brake

   Disk electromagnetic brakes are used on vehicles such as trains, and power tools such as circular saws, to stop the blade quickly when the power is turned off.A disk eddy current brake consists of a conductive non-ferromagnetic metal disc attached to the axle of the vehicle's wheel, with an electromagnet located with its poles on each side of the disk, so the magnetic field passes through the ...

6. Brake - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake

   Foundation components are the brake-assembly components at the wheels of a vehicle, named for forming the basis of the rest of the brake system. These mechanical parts contained around the wheels are controlled by the air brake system. The three types of foundation brake systems are “S” cam brakes, disc brakes and wedge brakes. [3]

7. Direct-shift gearbox - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct-shift_gearbox

   The transmission's outer clutch K2 engages at the start of the bite point, while on the alternate gear shaft the reverse gear clutch K1 is also selected. [2] [3] The clutch pack for second gear (K2) gets ready to engage. When the driver releases the brake pedal, the K2 clutch clamping force is increased, allowing the transmission to drive the ...
