  2. Bicycle brake - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicycle_brake

    A return spring slackens the cable when the brake lever is released, no adjustment is required, and the brake becomes more forceful when wet. Husted said his inspiration was the band brake used on industrial machinery. [50] The Yankee bicycle only included a rear brake, but that met U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission standards.

  3. Sudden unintended acceleration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sudden_unintended_acceleration

    In the lab tests, throttles were positioned to wide open prior to brake application in an attempt to replicate the circumstances of the incidents under study. However, the newest vehicle involved in the study was a 1986 model and no test vehicles were equipped with the electronic control ( drive by wire ) systems common in 2010.

  4. Brake pad - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake_pad

    Unlike a drum brake, a disc brake has no self-servo effect—the braking force is always proportional to the pressure applied on the braking pedal lever. However many disc brake systems have servo assistance ("Brake Booster") to reduce the driver's pedal effort. [citation needed]

  5. Drum brake - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drum_brake

    Drum brake (upper right) with the drum removed (lower left, inside facing up), on the front of a Ford Falcon Sprint A rear drum brake on a Kawasaki W800 motorcycle. A drum brake is a brake that uses friction caused by a set of shoes or pads that press outward against a rotating bowl-shaped part called a brake drum.

  7. Brake fade - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake_fade

    In contrast, for a brake without self-assist, such as a conventional disc brake, a loss of pad friction material does not change the pad force, so there is no necessary loss in the brake torque reaction for a given amount of input force. The self-assist mechanism affects the water pump and the amount of fade.
