  2. 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 ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cessna_150

    The Cessna 150 is a two-seat tricycle gear general aviation airplane that was designed for flight training, touring and personal use. [2] In 1977, it was succeeded in production by the Cessna 152, a minor modification to the original design. The Cessna 150 is the fifth most produced aircraft ever, with 23,839 produced. [3]

    Wheel cylinder assembly Wheel cylinder child parts. A wheel cylinder is a component of a hydraulic drum brake system. [1] It is located in each wheel and is usually positioned at the top of the wheel, above the shoes. Its function is to exert force onto the shoes so as to bring them into contact with the drum and stop the vehicle with friction. [2]

    The C90 was introduced in 1947 as a follow-on to the A65, which had been in production since 1939. [7] [8] Many of the designs powered by the C90 are upgraded variants of earlier A65 powered designs, such as the Piper J-3 Cub and PA-11 Cub Special, [9] Aeronca 7AC, [3] and Luscombe 8A. [10] The engine was developed from the earlier O-190 by increasing the stroke 1 ⁄ 4 inch.

  6. Tricycle landing gear - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tricycle_landing_gear

    Student pilots are able to safely master nosewheel equipped aircraft more quickly. [2] Tricycle gear aircraft are easier to land because the attitude required to land on the main gear is the same as that required in the flare, and they are less vulnerable to crosswinds. As a result, the majority of modern aircraft are fitted with tricycle gear.

    The Lycoming O-235 is a family of four-cylinder, air-cooled, horizontally opposed, piston aircraft engines that produce 100 to 135 hp (75 to 101 kW), derived from the earlier O-233 engine. [ 1 ] [ 2 ]

  9. Hydraulic brake - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_brake

    A larger diameter master cylinder delivers more hydraulic fluid to the caliper pistons, yet requires more brake pedal force and less brake pedal stroke to achieve a given deceleration. A smaller diameter master cylinder has the opposite effect. A master cylinder may also use differing diameters between the two sections to allow for increased ...
