2. Overrun brake - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overrun_brake

   An overrun brake (called a surge brake when invented) is a brake system commonly used on small trailers, where the motion of the trailer with respect to the towing vehicle is used to actuate the brake. The early systems were fitted with a spring system which was not very effective.

3. Trailer brake controller - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trailer_brake_controller

   Surge brake When the tow vehicle slows down the trailer pushes against it, an actuator applies force to its master cylinder and the hydraulic pressure is transferred to the brakes [10] Time-delayed brake controller Applies brake current with a ramp-up over time to a certain level set by the driver. [8] [9] [11]

4. 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.

   The Foundation Brake product line includes brake products for wheel ends such as disc brakes, brake adjusters for drum brakes and actuators. Air Controls comprises products that improve the safety and driving dynamics of the brake system, such as compressed air dryers, valves, ABS and EBS.

6. S-cam - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S-cam

   As the S-cam rotates, the two symmetrical brake pads are forced against the brake drum until the pressure is released and the brake pads return to their resting position. [ 3 ] The principle of the S-cam allows the brakes of big vehicles to be more compact and less moving parts, since it only relies on a rotating shaft.

7. Electric friction brake - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_friction_brake

   This describes the electrically controlled drum brake principles. The brake is built with the brake shield (1) as a base that contains the mechanism. The brake shield is mounted on an axle/spindle using the holes in the centre. The brake shoes (3) are the items performing the braking by pressing outwards at the drum that covers all the innards.
