    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.

  3. Brake fade - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake_fade

    The "gaseous boundary layer" is a hot rod mechanics explanation for failing self servo effect of drum brakes because it felt like a brick under the brake pedal when it occurred. To counter this effect, brake shoes were drilled and slotted to vent gas. In spite of that, drum brakes were abandoned for their self-servo effect.

  4. Motorcycle braking systems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motorcycle_braking_systems

    Honda RCB with a front ventilated drum brake from Italian accessories manufacturer Grimeca. Drum brakes have a self servo effect. [11] The most common design is a leading-trailing design. More exotic design had four, eight or sixteen shoes. [4] Some motorcycles used finned and/or vented housings for additional cooling, the first of which was ...

  5. Bendix Corporation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bendix_Corporation

    In the 1960s, Bendix automotive brakes blossomed with the introduction of fixed-caliper disc brakes and the "Duo-Servo" system (which became, virtually, a de facto world standard for drum brakes). During the 1960s, Bendix also dabbled in bicycle hardware, producing a reliable, totally self-contained, 2-speed "Kick-Back" planetary rear axle with ...

  6. Power brakes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_brakes

    When the driver pushes the brake pedal with his/her foot, the pistons inside the cylinder will activate. The activation of this piston will allow two brake shoes located within the drum of the brake to expand, thus generating friction to slow down and stop the wheel. Usually, this brake is located in the rear wheels of the vehicle, while the ...

  7. SORA self-propelled howitzer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SORA_self-propelled_howitzer

    The pneumatic braking system has drum brakes on all wheels. The steering is hydraulic with servo assistance. The frame has two longitudinal and several transversal brackets, while the cab is a trambus type. Both inter-axial and all three axial differentials can be locked mechanically. The vehicle has a system of central pressure control in tires.

  8. 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.

  9. Disc brake - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disc_brake

    Most drum brake designs have at least one leading shoe, which gives a servo-effect. By contrast, a disc brake has no self-servo effect, and its braking force is always proportional to the pressure placed on the brake pad by the braking system via any brake servo, brake pedal, or lever.
