Automatic Slack Adjuster Torque Limiting Link

View page
US Patent:
20220186801, Jun 16, 2022
Filed:
Dec 11, 2020
Appl. No.:
17/119643
Inventors:
- Elyria OH, US
Erik W. OBERDORFER - Akron OH, US
International Classification:
F16D 65/54
Abstract:
A self-adjusting automatic slack adjuster for reducing slack in the brake of a vehicle includes an adjuster link having a resilient portion. When a brake application force being applied to the slack adjuster exceeds a level that could result in brake application linkage damage as a result of the slack adjuster's slack adjustment mechanism having reached a travel limit, the resilient portion of the adjuster link permits the axial length of the adjuster link to change to accommodate the high brake application force in order to minimize or preclude damage to the brake application linkage.

Slack Adjuster For A Drum Brake Of A Vehicle Air Braking System

US Patent:
20190301553, Oct 3, 2019
Filed:
Jun 20, 2019
Appl. No.:
16/446698
Inventors:
- Elyria OH, US
Erik W. Oberdorfer - Akron OH, US
International Classification:
F16D 65/58
F16D 51/18
F16D 65/60
Abstract:
A slack adjuster is provided for a drum brake of a vehicle air braking system. The slack adjuster comprises a gear set including (i) a worm wheel having an outer circumferential surface, and (ii) a worm shaft having a longitudinal central axis and meshed with the worm wheel. The worm shaft is rotated in one direction about its longitudinal central axis when the drum brake is applied and adjustment is required and in an opposite direction about its longitudinal central axis when the drum brake is released. The slack adjuster further comprises an anti-reversing member having an inner circumferential surface facing the outer circumferential surface of the worm wheel. The anti-reversing member allows rotation of the worm wheel when the drum brake is applied and prevents rotation of the worm wheel when the drum brake is released.
