The mechanical wet disc brakes are used for right and left travelling brakes. They are operated by the brake pedal
(12) through the mechanical linkages and provide stable braking and require little adjustment.
The brake body is incorporated in the transmission case (2) and axle cover (9) filled with transmission oil.
For greater braking force, four brake discs (11) are provided at the right and left sides respectively, and the friction
plates (6) fixed to the transmission case (2) and axle cover (9) are arranged between the brake discs (11).
Travelling Brake
When the brake pedal (12) is depressed, the linkage causes the brake cam levers (1), (10) to turn into the direction
of arrow shown in the above figure.
Therefore, the cam plates also moves and rides on the steel balls set in the grooves of the transmission case (2)
and axle cover (9) to press the brake disc, the rear axle (3), (8) are braked by the frictional force generated by the cam
plate and brake disc.
Parking Brake
When the parking brake is applied, the brake pedal (12) locked by the parking brake lock pedal (13) to actuate the
brake mechanism same as a travelling brake.
