Chapter 16, Problem 16-1(choose chapter or problem)
The figure shows an internal rim-type brake having an inside rim diameter of 300 mm and a dimension R = 125 mm. The shoes have a face width of 40 mm and are both actuated by a force of 2.2 kN. The drum rotates clockwise. The mean coefficient of friction is 0.28.
(a) Find the maximum pressure and indicate the shoe on which it occurs.
(b) Estimate the braking torque effected by each shoe, and find the total braking torque.
(c) Estimate the resulting hinge-pin reactions.
