Back disk brakes

The same as on a forward axis, disk brakes of a back axis are so-called brakes with cam supports.

In addition to the hydraulic drive of a foot brake disk brakes of back wheels can be put in action also cables of the emergency brake. By means of the lever to which the brake cable is attached, the brake piston nestles on a slip a pusher.

It is necessary to notice that brakes of back wheels in front-wheel and all-wheel drive models differ in type of hinged connection of a cable of the emergency brake, but for the rest it is about the same brakes.

Automatic adjustment

In cars automatic adjustment of disk brakes is structurally caused: in process of wear of a slip the brake piston simply leaves farther the case of a brake support and provides a constant prileganiye of slips to a brake disk. At the expense of the brake fluid flowing after it the gap is not formed.

Not so the situation is at a mechanical control the emergency brake: here the pusher of drafts of the emergency brake sometime will not get the piston which is far put forward outside if additional adjustment is not carried out. It "extends" a pusher depending on requirement.

Basis of adjustment is the carving on which the second detail unscrews in process of wear of slips forward – so press device becomes longer. Therefore when replacing slips the brake piston cannot be wrung out simply back, it needs to be screwed up on the adjusting mechanism.
