Braking system for the undercarriage of an aircraft

A braking system for an aircraft (2) provided with undercarriage (7), wherein an axial-flux reversible electric machine (20) is set between the wheel (10) and the frame (8) of the undercarriage; current-dissipating resistors (30a, 30b, 30c) are provided, which can be connected (28a, 28b, 28c) to the...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A braking system for an aircraft (2) provided with undercarriage (7), wherein an axial-flux reversible electric machine (20) is set between the wheel (10) and the frame (8) of the undercarriage; current-dissipating resistors (30a, 30b, 30c) are provided, which can be connected (28a, 28b, 28c) to the windings (26a, 26b, 26c) of the axial-flux reversible electric machine (20) during rotation of said wheel (10) for dissipating by the Joule effect (30a, 30b, 30c) the induced currents generated by the axial-flux electric machine (20), which behaves as current generator (20), and producing a braking effect that slows down the movement of the wheel (10), thus exerting a braking action.
