Aircraft brake actuator thermal insulator and tangential movement compensator

An aircraft brake actuation system includes an actuator for selectively moving to a position that corresponds to a commanded brake force. A cap assembly is coupled to the end of the actuator and is configured to engage an aircraft brake element and supply the commanded brake force to one or more air...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	An aircraft brake actuation system includes an actuator for selectively moving to a position that corresponds to a commanded brake force. A cap assembly is coupled to the end of the actuator and is configured to engage an aircraft brake element and supply the commanded brake force to one or more aircraft wheels. The cap assembly is constructed of a low thermal conductivity material and has thermal resistance grooves formed therein. The cap assembly is also configured to compensate for certain undesired tangential movements that may occur during an aircraft brake cycle.
