ABSTRACT:
The improved aircraft brake piston cap assembly (40, 40') comprises an aircraft piston (10) having a pair of openings (46) extending through the piston (10) and a piston cap (42) with a flange (44) fitted around the circumference of the piston (10 ) and having a pair of openings (48) aligned with the openings (46) in the piston (10 ) . A safety wire (50 ) may extend through the openings (46, 48 ) and be wrapped about a portion of the circumference of the piston cap so that the ends (52) are intertwined (53) to retain the safety wire (50) in place and the cap (42) attached to the piston (10), or a solid or spring pin (60, 60') may be press fitted into the openings (46, 48) of one of the piston cap (42) and piston (10) to attach the piston cap (42) to the piston (10) . The improved piston cap assembly (40, 40') permits components within the piston (10) to be extended to axially longer dimensions, and provides an improved, efficient and reliable attachment of the piston cap (42) to the piston (10).
