ABSTRACT:

Annular actuating and thrust rings are disposed in the gap between the brake shoes and hydraulically actuated members are associated with the rings to move them against the brake shoes and press the brake shoes against the braking surface. The hydraulic actuating members may be a pair of hydraulic cylinders having pistons which move actuating rings associated with the brake shoes or a single piston acting against a projection from one actuating ring.
