ABSTRACT:
A fluid pressure operated braking device for a piston rod. The braking device includes a clamp sleeve and a cam member spring biased axially in a direction to actuate the clamp sleeve to a clamp condition, and a fluid pressure operator that provides a hydraulically amplified force for moving the cam member in opposition to the spring to release the clamp sleeve. The fluid pressure operator includes a first piston operated in response to fluid pressure applied thereto to produce a force correlative with fluid pressure and the first piston is connected to a second piston that pressurizes a non-compressible fluid in a closed pressure chamber communicating with a third piston, and a third piston actuates the cam ring in opposition to the spring to release the clamp ring. The second piston has a cross-sectional area that is smaller than the cross-sectional area of the first and second piston such that the second piston is operated in response to actuation by the first piston, to pressurize the fluid in the closed pressure chamber to a pressure substantially higher than the pressure of the fluid supplied to the first piston.
