ABSTRACT:
A vehicle braking system including a wheel hub, a hub member separate from the wheel hub, a torsional coupling device and a magnetically actuable brake spring. In a preferred embodiment, the hub member is connected to the vehicle suspension by the torsional coupling device and, upon actuating, the brake spring wraps around the wheel hub to cause the hub member and the wheel hub to be nonrotatably joined together. In another embodiment, the wheel hub is torsionally connected to the hub member and actuation of the brake spring causes the hub member to be nonrotatably joined to the vehicle suspension. The movements of the wheel hub relative to the vehicle suspension permitted by the torsional coupling are monitored by an electronic control circuit that guards against wheel lockup or skid conditions. The electronic control circuit intermittently triggers the brake spring between brake release and approaching wheel lockup so as to incorporate anti-skid performance with the brake function. The braking system is disclosed for use with both a free-wheeling or nondriven wheel and a driven wheel.
