ABSTRACT:
The wet disc brake comprises a stack of reaction plates interspersed between a stack of friction plates all mounted within a sealed housing. A pool of oil is provided in the bottom of the housing. The pool of oil is contacted by the rotating friction plates to coat such plates with oil. A piston is provided for pressure engagement of the discs in a braking action. Spring means are provided to apply light pressure against the piston and stack of brake discs to continually maintain these elements in non-braking engagement.
