Abstract: An assembly for attaching a brake cam shaft to a slack adjuster includes a cam shaft with cam elements at one end thereof and an attachment portion at its other end. The shaft has a spline adjacent the attachment portion. A securing member is locatable about the shaft or a shoulder on the shaft, the securing member or shoulder limiting the extent to which the splined end of the shaft may project into or through the splined aperture of the slack adjuster. A fastener is secured to the attachment portion such that when the shaft is securfed to the slack adjuster, the shaft is held fast relative thereto with the slack adjuster located between the shoulder or the securing member and the fastener.

Abstract: The invention relates to a brake shoe retainer mounting assembly. The assembly has a cylindrical anchor pin with through bore. This pin is located to extend through the brake shoe and through a brake spider. A retaining washer is located at either end of the pin and the assembly is held in position by a fastener which extends through the bore.

Abstract: Carbon-carbon fiber composites suitable for use in aircraft brake discs are made by extruding an aqueous gelled mixture containing chopped carbon fibers and a binder-thickening agent into the form of an elongated ribbon wherein the fibers are aligned in the direction of fluid flow. The ribbon is then arranged into a spiral configuration to form a flat disc shaped article with the fibers oriented in the circumferential direction. The disc shaped article is dried, heated to a sufficiently high temperature to carbonize the binder in the mixture and then impregnated with a liquid carbonaceous binder followed by heating the article to at least a carbonizing temperature in order to densify the product.

Abstract: A method of impregnating a fibrous textile material with a plastic resin so as to produce an impregnated fibrous textile material which can be laminated under heat and pressure to produce a composite article. Such method comprises forming a dispersion of a powdered plastic resin in water which has been thickened by means of a water-soluble thickener; applying the dispersion to a fibrous textile material to distribute the resin over the fibers thereof; drying the fibrous textile material treated in this manner to remove the water present; and heating the dried material at a temperature sufficiently elevated to cause the resin to fuse and form a matrix for the fibers.

Abstract: A bush assembly for a radius rod or rocker arm includes an eye at an end of the rod or arm oscillatable on a pin the ends of which are engaged in a bracket, a pair of resilient outer bushes being engaged on a pair of tubular outer spacers on the pin and in openings in the bracket, and a pair of resilient inner bushes being engaged on a pair of tubular inner spacers on the pin and in the eye of the rod or arm, the inner bushes being frictionally bonded to the eye and to the inner spacers, which are freely rotatable on the pin.
