  • Patent number: 8230983
    Abstract: An electrically actuated aircraft brake with a carbon-carbon composite heat pack and an electrical actuator for engaging the heat pack and operating the brake. When the brake is not being applied, the brake actuator is adjusted in dependence upon temperature, for example, by controlling the actuator to maintain a temperature regulated position.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 9, 2006
    Date of Patent: July 31, 2012
    Assignee: Meggitt Aerospace Limited
    Inventors: David Alexander Bailey, Jonathan Deric Lumb, Andrew Whittingham
  • Patent number: 7673721
    Abstract: Method and apparatus for monitoring electrically-actuated aircraft brakes includes measuring the break heat pack thickness to determine wear of the brake discs and adjusting the measurement so as to give ongoing compensation for temperature variations and hence expansion of the heat pack.
