Abstract: An improved small wheel disc brake for skateboards, scooters, and carts, which facilitates a heat management design to provide higher level of performance operation without brake failure thereby improving the safety of said vehicles. The disc brake (6) includes a non-metallic friction pad disc (18) which is fixed to the central aperture of a wheel hub (28), (FIG. 1) and a matching non-turning rotor (24) that is slideable linked to a hub (16) that is made apart of an axle support structure (17). The non-turning rotor (24) is controllably coupled with the friction pad disc (18) by means of cam levelr (13), which is a pivotally attached to the axle support structure (17) by an attachment bolt (15). A means is provided for remotely activating the mechanism, which includes a Bowden cable (8), wire (9) and handgrip (10). The friction pad disc (18) provides for efficient brake action and smooth modulation while insulating wheel components from frictional heat associated with braking.

Abstract: An improved disk brake system which is readily adaptable to conventional small wheel vehicles such as: skateboards, scooters, rollerblades and carts which facilitates an improved heat management design to provided a higher performance of operation without brake failure thereby improving the safety of said vehicles. The disc brake 6 includes a friction pad disc 18 which is affixed to the central aperture of a wheel hub 28, (FIG. 1) a matching non-turning rotor 24 that is slideably linked to a square hub 26 that is made apart of an axle support structure 17. The non-turning rotor 24 becomes controllably coupled with the friction pad disc 18 by means of a cam lever 13, which is pivotally attached to the axle support structure 17. A means is provided for remotely activating the mechanism, which includes a Bowden cable 8, wire 9 and handgrip 10. The friction pad disc 18 provides for efficient braking action, smooth modulation while insulating wheel components from frictional heat associated with braking.
