Title: Innovations of Frederick A. Jelley
Introduction
Frederick A. Jelley is an accomplished inventor based in Suttons Bay, MI (US). He has made significant contributions to the field of brake technology, holding two patents that showcase his innovative approach to enhancing braking systems.
Latest Patents
One of Jelley's latest patents is the "Gain Stabilizing Self-Energized Brake Mechanism." This invention features a self-energized disk brake assembly that includes gain stabilization elements for controlling the multiplication of applied force against a rotatable brake member. The assembly consists of a first brake pad supported about a first pivot and a second brake pad supported about a second pivot. An actuator applies force to drive the brake pads into the rotatable brake member. The frictional force between the brake pads and the rotatable brake member pulls the brake pads into further engagement, generating an increase in braking force through self-energization. The positions of the first and second pivots are adjustable, allowing for control over the amount of braking force generated from self-energization.
Another notable patent is the "Multiple Ball Screw Assembly with Differing Pitch Used to Optimize Force and Displacement of Brake Actuator." This brake assembly features a caliper with a first brake pad and a second brake pad, where the first brake pad is moveable relative to the caliper. A brake actuator moves the first brake pad and includes a first threaded member and a second threaded member. The first threaded member has specific thread characteristics for moving the brake actuator at a first speed and a first force, while the second threaded member has different characteristics for moving the actuator at a second speed and a second force. Notably, the first speed is greater than the second speed, while the first force is lower than the second force.
