Abstract
A brake disc arrangement to be located at an end of an axle of a vehicle driven by an electric motor includes a rotor assembly having multiple rotor assembly pieces joined together with fasteners, as well as an adaptor. The pieces mentioned include rotor sections defining an engagement portion having surfaces to be contacted by friction pads. The rotor assembly also includes an attachment base and an intermediate section, surrounding a rotor assembly axis of rotation, extending along the rotor assembly axis of rotation between the engagement portion and the attachment base. When assembled, the adaptor extends between a wheel hub base and the attachment base of the rotor assembly so that the rotor assembly is securable to the wheel hub. The adaptor defines an internal volume within which a housing for the electric motor and at least a portion of the wheel hub are receivable.
