Abstract
An electrically controlled brake assembly for a vehicle wheel of the type in which an operating arm is mounted between its ends to turn about a pivot on a backing plate and carries at least one electromagnet on one of its ends. Two downwardly projecting tongues are formed on the lower end of the pivoted operating arm of the brake assembly and ride in a channel defined by a guide which is attached to the backing plate of the assembly, the tongues and the guide coacting to prevent the operating arm from cocking on its pivot during braking.
