Abstract
A combination brake and brake wear take-up device is disclosed. The device comprises a disc brake assembly and a link assembly connected to actuator discs. A link assembly pull rod is connected to a fluid power piston slidably disposed in a cylinder. One or more conical washer members are carried around the piston and permit the piston to slide in the cylinder in one direction over a relatively extended distance, but permit the piston to slide in the opposite direction over only a limited distance. A snap ring disposed in the cylinder interior and a shoulder formed in the cylinder interior define the axial extent of that limited piston return motion.
