Design and Fabrication of a Hydraulic Disc Brake Demonstration Apparatus
Abstract
This paper presents a detailed and fabrication of a low cost hydraulic disc brake demonstration apparatus. The paper shows the relevance of the apparatus for teaching in both schools and skill acquisition institutes on the working principles of a common hydraulic brake system. This was achieved by designing for the chain and gear drive, failure of the bolted and welded joints as well as the structural analysis. A simple hydraulic brake faults and diagnosis was presented. More than 85% of the materials used in the fabrication were locally sourced.
Key words: Hydraulic, Disc, Brake, Gear, Chain, Fabrication.
