페이지 인쇄OPERATION
Controlled air pressure enters the brake chamber through
the inlet port and acts upon the diaphragm moving the push
plate and rod assembly forward.
When the brake chamber is used to actuate cam type brake
foundation assemblies, the yoke (which is threaded on the
push rod) is connected to a slack adjuster, which in turn is
connected to the brake cam shaft. This forward motion of
the push rod rotates the slack adjuster, cam shaft and cam
applying the vehicle brakes.
The greater air pressure admitted to the brake chamber, the
greater the force applied by the push rod and conversely,
the less pressure applied to the brake chamber the less
force applied by the push rod. Push rod force is determined
by multiplying the delivered air pressure by the effective
diaphragm area. For example, if 60 psi is admitted to a type
30 brake chamber, the lineal force on the end of the push
rod is approximately 1800 lbs.
When air pressure is released from the brake chamber, the
push rod return spring in combination with the brake shoe
return spring returns the diaphragm, push plate and rod
assembly, slack adjuster and brake cam to their released
positions releasing the brakes.
PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
A. Every Month, 8,000 Miles or 300 Operating Hours,
depending on type of operation
1. Check push rod travel and adjust travel at the slack
adjuster if needed. Push rod travel should be as short
as possible without brakes dragging. Excessive push
rod travel reduces braking efficiency, shortens
diaphragm life, gives slow braking response and
wastes air.
2. Check push rod to slack adjuster alignment from
release to full stroke position to be sure push rod
moves out and returns properly without binding at
the non-pressure plate hole or with other structures.
Also check the angle formed by the slack adjuster
arm and push rod. It should be greater than 900 when
the chamber is in the released position and approach
900 at maximum re-adjustment stroke.
3. Check tightness of mounting nuts. Check cotter pins
to make sure they are in place.
4. Check all hoses and lines. They should be secure
and in good condition.
B. Every Year or after each 100,000 Miles or 3600 Operating
Hours, depending on type of operation
1.
Disassemble and clean all parts.

2. Install new diaphragm or any other parts if they are
worn or deteriorated. When the diaphragm, spring,
or both are replaced, they should be replaced in the
corresponding chamber on the same axle.
OPERATING AND LEAKAGE TESTS
A. OPERATING TEST
1. Apply brakes and observe the push rods move out
promptly and without binding.
2. Release brakes and observe that the push rods return
to the released position promptly and without binding.
3. Check push rod travel. Push rod travel should be as
short as possible without brakes dragging. Adjust
travel of push rod at slack adjuster if necessary.
B. LEAKAGE TEST
1. Make and hold a full brake application.
2. Using soap solution, coat clamping ring(s). If leakage
is detected, tighten clamping ring only enough to
stop leakage. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN as this can
distort sealing surface or clamping ring. Coat area
around push rod hole (loosen boot if necessary). No
leakage is permitted. If leakage is detected, the
diaphragm must be replaced.
REMOVING AND INSTALLING
A. REMOVING
1. Block vehicle wheels.
2. Release air pressure in all reservoirs.
3. Disconnect line to chamber.
4. Remove the yoke pin.
5. Remove the brake chamber.
