Claims7
A braking system comprising:
- a frame having a first support and a second support;
- a first rotating joint defining a first pivot point and a second pivot point, the first pivot point of the first rotating joint coupled to the first support;
- a second rotating joint defining a first pivot point and a second pivot point, the first pivot point of the second rotating joint coupled to the second support;
- a first actuator coupled to the second pivot point of the first rotating joint;
- a second actuator coupled to the second pivot point of the second rotating joint;
- a brake pad defining a first connection point and a second connection point;
- a first arm having a first end coupled to the first rotating joint and an opposing second end coupled to the first connection point of the brake pad wherein the first arm is or includes a third actuator;
- and
- a second arm having a first end coupled to the second rotating joint and an opposing second end coupled to the second connection point of the brake pad wherein the second arm is or includes a fourth actuator.
