Abstract
A device for regenerating a brake, particularly for skates having a supporting frame for two or more wheels and a support for a pad which has an initially intact surface which interacts with the ground during braking. A sensor for detecting the degree of wear of the surface of the pad is associated with the support and is connected to a sprocket suitable to modify the initial position of the pad. Advantageously, this modification can be achieved by restoring an intact condition for the surface that interacts with the ground. The device allows to achieve optimum braking without requiring any intervention on the part of the user for pad replacement.
Claims22
A device for regenerating a brake, particularly for skates comprising a supporting frame for a plurality of wheels, a pad or block being associated, in a rear region, with said frame, said pad having a surface which is initially intact and interacts with the ground during braking, wherein a sensor for detecting the degree of wear of said surface of said pad is connected to a means which is suitable to automatically modify the initial position of said pad in response to said sensor.
A device for regenerating a brake, in a skate comprising a supporting frame for a plurality of wheels, the device comprising a pad or block being associated, in a rear region, with said frame, said pad having a surface which is initially intact and interacts with the ground during braking, wherein a sensor for detecting the degree of wear of said surface of said pad is connected to a modification device which is suitable to automatically modify the initial position of said pad in response to said sensor.
