Is Braking the Same as Stopping?
1 Answers
Braking is indeed the same as stopping. Braking refers to the action of bringing a moving locomotive, vehicle, other means of transport, or machinery to a halt or reducing its speed. The general principle of braking involves fixing a wheel or disc on the high-speed shaft of the machine and installing corresponding brake shoes, bands, or discs on the machine base, which generate braking torque under external force. Here are some additional details: 1. Energy supply device: Includes various components that provide and regulate the energy required for braking and improve the state of the transmission medium; 2. Control device: Components that generate braking actions and control braking effects, such as the brake pedal; 3. Transmission device: Includes components that transmit braking energy to the brakes, such as the master cylinder and wheel cylinder; 4. Brake: Components that generate resistance to the movement or tendency of movement of the vehicle.
