Patent ID: 8794394

Claim:
An aircraft brake system comprising an aircraft brake disk mounted proximate to a first portion of a strut; a master ram module positioned to apply braking force to the aircraft brake disk; a second ram module positioned to apply braking force to the aircraft brake disk; an electric motor for actuating the master ram module and the second ram module mounted directly on a landing gear well proximate to a second portion of the strut, the first portion of the strut opposite the second portion of the strut when the strut is in a deployed position; a first cable connecting the electric motor to a gearbox for transferring an input force from the electric motor to the gearbox, wherein the gearbox is mounted to the master ram module, the gearbox comprising a plurality of gears to reduce input force, wherein the gearbox distributes force equally between the master ram module and the second ram module, wherein the gearbox transfers a first force from the gearbox directly to the master ram module; and a second cable for transferring a second force from the gearbox to the second ram module, the second cable connecting the gearbox to the second ram module.
