Key Components:
- Drum: The rotating component around which the brake is applied.
- Brake Shoes: Friction material attached to levers or actuators that press against the drum to create braking action.
- Electromagnet: An electromagnet that generates a magnetic field when an electrical current is applied, pulling the brake shoes into contact with the drum.
- Spring Mechanism: Typically, a spring mechanism is used to release the brake shoes from the drum when the current is cut off.
- Control System: Electrical controls to manage the application and release of the brake.
