Disc brake tone ring
An assembly for an induction sensing tone ring is provided. A brake rotor includes a circular pocket. A tone ring is received in the circular pocket of the brake rotor. The brake rotor has a plurality of locating tabs, with each locating tab having a slope surface. The tone ring has a plurality of retaining tabs, with each retaining tab being received between two locating tabs of the brake rotor. A retaining ring is fitted in each locating tab slope surface of the brake rotor to press fit against the retaining tabs of the tone ring.
1. A disc brake assembly comprising:
a brake rotor,
the brake rotor having an internal wall forming a circular pocket,
an anti-lock brake sensing ring received in the brake rotor circular pocket,
the brake rotor having a plurality of locating tabs, each locating tab extending radially inward into the brake rotor circular pocket from the internal wall of the brake rotor,
each locating tab having a sloped surface as part of a retaining groove,
the anti-lock brake sensing ring having a plurality of retaining tabs, each retaining tab being positioned between two adjacent locating tabs of the brake rotor,
and a retaining ring positioned against at least two of the sloped surfaces of the retaining groove of the brake rotor, with the retaining ring also positioned against at least two of the retaining tabs of the anti-lock brake sensing ring.
2. The disc brake assembly of claim 1 ,
wherein the brake rotor includes a ridge extending from an upper surface of the brake rotor,
and the anti-lock brake sensing ring includes an inward facing surface that is radially adjacent the brake rotor ridge.
3. The disc brake assembly of claim 1 ,
wherein the brake rotor includes a ridge extending from an upper surface of the brake rotor,
and the anti-lock brake sensing ring includes an outward facing surface that is radially adjacent the brake rotor ridge.
4. The disc brake assembly of claim 1 ,
wherein each anti-lock brake sensing retaining tab is positioned between two adjacent locating tabs of the brake rotor in a manner such that any rotation of the anti-lock brake sensing ring within the brake rotor circular pocket is restricted.
5. A disc brake assembly comprising:
