Brake fixture definition

Brake fixture means a mechanical device or jig to mount the brake assembly by connecting the tailstock (or non-rotating surface) to the brake dynamometer shaft (rotating). The tailstock side (or non-rotating surface) absorbs the braking torque and associated tangential forces. The rotating shaft transmits the kinetic energy from the brake test inertia to the brake assembly.
