摘要： An electric disc brake system for a trailer. The brake system employs a caliper assembly that is attached to the trailer with floating fasteners, wherein the caliper assembly straddles an axle mounted rotor positioning an inner and outer brake pad adjacent to the rotor. A screw drive assembly is attached to the caliper. The assembly includes an electric motor coupled to a piston by a threaded shaft. The screw drive assembly converts rotation of the electric motor into linear motion to movement of the piston, wherein the inner and outer brake pads engage the rotor based upon the amount of pressure applied by the piston. A controller reacts to the pressure applied to a brake pedal to cause the electric motor to rotate in a clockwise or counter-clockwise direction.
