Abstract

A braking device for winding cores for webs of material to be unwound with varying web tension. The device includes a pressure medium actuated cylinder piston unit controlling brake shoes which act on the winding core trunnions. The cylinder-piston unit comprises at least two longitudinally aligned pistons having their axes coincident in the operating direction and abutting on each other in their rest positions. The pressure medium is applied to the pistons individually or in tandem to produce different braking forces.
