Abstract

A vane motor comprises a casing and a vane rotor being mounted in the casing. A friction brake device is arranged in the casing and it is intended for braking, stopping and releasing the vane rotor. At least one of the two end faces of the vane rotor is part of the brake device and forms a friction pair with a braking surface of a brake element of the brake device. The brake element is arranged next to the said end face of the vane rotor and is axially movable upon actuation of the friction brake device for braking, stopping and releasing the vane rotor.
