Abstract:

A braking system for a pair of in-line roller skates having a housing with a plurality of rollers located one behind the other along a line of directional travel of the skate from a front end to a rear end. First and second rotors are secured to at least one of the plurality of the rollers. First and second pistons retained in the housing are located in a line perpendicular to the first and second rotors. An actuation piston is located in the housing and connected by first and second passageways to the first and second pistons. A boot which is secured to the housing has a pivotally attached collar located adjacent an opening for the foot of a skater. The collar engages an ankle of a skater for retention of the boot on a foot of the skater. A linkage extends from the collar to the actuation piston. When the skater is traveling in a forward direction, a center of gravity through which weight is transmitted from the boot into the housing is located toward the front end of the housing.
