An aircraft brake rotor includes a circular rotor disk (10) having first and second walls (12) and a peripheral wall (14) connecting the first and second walls (12), the peripheral wall (14) including at least one notch (16) having a bottom wall (18) and first and second side walls (20) extending aw
An aircraft brake rotor includes a circular rotor disk (10) having first and second walls (12) and a peripheral wall (14) connecting the first and second walls (12), the peripheral wall (14) including at least one notch (16) having a bottom wall (18) and first and second side walls (20) extending away from the bottom wall (18), an insert (22, 50, 60) having a first portion (24, 62) mounted against the first side wall (20) and a retainer (30, 74) connected to the rotor disk (10) and having at least one projection (38, 82), a portion of the at least one insert (22, 50, 60) extending between the at least projection (38, 82) and the first side wall (20), thus limiting movement of the insert (22, 50, 60) in a direction perpendicular to the first side wall (20).

What is claimed is: 1. An aircraft brake rotor comprising: a circular rotor disk having first and second walls and a peripheral wall connecting said first and second walls, said peripheral wall including at least one notch having a bottom wall and first and second side walls extending away from said bottom wall; at least one insert having a first portion mounted against said first side wall; and a retainer connected to said rotor disk and having a plurality of projections projecting into said at least one notch, a portion of said at least one insert extending between said plurality of projections and said first side wall, thereby limiting movement of said at least one insert in a direction perpendicular to said first side wall, wherein said at least one notch comprises a first notch and a second notch and said retainer includes a first end at said first notch and a second end at said second notch, and said retainer comprises at least one U-shaped end portion, said at least one U-shaped end portion comprising first and second legs and a central portion connecting said first and second legs, wherein a first one of said plurality of projections projects from said first leg and a second one of said plurality of projections projects from said second leg. 2. The aircraft brake rotor of claim 1 wherein said plurality of projections comprises first and second projections. 3. The aircraft brake rotor of claim 2 including a reinforcing strap connected between said first and second projections. 4. The aircraft brake rotor of claim 1 wherein said at least one insert has a second portion spaced from said first portion, said second portion having a width less than a width of said first portion. 5. The aircraft brake rotor of claim 4 wherein said second portion width is less than a thickness of said rotor disk. 6. The aircraft brake rotor of claim 1 wherein said at least one insert includes a first insert overlying said first side wall and a second insert overlying said second side wall, said first insert being joined to said second insert. 7. The aircraft brake rotor of claim 1 wherein said at least one insert comprises first and second inserts, overlying said first side wall and said second side wall, respectively, and being separate inserts. 8. The aircraft brake rotor of claim 1 wherein said at least one U-shaped end portion comprises first and second U-shaped end portions, a first one of said plurality of projections extending into said first notch and a second one of said plurality of projections extending into said second notch. 9. The aircraft brake rotor of claim 8 including a plurality of fasteners fastening said retainer to said rotor brake disk. 10. An aircraft brake rotor comprising: a circular rotor disk having first and second sides and a peripheral wall connecting said first and second sides, said peripheral wall including at least one notch having a bottom wall and first and second side walls extending away from said bottom wall; load distributing means mounted against said first side wall and against said second side wall; and retainer means connected to said rotor disk for retaining said load distributing means against said first side wall, said retainer means having projection means projecting into said at least one notch, wherein a portion of said load distributing means extends between said projection means and said first side wall, said at least one notch comprises a first notch and a second notch and said retainer means includes a first end at said first notch and a second end at said second notch, and said retainer means comprises first and second U-shaped end portions, a first one of said projection means extending into said first notch and a second one of said projection means extending into said second notch. 11. The aircraft brake rotor of claim 10 wherein said load distributing means includes a first load distributing member overlying said first side wall and joined to a second load distributing member overlying said second side wall and said retainer means overlies said peripheral wall. 12. The aircraft brake rotor of claim 10 wherein said load distributing means comprises a first load distributing member mounted against said first side wall and a second load distributing member mounted against said second side wall, said second load distributing member being separate from said first load distributing member. 13. The aircraft brake rotor of claim 12 wherein said first load distributing member is removable from said notch independently of said second load distributing member. 14. An aircraft brake rotor comprising: a circular rotor disk having first and second sides and a peripheral wall connecting said first and second sides, said peripheral wall including a first notch and a second notch circumferentially spaced from said first notch, each of said first and second notches having first and second side walls extending away from said bottom wall, first and second inserts in said first notch overlying said first notch first and second side walls; third and fourth inserts in said second notch overlying said second notch first and second side walls; a retainer having a first U-shaped end portion near said first notch and a second U-shaped end portion near said second notch, first and second projections at said first U-shaped end portion projecting into said first notch and third and fourth projections at said second U-shaped end portion projecting into said second notch, a portion of said first insert extending between said first projection and said first notch first wall and a portion of said third insert extending between said third projection and a portion of said second notch second wall, thereby limiting movement of said first insert in a direction perpendicular to said first notch first side wall and limiting movement of said third insert in a direction perpendicular to said second notch second side wall. 15. The aircraft brake rotor of claim 14 wherein said first insert has a first portion in contact with said first notch first side and a second portion spaced from said first notch first side, said first insert second portion having a width less than a width of said first insert first portion. 16. The aircraft brake rotor of claim 15 wherein the width of said first insert second portion is less than the width of said first insert first portion.
