This utility model provides a pneumatic
brake assist
system, belonging to the technical field of
winch braking systems. It includes a
brake handle, a
brake lever, a brake band, and a brake drum. The brake
handle is connected to the brake band via the brake lever, and the brake band covers the outer circumference of the brake drum. It also includes: a cylinder, one end of which is hinged to a mounting platform, and the other end to the brake lever; an air tank, which is connected to the rodless chamber of the cylinder via an air inlet line; a
gas pressure regulating valve, which is connected in series on the air inlet line; and a linkage, which moves with the rotation of the brake
handle and drives the
gas pressure regulating valve to adjust the gas flow from the air tank to the cylinder according to the rotation angle of the brake handle. This utility model, through the linkage of a
cam and the
gas pressure regulating valve, adjusts the assist level by adjusting the angle of the brake handle, achieving precise adjustment of the
winch speed. It has a simple and compact structure, low cost, and reliable performance.
