At the same time, whether the valve block, the oil tank body and the hydraulic cylinder body can be disassembled or welded or integrally processed to finally form an integrated structure, the processing and assembly are very convenient and quick.

[0044] In order to make the technical purpose, technical solution and beneficial effects of the present invention more clear, the technical solution of the present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0045] A specific embodiment 1 of the electro-hydraulic brake cylinder involved in the present invention is as follows Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the electro-hydraulic brake cylinder includes a box body 1, which is an open box structure with surrounding plates on all sides and a bottom plate at the bottom. The box body constitutes a basic part. A fixed installation part 2 for installing a brake arm is welded and fixed on the outer wall of the bottom plate, and the brake arm can be hinged on the fixed installation part 2. At the same time, an oil mark 4 is also provided on the bottom plate. An oil circuit board 3 is provided at the middle position of the box body 1 to divide the inside of the box body 1 into a left chamber and a right chamber, wherein the left chamber is connected to a hydraulic cylinder body to form a piston chamber 5, and the hydraulic cylinder body constitutes a first connecting part, and the right chamber is connected to a valve block 24 to form an oil storage chamber 6, and the valve block 24 constitutes a second connecting part. The inside of the box body 1 is filled with hydraulic oil, and plugs 7 are provided on the left and right side walls of the box body 1 for filling oil into the box body 1 or discharging oil.

[0046] At the same time, an intermediate plate 8 is provided on the upper cover of the box body 1, and the intermediate plate 8 is fixedly connected to the box body 1 and the oil circuit board 3 by welding. A through hole is provided on the intermediate plate 8 at the position corresponding to the left chamber, and a cylinder barrel 9 is inserted in the through hole. The cylinder barrel 9 and the left side part of the box body 1 are surrounded to form a hydraulic cylinder body. The outer side of the cylinder barrel 9 has an outer step surface facing downward. In the actual installation process, the cylinder barrel 9 is inserted into the left chamber, and the outer step surface is fitted and connected with the intermediate plate 8, thereby realizing the connection between the cylinder barrel 9 and the box body 1.

[0047] A piston rod 10 is guided through the cylinder 9. Specifically, the piston rod 10 includes a piston 11, a guide rod 12 and a screw 13 connected in sequence from bottom to top. The end of the screw 13 constitutes a movable hinge part for hinged cooperation with the brake arm. A rodless cavity 14 is formed between the lower end of the piston 11 of the piston rod 10 and the piston cavity 5, and a rod cavity 15 is formed between the piston and the cylinder 9. At the same time, the guide rod 12 of the piston rod 10 protrudes upward from the cylinder 9.

[0048] The cylinder barrel 9 includes a cylinder body 17 and a sleeve 16 sleeved on the upper part of the cylinder body 17, the two are axially fixed by pins, and a sealing ring is filled between the joint surfaces. The piston rod 10 is guided and installed in the cylinder body 17 from bottom to top, and the lower end of the circumferential side of the piston rod 10 has an upward lower step surface 19, which is blocked and limited between the lower step surface 19 and the limit surface 20 of the inner wall of the cylinder body 17. At the same time, the upper end of the guide rod 12 of the piston rod 10 passes through the upper end of the sleeve 16 and extends upward, and a sealing ring is also provided between the piston 11 of the piston rod 10 and the cylinder body 17 to prevent hydraulic oil from entering the rod cavity 15 from the rodless cavity 14. A stop edge 21 is provided at the upper end portion of the circumferential side of the piston rod 10, and a disc spring 22 is pressed and assembled between the stop edge 21 and the upper end surface of the cylinder body 17. At the same time, a sealing cover is provided on the upper end cover of the sleeve 16, and a sealing ring 25 is filled between the sealing cover and the upper end of the circumferential side of the piston rod 10 to prevent oil from overflowing from the rod cavity 15 to the outside of the sleeve 16.

[0049] Under normal conditions, due to the arrangement of the disc spring 22, the piston rod 10 is pressed upwardly to extend, thereby causing the corresponding brake arm to clamp and brake. Under the pressure of the hydraulic oil, the piston rod 10 will be retracted downwardly in the piston chamber 5, thereby releasing the brake device from braking.

[0050] Specifically, a pressurized oil port 23 is provided on the inner wall of the cylinder body 17 at a position corresponding to the limit surface 20, and an annulus 18 communicating with the pressurized oil port 23 is provided between the limit surface 20 and the lower step surface 19 of the piston rod 10, and a sealing ring 25 is also provided between the side wall of the piston rod 10 below the lower step surface 19 and the cylinder body 17 to prevent oil from overflowing from the annulus 18 into the rodless cavity 14. The high-pressure oil in the oil storage cavity 6 enters the annulus 18 through the pressurized oil port 23, pushes the piston rod 10 downward to move and retract into the piston cavity 5, and then drives the brake arm to open and release the brake.

[0051] For the right chamber, Figure 1As shown, a valve block 24 is fixedly installed above the right chamber of the housing 1. The valve block 24 is fixedly covered by screws on the right side wall of the housing 1 and above the middle oil circuit board 3, so that an oil storage chamber 6 is formed in the middle oil circuit board 3 of the housing 1, the right side wall and the valve block 24, and the valve block 24 and the housing 1 together form an oil tank body 17. A through hole extending in the up-down direction is opened at the center of the valve block 24, and a gear pump 26 is arranged at a position corresponding to the through hole in the oil storage chamber 6. The gear pump 26 constitutes a pressurized oil pump, and the input shaft of the gear pump 26 constitutes a pump rod of the pressurized oil pump. The input shaft is guided and installed in the through hole along the up-down direction, and a cross joint 29 is provided at the upper end of the input shaft. A drive motor 27 is fixed at the upper end of the valve block 24. In this embodiment, the drive motor 27 can be a DC motor or an AC motor, without specific limitation. The motor shaft of the drive motor 27 extends downward into the through hole and is connected to the input shaft of the gear pump 26 through a cross joint 29. Thereby, the motor shaft can rotate to drive the input shaft of the gear pump 26 to rotate, thereby driving the gear pump 26 to work the pump oil.

[0052] In order to be able to control the internal oil circuit of the electro-hydraulic brake cylinder through the structural design of the valve block 24, in the present embodiment, the valve block 24 is provided with a plurality of valve channels, including an oil inlet channel 32 for connecting the rod chamber 15 of the piston chamber 5 and the oil storage chamber 6, the two ends of the oil inlet channel 32 are respectively an oil inlet port 30 and an oil outlet port 31, and also includes an oil return channel 33 connecting the rodless chamber 14 of the piston chamber 5 and the oil storage chamber 6. In the present embodiment, the oil return channel 33 is arranged on the middle oil circuit plate 3 and extends in the left and right directions. That is to say, the gear pump 26 drives the high-pressure oil to enter the rod chamber 15 through the oil inlet channel 32, overcomes the clamping force of the disc spring 22 to press down the piston rod 10, and the oil in the rodless chamber 14 enters the oil storage chamber 6 through the oil return channel 33, thereby realizing the internal self-circulation of the oil.

[0053] In order to realize the control of the hydraulic drive of the piston rod 10, as Figure 3 As shown, a one-way valve 35 is provided in the oil inlet passage 32, and an overflow valve and a pressure relay 37 are connected at the position of the one-way valve 35 of the oil inlet passage 32, and a pressure measuring joint 38 for measuring the oil inlet pressure is also connected; a return oil passage 34 is also provided between the oil inlet 30 and the oil storage chamber 6 in the valve block 24, and the return oil passage 34 is connected with a solenoid valve 36 for controlling the on-off of the return oil passage 34, a throttle valve 39 for the flow size of the return oil passage 34, and a temperature switch 40 for controlling the oil temperature. Figure 3As shown, the oil inlet 30 is eccentrically arranged at the bottom end of the valve block 24 and is connected to the output port of the gear pump 26. A first through hole 41 extending in the left and right directions is arranged at the position corresponding to the oil inlet 30. The middle position of the first through hole 41 is connected to the oil inlet 30, and the two ends are respectively connected to the above-mentioned one-way valve 35 and the overflow valve. The oil outlet 31 is arranged on the left side of the lower end of the valve block 24, and a second through hole 42 extending forward and backward is correspondingly arranged on the valve block 24. One end of the second through hole 42 is connected to the pressure measuring joint 38, and the other end is connected to the pressure measuring joint 38. The first end is connected to a plug, the first through hole 41 is connected to the second through hole 42, the one-way valve 35 is arranged at the connecting point, and the oil outlet 31 is connected to the center position of the second through hole 42; at the same time, a third through hole 43 arranged parallel to the first through hole 41 is also provided on the valve block 24, the left end of the third through hole 43 is connected to the second through hole 42, and the right end is connected to the throttle valve 39 and the solenoid valve 36, one end of the solenoid valve 36 is connected to the oil storage chamber 6; the oil outlet 31 is arranged at a position between the first through hole 41 and the third through hole 43.

[0054] In the actual work process, Figure 4 As shown, when the system is powered on, the drive motor 27 starts, and the solenoid valve 36 is powered at the same time. The solenoid valve 36 controls the reflux oil passage 34 to close, and the hydraulic oil flows into the first perforation 41 through the oil inlet 30, and passes through the one-way valve 35 to the oil outlet 31, and then flows into the hydraulic cylinder body 17 to compress the disc spring 22. When the pressure reaches the set pressure of the pressure relay, the drive motor 27 is powered off, and the energy stored in the hydraulic cylinder is maintained. When the system loses power, the solenoid valve 36 loses power, and the reflux oil passage 34 is opened. The hydraulic oil flows back to the oil storage chamber 6 through the solenoid valve 36, and the hydraulic cylinder outputs thrust to the outside under the thrust of the disc spring 22.

[0055] In order to achieve the communication between the oil outlet 31 and the pressurized oil port 23 on the hydraulic cylinder body 17, in this embodiment, an intermediate oil channel 44 is provided on the intermediate oil circuit board 3. Figure 1 As shown, the intermediate oil passage 44 is a V-shaped structure, with the oil ports at both ends arranged upward, and one end of the oil port is in close contact with the oil outlet 31 on the valve block 24, and the other end of the oil port is in close contact with the pressurized oil port 23 on the hydraulic rod body. The intermediate plate 8 and the box body and the oil circuit plates are welded and fixed to ensure good sealing performance. At this time, the oil ports at both ends of the intermediate oil passage are located on the upper side of the intermediate plate 8.

[0056] Furthermore, in order to ensure continuous purification and filtration of the oil, a filter screen 45 is provided at the outlet of the oil return passage 33 close to the oil storage chamber 6 .

[0057] Furthermore, in this embodiment, in order to facilitate the control of the operator, a driving handle 28 is sleeved on the motor shaft of the motor for the operator to turn to drive the motor shaft to rotate. When the motor is not working, the driving handle 28 can be manually rotated to drive the gear pump 26 to work, thereby driving the piston rod 10 to move.

[0058] In this embodiment, the hydraulic rod body and the oil tank body 17 are designed as an integrated structure, which is mainly achieved by arranging a corresponding valve block 24 and a cylinder body 17 on the top of the overall box body 1 structure. The structure is relatively simple and easy to assemble. At the same time, there is no external oil pipe, the volume is small, and the practicality is high.

[0059] Embodiment 2: In this embodiment, the control mode, control principle and action mode of the oil circuit are basically the same as those in Embodiment 1 and will not be described in detail. Figure 5 As shown, the electro-hydraulic brake cylinder includes a box body 50, and a through hole 51 is provided at the upper left end of the box body 50. A hydraulic cylinder body 52 is fixed in the box body 50. A piston rod is provided inside the hydraulic cylinder body 52. ​​The upper chamber of the hydraulic cylinder body 52 is a rod chamber, and the lower chamber is a rodless chamber. The box body 50 constitutes the base part, and the oil storage chamber is formed inside the box body 50.

[0065] In other embodiments, the difference from Embodiment 1 is that when an oil circuit board is provided in the middle position of the box body, the middle oil channel can be directly designed to be connected with an oil pipe.

[0066] In other embodiments, the pressure oil pump may also adopt a plunger pump, a centrifugal pump or other structures; the pressure oil pump in the above embodiments is an internal gear pump, and in other embodiments, an external gear pump may also be adopted.

[0067] In other embodiments, the specific structural shape of the valve block and the internal oil path distribution are not specifically limited, and those skilled in the art can arbitrarily design the hydraulic oil flow path according to the above-mentioned embodiments.

[0068] In the above-mentioned embodiments, the extension directions of the hydraulic cylinder body and the oil cylinder body in the electro-hydraulic brake cylinder are arranged side by side in parallel, while in other embodiments, the hydraulic cylinder body and the oil cylinder body may also be arranged in an L-shaped direction, or adopt a back-to-back extension structure.

[0070] The embodiment of the brake device involved in the present invention comprises a brake frame and two brake arms relatively hinged on the brake frame, the ends of the brake arms can be relatively close to achieve braking and move away from each other to release the brake, and the brake device also comprises an electro-hydraulic brake cylinder for driving the two brake arms to move, and the structure of the electro-hydraulic brake cylinder is consistent with the structure of the electro-hydraulic brake cylinder in the above-mentioned embodiments, and will not be described in detail. The hydraulic brake device can be applied to various types of brake devices, such as Figure 8 The safety brake 71 shown, Fig. 9 The wheel brake 73 shown and Fig.10 The electro-hydraulic rail clamp 72 and the like shown are not specifically limited.

[0071] In other embodiments, a brake spring may be provided on the brake device to drive the piston rod to extend and drive the brake arm to clamp and brake after the return oil passage is connected. The brake spring may be designed as a compression spring structure other than a disc spring. When designed as a compression spring, it may be connected between the two brake arms, such as Fig.10 In the structure shown, a spring seat extending in a braking direction perpendicular to the brake arm is provided on the brake frame, a compression spring is provided in the spring seat, and transmission is achieved between the two brake arms through a connecting rod mechanism. The middle hinge point of the connecting rod mechanism pushes the upper end of the compression spring. When the piston rod retracts, the two brake arms open outward, and in the process of opening, the compression spring is squeezed downward through the middle hinge point of the connecting rod mechanism, and the compression spring contracts, at which time the brake is released; on the contrary, when the piston rod has no hydraulic thrust, the compression spring pushes the middle hinge point upward, so that the two brake arms are relatively close and tightly fit together to achieve braking.

[0072] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate but not limit the technical solutions of the present invention, and any equivalent substitutions of the present invention and any modifications or partial substitutions that do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
