Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a disc brake with a seat sensor for monitoring the positive braking pressure, and is particularly suitable for monitoring the positive braking pressure of disc brakes of mine hoists and belt conveyors, and is also suitable for monitoring the positive braking pressure of other disc brakes. Background Art

[0002] Patent No. ZL2008 10155642.3 discloses a disc spring seat sensor for disc brakes to monitor the positive braking pressure. The disc spring seat sensor disc body monitors the disc spring force generated by the deformation of the disc spring, which is not equal to the positive braking pressure of the brake shoe assembly pressed onto the brake disc. After the oil pressure drops from the open state to the residual oil pressure, the brake shoe assembly moves to the right under the action of the disc spring force to press against the brake disc during the braking process. The disc spring force must overcome the friction force of the disc spring hole, hydraulic cylinder and sealing ring, rear cover and sealing ring, and brake seat acting on the brake shoe assembly and the residual oil pressure acting on the piston, and finally reduces to the final positive braking pressure of the brake shoe assembly pressed onto the brake disc. Obviously, the disc spring force is greater than the positive braking pressure, and the positive braking pressure is not equal to the disc spring force. This patent mistakenly uses the disc spring force monitored by the disc spring seat sensor disc body as the positive braking pressure, and uses it as the basis for diagnosing faults. There are great hidden dangers. The lifting disc with the disc spring seat sensor disc body installed Type brake, although the monitored disc spring force is greater than or equal to the allowable value of the braking positive pressure, there have been accidents of brake failure. For example, the disc brake of a mine's inclined shaft hoist should use a disc spring with an inner hole diameter of 72mm, but a disc spring with an inner hole diameter of 71mm was used by mistake. During braking, the friction force of the disc spring hole on the brake shoe assembly was greater than the disc spring force, and a jamming fault occurred in which the disc spring force did not push the brake shoe assembly to the right. The brake shoe did not press onto the brake disc and the braking positive pressure was zero. The brake failure led to a major accident of the inclined shaft hoist running away, but the disc spring force monitored by the disc spring seat sensor disk was equal to the friction force of the disc spring hole on the brake shoe assembly, which was very large and not equal to zero, and the major fault of zero braking positive pressure was not monitored. The disc spring seat sensor disk monitors the disc spring force, not the braking positive pressure of the brake shoe pressing onto the brake disc, and cannot monitor the fault of insufficient braking positive pressure, and the monitored disc spring force is invalid.

[0003] When the car is started with the brake open, the brake shoe leaves the brake disc to maintain a certain brake gap, and the positive braking pressure should be zero, but the disc spring force is equal to the working oil pressure of the open brake. The disc spring force monitored by the disc spring seat sensor disc cannot diagnose the fault of the brake not opening when the car is started with the brake open.

[0004] This shows that it is effective to monitor the positive braking pressure of the brake shoe pressed onto the brake disc. For this reason, a disc brake that monitors the positive braking pressure of the brake shoe pressed onto the brake disc is invented. Summary of the invention

[0005] Technical problem: The purpose of the present invention is to address the deficiencies in the prior art and provide a brake and a monitoring method thereof that uses a seat-type sensor to monitor the positive braking pressure of the brake shoe pressed onto the brake disc.

[0006] Technical solution: A disc brake with a seat-type sensor for monitoring brake positive pressure of the present invention comprises: a brake disc, a brake shoe, a cylinder, a brake seat, a disc spring group, a hydraulic cylinder, a sealing ring one, a piston, a sealing ring two, an adjusting screw, a rear cover, a screw three and a lining plate. One side of the cylinder is dynamically fitted on the brake seat and connected to the piston, and the other side is connected to a seat-type brake positive pressure sensor. The seat-type brake positive pressure sensor is a stepped disc, and a left annular groove and a right annular groove are symmetrically opened on the outer circumference of the two end surfaces of the stepped disc. A plurality of strain gauges connected by signal lines are arranged in the left annular groove or the right annular groove. The cross-sectional thickness of the disc at the opposite position of the left annular groove and the right annular groove is 5-10mm. The inner end face of the left side of the stepped disc is slightly higher than the outer end seat face, and the inner end face of the right side is slightly lower than the outer end face. The outer end face of the right side of the seat-type brake positive pressure sensor is fixedly connected to the lining plate, and the lining plate and the brake shoe are connected as a whole via a dovetail groove.

[0007] The plurality of strain gauges are 4 to 8 pieces, which are evenly distributed on the ring at the bottom of the left annular groove or the right annular groove.

[0008] The cylinder is a tube, and the middle part of the seat-type brake positive pressure sensor connected to the cylinder is sequentially provided with an outer hole, a middle hole and an inner hole. A T-shaped connecting rod is provided in the cylinder on the same axis as the cylinder, and the disc spring assembly is mounted on the T-shaped connecting rod. The front part of the T-shaped connecting rod passes through the middle hole of the seat-type brake positive pressure sensor and is buckled and connected with the piston and fixed by three screws. The tail part of the T-shaped connecting rod cooperates with and is fixedly connected with the outer hole of the seat-type brake positive pressure sensor, and the inner hole of the seat-type brake positive pressure sensor is buckled on the outer end surface of the cylinder and fixed by screws.

[0009] The cylinder body is a flat-bottom sleeve with a center column. The flat-bottom sleeve and the seat-type brake positive pressure sensor are an integrated structure. The seat-type brake positive pressure sensor is located at the bottom of the flat-bottom sleeve. The end face fixedly connected to the lining plate is slightly higher than the bottom end face of the flat-bottom sleeve. The disc spring assembly is mounted in the flat-bottom sleeve. The head of the center column in the flat-bottom sleeve is buckled and connected to the piston and fixed by three screws.

[0010] The cylinder is a convex bottom sleeve with a center column. An outer hole and an inner hole are opened in the middle of the seat-type brake positive pressure sensor connected to the cylinder. The inner hole of the seat-type brake positive pressure sensor is sleeved on the convex bottom of the cylinder and fixed by screws. The outer circular end face of the seat-type brake positive pressure sensor is snapped into the connecting sleeve of the lining plate and fixed by screws. The disc spring assembly is sleeved in the convex bottom sleeve. The head of the center column in the convex bottom sleeve is snapped into connection with the piston and fixed by three screws.

[0011] The monitoring method of the disc brake using the above-mentioned seat-type sensor to monitor the positive brake pressure is as follows: during braking, the bottom rings of the left and right annular grooves of the seat-type positive brake pressure sensor produce shear and bending deformations under the action of F1 and F2, which are strain areas. F1 is proportional to the strain amount. The strain signals of multiple strain gauges are output to the host computer through the signal line to monitor the size of the positive brake pressure F1 in real time; the positive brake pressure F1 applied by the brake shoe to the brake disc is used as the basis for diagnosing faults and giving control instructions. The process is as follows:

[0012] Opening process: After the oil pressure in the closed brake state rises to the working oil pressure, the working oil pressure acting on the piston overcomes the disc spring force generated by the compression and deformation of the disc spring group and the friction force in all directions to continue to compress the disc spring group, so that the brake shoe moves left away from the gate disc, and the gate clearance is maintained at less than 2mm set by the adjusting screw;

[0013] Monitoring process before driving: Monitor the brake positive pressure F1 through the seat-type brake positive pressure sensor. If the brake positive pressure F1 = 0, it indicates that there is no fault, and the vehicle is allowed to drive. If the brake positive pressure F1 ≠ 0, the diagnosis brake cannot be opened, and the vehicle is not allowed to drive. The vehicle can only drive after the fault is eliminated.

[0014] During the gate opening status monitoring process, the gate disc rotates and the hoist starts to drive. At the same time, the seat-type brake positive pressure sensor monitors the brake positive pressure F1. When the brake positive pressure F1≠0, the gate application fault is diagnosed, and an alarm is given in time and the safety brake is activated. After the fault is eliminated, the drive is allowed again;

[0015] During the braking process, after the oil pressure drops from the open state to the residual oil pressure, the disc spring force generated by the compression and deformation of the disc spring group overcomes the residual oil pressure acting on the piston and the combined force of the friction forces around to push the brake shoe to the right and press the brake disc, thus achieving the closing brake;

[0016] During the monitoring process before the brake is opened after the brake is finished, the seat-type brake positive pressure sensor monitors the brake positive pressure F1. If the brake positive pressure F1 is greater than or equal to the allowable value of the brake positive pressure, the next start is allowed; if the brake positive pressure F1 is less than the allowable value of the brake positive pressure, the brake positive pressure is insufficient, and an alarm is sounded and the next start is locked. The gate can be opened after the hidden danger of the fault is eliminated;

[0017] The above process is repeated to complete the real-time monitoring of the brake positive pressure F1 and achieve reliable operation of the disc brake.

[0018] Beneficial effect: Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the brake of the present invention can accurately monitor the positive braking pressure F1 of the brake shoe pressed on the brake disc, solving the problem that the brake in the prior art cannot monitor the positive braking pressure F1 of the brake shoe pressed on the brake disc. Since the disc spring force monitored by the disc spring seat sensor in the existing brake is not the positive braking pressure F1 of the brake shoe directly pressed on the brake disc, the disc spring force is equal to the positive braking pressure F1 after deducting the friction force and residual pressure at all places during braking. The disc spring force is greater than the positive braking pressure F1. It is very dangerous to mistakenly use the disc spring force monitored by the disc spring seat sensor disc as the positive braking pressure. The present invention uses the positive braking pressure applied by the monitored brake shoe to the brake disc as the basis for diagnosing faults and giving control instructions: before driving, it is equal to zero to allow driving, it is not equal to zero, the fault of the gate not opening is diagnosed, and the current driving is locked; during operation, it is not equal to zero, the gate application fault is diagnosed, and the safety brake is enabled; during braking, it is greater than or equal to the allowable value of the positive braking pressure, and the next driving is allowed. It is less than the allowable value of the positive braking pressure, and the fault of insufficient positive braking pressure is diagnosed, and the next driving is locked, which greatly improves the braking effect of the disc brake.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0026] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments in the accompanying drawings:

[0027] The present invention discloses a method for monitoring a disc brake using a seat-type sensor to monitor the positive braking pressure. During braking, the bottom rings of the left and right annular grooves of the seat-type positive braking pressure sensor 5 produce shear and bending deformations under the action of F1 and F2, which are strain areas. F1 is proportional to the amount of strain. The strain signals of the plurality of strain gauges 5-1 are output to the host computer through the signal line 5-2, and the magnitude of the positive braking pressure F1 is monitored in real time. The positive braking pressure F1 applied by the monitoring brake shoe 2 to the brake disc 1 is used as the basis for diagnosing faults and giving control instructions. The process is as follows:

[0028] Opening process: After the oil pressure in the brake-on state rises to the working oil pressure, the working oil pressure acting on the piston 13 overcomes the disc spring force generated by the compression and deformation of the disc spring group 10 and the friction forces at all four sides to continue compressing the disc spring group 10, so that the brake shoe 2 moves left away from the gate disc 1, and the gate clearance is maintained at less than 2 mm set by the adjusting screw 15;

[0029] Monitoring process before driving: monitor the brake positive pressure F1 through the seat-type brake positive pressure sensor 5. If the brake positive pressure F1 = 0, it indicates that there is no fault, and the vehicle is allowed to drive; if the brake positive pressure F1 ≠ 0, the diagnosis brake cannot open the fault, and the vehicle is not allowed to drive. The vehicle can only drive after the fault is eliminated;

[0030] During the monitoring process of the gate opening state, the gate disc 1 rotates to hoist the machine to start the operation, and at the same time, the seat-type brake positive pressure sensor 5 monitors the brake positive pressure F1. When the brake positive pressure F1≠0, the gate application fault is diagnosed, and an alarm is given in time and the safety brake is activated. After the fault is eliminated, the machine is allowed to start the operation again.

[0031] During the braking process, after the oil pressure drops from the open state to the residual oil pressure, the disc spring force generated by the compression and deformation of the disc spring group 10 overcomes the residual oil pressure acting on the piston 13 and the combined force of the friction forces around to push the brake shoe 2 to the right and press the brake disc 1, thus achieving the closing brake;

[0032] During the monitoring process before the brake is opened after the brake is finished, the seat-type brake positive pressure sensor 5 monitors the brake positive pressure F1. If the brake positive pressure F1 is greater than or equal to the allowable value of the brake positive pressure, the next start is allowed; if the brake positive pressure F1 is less than the allowable value of the brake positive pressure, the brake positive pressure is insufficient, and an alarm is sounded and the next start is locked. The gate can be opened after the hidden danger of the fault is eliminated;

[0033] The above process is repeated to complete the real-time monitoring of the brake positive pressure F1 and achieve reliable operation of the disc brake.

[0034] The allowable value of the braking positive pressure is as follows: according to Article 426 of the Coal Safety Regulations, the ratio of the braking torque generated by the braking device to the actual maximum load rotational torque of the lifting device shall not be less than 3. The braking torque shall be equal to 3 times the actual maximum load rotational torque of the lifting device. The braking torque divided by the friction coefficient and the braking radius is the allowable value of the braking positive pressure.
