Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of automobile braking systems and relates to a braking system, a double-wheel steering drive axle and an automobile. Background Art
[0002] The existing dual-wheel drive axles are equipped with brakes arranged separately on the left and right wheels. The brake air pressure or brake oil pressure is distributed to the brake cylinders through the brake pedal, the master brake cylinder and the brake pipe. The brake cylinders apply force to the brake disc friction lining or the brake drum brake shoe to produce a braking effect on the brake disc or the brake drum. The ABS needs to calculate the slip rate of the left and right wheel tires to distribute the braking force of the left and right brakes. However, this type of traditional mechanical brake has a complex structure and requires an air compressor or a vacuum booster pump. The whole mechanism occupies a large space and does not have the function of applying different braking forces to each of the four wheels (two rigidly assembled wheels on the left and right sides).
[0003] The existing EMB braking system uses an electric motor without air pressure and hydraulic transmission to drive a set of reduction gears and a worm gear transmission system to directly act on the brake disc. This type of braking system has a simplified structure and occupies less space. However, the corresponding dual-wheel drive rear axle is a rigidly assembled dual-wheel structure, which cannot achieve the braking of each of the dual wheels on the same side separately.

The first caliper body 41 is slidably connected to the first guide pin shaft 45. On the first caliper body bracket 44, the first thrust mechanism 46 is arranged on the first caliper body 41, the outer end of the first thrust mechanism 46 is connected to the first inner friction plate 43, and the inner end of the first thrust mechanism 46 protrudes from the first caliper body 41; the first electric cam mechanism 47 is used to push the inner end of the first thrust mechanism 46, so that the first thrust mechanism 46 pushes the first inner friction plate 43 to move outward and press against the inner surface of the first brake disc 9 and maintain it, and the first electric cam mechanism 47 continues to apply a force so that the first thrust mechanism 46 generates a reverse hydraulic force to drive the first caliper body 41 to move inward until the first outer friction plate 42 is pressed against the outer surface of the first brake disc 9.

[0053] The electric cam mechanism of the present invention can automatically control the lift of the brake cam and the clamping force of the friction plate on the brake disc according to the depth of the brake pedal to generate different braking forces. The entire mechanism has a simple and reliable structure and occupies very little space.
[0054] In one embodiment, if Figures 4 to 5 As shown, the second brake 7 includes a second brake caliper and a second brake disc 10 fixed on the inner wheel.
[0055] The second brake caliper includes a second caliper body 71, a second outer friction plate 72, a second inner friction plate 73, a second caliper body bracket 74, a second guide pin shaft 75, a second thrust mechanism 76 and a second electric cam mechanism 77.

The second brake disc 10 is located between the second outer friction plate 72 and the second inner friction plate 73. The second caliper body bracket 74 is fixed to the vehicle body. The second caliper body 71 is slidably connected to the vehicle body through the second guide pin shaft 75. The second thrust mechanism 76 is connected to the second caliper body bracket 74, and is arranged on the second caliper body 71. The outer end of the second thrust mechanism 76 is connected to the second outer friction plate 72, and the outer end of the second thrust mechanism 76 protrudes from the second caliper body 71; the second electric cam mechanism 77 is used to push the outer end of the second thrust mechanism 76, so that the second thrust mechanism 76 pushes the second outer friction plate 72 to move inward and presses and maintains the outer surface of the second brake disc 10, and the second electric cam mechanism 77 continues to apply a force so that the second thrust mechanism 76 generates a reverse force to drive the second caliper body 71 to move outward until the second inner friction plate 73 is pressed against the inner surface of the second brake disc 10.

The entire mechanism has a simple and reliable structure and occupies very little space. During the deceleration and braking process, on the one hand, when the brake pedal is stepped on, the motor of the electric cam mechanism (the first electric cam mechanism 47 and / or the second electric cam mechanism 77) rotates, driving the respective cams to rotate, pushing the respective inner and outer friction plates to move, clamping the respective brake discs, and generating braking forces. The magnitude of the braking force is calculated according to the slip rate of each wheel by the ABS, thereby controlling the stroke of the cam, and applying different appropriate optimal braking forces to the brake disc corresponding to each wheel. On the other hand, the first drive motor and the second drive motor can also generate appropriate reverse braking forces of the drive motor according to the braking feedback power generation strategy of the whole vehicle, so that the whole vehicle can complete deceleration and parking braking. The electric brake cam is used as the power of the brake, eliminating the entire set of air supply and storage devices such as the air compressor, which greatly reduces the cost, increases the layout space, simplifies the number of parts, and improves the reliability and durability of the vehicle's parts.
