Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a brake, and more particularly to a brake for a traction machine. Background Technology
[0002] In conventional brakes, the stator coil holder is machined from thick steel plate to create coil slots. To meet the requirements of electromagnetic force, the coil slots are relatively deep. Moreover, to improve the utilization rate of the coil (copper wire), annular coil slots are generally used, which makes the machining difficult. Ordinary steel plates have high eddy current losses and are prone to magnetic saturation due to high magnetic resistance, resulting in large magnetic losses. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the area of the coil holder to increase the magnetic pole area to ensure sufficient electromagnetic force. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a brake with excellent braking performance.
[0004] The objective of this invention is achieved as follows.
[0005] A brake includes a brake coil seat, a brake spring, an armature, a brake shoe seat, and friction pads mounted on the brake shoe seat. The brake shoe seat is fixed on the armature. The brake coil seat includes a magnetic yoke, an outer magnetic pole core, and an inner magnetic pole core. The outer magnetic pole core and the inner magnetic pole core are respectively fixed on the side of the magnetic yoke facing the armature. Both the inner magnetic pole core and the outer magnetic pole core are formed by stacking several magnetic conductive sheets.
[0006] The above technical solution can be further improved as follows.
[0007] In a more specific design, the inner magnetic pole core is located inside the outer magnetic pole core, and the space between the inner and outer magnetic pole cores forms a coil slot for placing the coil. The width of the coil slot is uniformly set.
[0008] More specifically, the cross-sections of the outer and inner magnetic pole cores are rectangular, circular, or elliptical, and the cross-section of the coil slots is circular or elliptical.
[0009] In a more specific solution, the magnetic conductive sheet is formed by stamping silicon steel or thin steel plate, which reduces eddy current loss, lowers magnetic resistance, and improves material utilization and electromagnetic performance.
[0010] A more specific solution involves eliminating the coil slots on the magnetic yoke and using a steel plate instead, which reduces processing difficulty, simplifies the process, and lowers processing costs.
[0011] In a more specific design, the brake spring is installed within the spring hole of the magnetic yoke. Guide holes are provided on both the outer and inner magnetic pole cores. The brake spring passes through these guide holes and abuts against the armature. These guide holes enhance the stability of the brake spring. The spring force acts on both the magnetic yoke and the armature, while the magnetic yoke is not affected by the spring force, ensuring the brake's stiffness and reliable, stable braking torque. When the brake is operating, the spring force is applied to the magnetic yoke, and the yoke's stiffness guarantees the stability of the braking force.
[0012] A more specific design includes pre-drilled holes on both the outer and inner magnetic pole cores, a hollow threaded sleeve connected to the yoke by a threaded connection, and a sliding sleeve on the armature. The hollow threaded sleeve passes through the pre-drilled holes and the sliding sleeve, allowing the armature to slide freely along the hollow threaded sleeve. An installation bolt for connection to the traction machine is located inside the hollow threaded sleeve. The brake operates without jamming.
[0013] In a more specific design, the outer magnetic pole core and the yoke are evenly connected and fixed by several locking bolts. The yoke has a stepped hole on its side facing the armature, and the corresponding outer magnetic pole core has a first pin hole. The stepped locking bolt passes through the first pin hole and the stepped hole and is threaded into a locking nut. The locking bolt and the stepped hole contact each other through the stepped surface. The end face of the locking bolt head is flat and protrudes from the outer magnetic pole core. There is a gap between the end face of the locking bolt head and the armature. By controlling the gap between the end face of the locking bolt head and the armature, the air gap uniformity of the brake is adjusted, preventing deformation of the outer magnetic pole core and ensuring consistent gap.
[0014] In a more specific design, the armature has a countersunk groove corresponding to the head of the locking bolt, with a gap between the bottom of the countersunk groove and the end face of the locking bolt head. By controlling the depth of the countersunk groove and the flatness and thickness of the end face of the locking bolt head, the gap is controlled, and after normal gap adjustment, the gap at the four corners of the brake can be ensured to be uniform.
[0015] A more specific design includes clearance holes for both the outer and inner magnetic pole cores, with damping pads installed within these holes. A positioning screw hole is provided corresponding to each clearance hole on the yoke. The tail of a fixing screw passes through the nut and the positioning screw hole, extending into the clearance hole. The tail of the fixing screw abuts against one end face of the damping pad, while the other end face of the damping pad extends out of the clearance hole and abuts against the armature. The position of the damping pad is adjusted using the fixing screw to ensure stable brake noise performance.
[0016] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows.
[0017] The magnetic pole cores of the brake of this invention are laminated, which reduces eddy current losses, lowers magnetic reluctance, and reduces magnetic losses. The air gap between the control coil holder and the armature is easy to control, and there are no coil slots on the magnetic yoke, reducing processing difficulty, simplifying the process, and lowering manufacturing costs. Both the inner and outer magnetic pole cores are stamped and laminated from silicon steel or thin steel plates, making manufacturing easy, reducing eddy current losses, lowering magnetic reluctance, improving material utilization and electromagnetic performance, and resulting in excellent overall braking performance.

[0024] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0025] Example 1, see Figures 1-6 As shown, a brake includes a brake coil seat 1, a brake spring 5, an armature 6, a brake shoe seat 61, and a friction plate 62 mounted on the brake shoe seat 61. The brake coil seat 1 includes a magnetic yoke 2, an outer magnetic pole core 3, and an inner magnetic pole core 4. The inner magnetic pole core 4 and the outer magnetic pole core 3 are mounted on the magnetic yoke 2, with the inner magnetic pole core 4 located inside the outer magnetic pole core 3. The space between the inner magnetic pole core 4 and the outer magnetic pole core 3 forms a coil slot 10 for placing the coil. The width of the coil slot 10 is uniformly distributed, meaning that the width is equal in most positions and varies in a very small number of positions.
[0026] Both the inner magnetic pole core 4 and the outer magnetic pole core 3 are formed by stamping and stacking several magnetically conductive sheets. Preferably, the magnetically conductive sheets are made of silicon steel or thin steel plates (i.e., steel plates with a thickness of less than 1 mm, typically 0.5 mm to 1 mm). The cross-sections of the outer contours of the outer magnetic pole core 3 and the inner magnetic pole core 4 are rectangular, circular, or elliptical, etc., and the coil slots 10 can be circular or elliptical, etc. The magnetic yoke 2 is made of ordinary steel plate, eliminating the need for machining the coil slots 10 for placing the coils, thus reducing machining difficulty, simplifying the process, and lowering machining costs.
[0027] Specifically, the magnetic yoke 2 has a stepped hole 21 on the side facing the armature 6, and the corresponding outer magnetic pole core 3 has a first pin hole 31. The stepped locking bolt 11 passes through the first pin hole 31 and the stepped hole 21 and is threadedly connected to the locking nut 12. The locking bolt 11 and the stepped hole 21 are in contact through the stepped surface. The end face of the locking bolt 11 head is flat and protrudes from the outer magnetic pole core 3. The armature 6 has a countersunk groove 60 corresponding to the head of the locking bolt 11. The gap δ is left between the bottom surface of the countersunk groove 60 and the end face of the head of the locking bolt 11. The inner magnetic pole core 4 is fixed to the magnetic yoke 2 by a reamed hole screw 13. By adjusting and controlling the depth of the countersunk groove 60 and the flatness and thickness of the end face of the locking bolt 11 head, the gap δ is controlled. After normal gap adjustment, the gap δ at the four corners of the brake can be made uniform.
[0028] The outer magnetic pole core 3 and the inner magnetic pole core 4 are respectively provided with a reserved hole 14 and a clearance through hole 15. The magnetic yoke 2 is threadedly connected to a hollow threaded sleeve 7, and the armature 6 is provided with a sliding sleeve 63. The hollow threaded sleeve 7 passes through the reserved hole 14 and the sliding sleeve 63, and the armature 6 slides freely along the hollow threaded sleeve 7. The hollow threaded sleeve 7 is provided with a mounting bolt 8 for connection with the traction machine. That is, the mounting bolt 8 passes through the hollow threaded sleeve 7 to install the brake on the traction machine.
[0029] A shock-absorbing pad 16 is provided inside the clearance through hole 15. The magnetic yoke 2 is provided with a positioning screw hole 22 corresponding to the clearance through hole 15. The tail of the fixing screw 9 passes through the nut 17 and the positioning screw hole 22 and extends into the clearance through hole 15. The tail of the fixing screw 9 abuts against one end face of the shock-absorbing pad 16, and the other end face of the shock-absorbing pad 16 extends out of the clearance through hole 15 and abuts against the armature 6.
[0030] The brake spring 5 is installed in the spring hole 23 of the magnetic yoke 2. Both the magnetic pole core and the outer magnetic pole core 3 are provided with guide holes 18. After passing through the corresponding guide holes 18, the brake spring 5 abuts against the armature 6.
[0031] Friction pad 62 is attached to brake shoe seat 61. Brake shoe seat 61 assembly is fixed to armature 6 by screws and pins. When the brake is working, the spring force of brake spring 5 pushes armature 6 and brake shoe seat 61 assembly fixed thereon toward brake wheel. Friction pad 62 attached to brake shoe seat 61 rubs against brake wheel to provide braking torque.
