[0002] In the existing technology, the automobile braking system, as a key technology to ensure driving safety, has undergone an evolution from mechanical braking to hydraulic and electronic braking. Early mechanical braking relied on manual operation, with slow response and limited power; the subsequent introduction of the hydraulic braking system improved the braking response speed and stability through hydraulic transmission. At present, electronically controlled braking systems have become the mainstream, using electronic components to achieve more precise and rapid braking control, and integrating kinetic energy recovery functions into new energy vehicle models to improve energy efficiency.
[0003] However, the automotive braking system still faces some existing defects. First, the manufacturing level and material selection directly affect the reliability of the braking system. Some vehicles have safety hazards due to substandard quality. Secondly, the complex braking system structure, such as the integration of anti-lock braking system (ABS) and electronic stability program (ESP), has improved performance, but also increased the difficulty and cost of maintenance. In addition, if the braking system is not relieved in time, such as the piston rod fails to retract quickly, it may cause safety hazards and affect driving safety.

[0029] The oil inlet of the hydraulic pump 27 is connected to the liquid storage tank 36, and the overflow valve 29 is installed at the oil inlet and outlet of the hydraulic pump 27. When the oil pressure in the oil circuit of the oil outlet of the hydraulic pump 27 exceeds the pressure value set by the overflow valve 29, the high-pressure oil pumped out by the hydraulic pump 27 flows back to the liquid storage tank 36 through the overflow valve 29; the first linear solenoid valve 25 is arranged in the oil circuit below the hydraulic pump 27, and the accumulator 24 is arranged in the oil circuit below the first linear solenoid valve 25, which is responsible for providing pre-pressure to the oil circuit; the second two-position two-way solenoid valve 49 is arranged in the oil circuit below the accumulator 24, and an oil circuit is arranged in parallel between the oil inlet of the hydraulic pump 27 and the oil outlet of the second two-position two-way solenoid valve 49, and the second linear solenoid valve 26 and the first two-position two-way solenoid valve 23 are arranged in sequence in the oil circuit.

[0032] The upper end of the brake pedal arm 3 is connected to the vehicle frame 1 via the rotating shaft 2, the left end of the push rod 7 is connected to the brake pedal arm 3 via the pin shaft 4, the brake pedal 5 is installed at the lower end of the brake pedal arm 3, and a brake pedal arm return spring 6 is installed on the right side of the brake pedal arm 3;
[0033] The push rod 7 extends into the brake master cylinder 19 and is fixedly connected to the middle of the rear chamber piston 35 of the brake master cylinder. The brake master cylinder 19 is a split structure. The right side of the cylinder body of the brake master cylinder 19 is hollowed out. The cylindrical spring seat 31 is installed on both sides of the middle of the front chamber piston 33 in the cylinder, the right side of the rear chamber piston 35 and the middle of the inner wall of the right end cover 30 of the brake master cylinder. The right end cover 30 of the brake master cylinder is fixedly connected to the right end housing of the brake master cylinder 19 by bolts and a sealing ring gasket 32. Composite coil springs 34 are respectively installed in the front and rear chambers of the brake master cylinder 19.

[0035] The oil return ports of the four three-position three-way valves 20 responsible for accurately adjusting the wheel brake cylinder pressure are respectively connected to four one-way valves 21. When the vehicle is in the process of braking or releasing the brake and the position of the brake pedal 5 remains unchanged, the high-pressure oil discharged during the pressure adjustment of the wheel brake cylinder by the three-position three-way solenoid valve 20 enters the hydraulic motor 22 through the one-way valve 21, and the hydraulic motor 22 drives the generator 47 to generate electricity and transmit the electric energy to the vehicle-mounted backup power supply. The oil at the outlet of the hydraulic motor 22 flows back to the liquid storage tank 36.
[0036] Working principle of the present invention:
[0037] When the car is running normally and does not need to brake, under the action of the brake pedal arm return spring 6 and the composite coil springs 34 of the front and rear chambers of the brake master cylinder, the brake pedal 5 is in the initial position, the lower end of the first sliding arm 12 and the lower end of the second sliding arm 16 have a certain gap with the first potentiometer 15 and the second potentiometer 18, the support rod 8 is perpendicular to the push rod 7 through the pin 9 and is in the initial position, the front chamber piston 33 of the brake master cylinder and the rear chamber piston 35 of the brake master cylinder are in the initial position in the housing of the brake master cylinder 19; the first metal contact sheet 10, the second metal contact sheet 11 are not in contact with the third metal contact sheet 13 and the fourth metal contact sheet 14; the brake switch 4 6 is turned off, the motor 28 and the hydraulic pump 27 do not work, the first linear solenoid valve 25, the second linear solenoid valve 26, the first two-position two-way solenoid valve 23 and the second two-position two-way solenoid valve are all not energized; the brake fluid pressure in the vehicle brake wheel cylinder is zero, and the wheel does not generate braking force; the first linear solenoid valve 25 and the second linear solenoid valve 26 are normally closed valves; the pressure of each wheel brake cylinder is independently regulated by the three-position three-way solenoid valve 20, and the high-pressure oil discharged during the pressure regulation of the wheel brake cylinder by the three-position three-way solenoid valve 20 enters the hydraulic motor 22 through the one-way valve 21, and the hydraulic motor 22 drives the generator 47 to generate electricity and transmit the electric energy to the vehicle-mounted backup power supply. The oil at the outlet of the hydraulic motor 22 flows back to the liquid storage tank 36.
[0038] When the car needs to brake during driving, the driver steps on the brake pedal 5, the brake switch 46 is closed, the motor 28 connected to the brake switch 46 circuit is powered on, driving the hydraulic pump 27 to pump oil outward, the second two-position two-way solenoid valve 49 is powered on, and the oil enters the wheel brake cylinder together with the high-pressure oil in the accumulator 24 through the first linear solenoid valve 25; during the driver's stepping on the brake pedal, the brake pedal 5 overcomes the elastic force of the brake pedal arm return spring 6 and drives the brake pedal arm 3 to rotate around the rotating shaft 2, pushing the push rod 7 to move to the right, and the front chamber piston 33 of the brake master cylinder and the rear chamber piston 35 of the brake master cylinder are separated. The oil filling hole above the brake master cylinder 19 is closed, and the oil in the brake master cylinder 19 is transmitted to the wheel brake cylinder through the oil outlet hole below; during the rightward movement of the push rod 7, the first sliding arm 12 and the second sliding arm 16 arranged thereon are driven to move rightward. Since the position of the push rod 7 relative to the first potentiometer 15 and the second potentiometer 18 changes, the first sliding arm 12 and the second sliding arm 16 contact the first potentiometer 15 and the second potentiometer 18 during the rightward movement. Due to the inertia of the push rod 7 during the movement of the push rod 7, the support rod 8 arranged perpendicular to the push rod 7 moves rightward to contact the second sliding arm 13 at its lower end during the rightward movement of the push rod 7. The fourth metal contact piece 14 on the left side of the middle of the arm 16 is in contact, and the lead wire connected to the pin of the third metal contact piece 13 is connected to the positive terminal on the left side of the first electromagnetic coil 43. Since the right terminal of the first electromagnetic coil 43 is connected to the negative terminal of the power supply, the first electromagnetic coil 43 is energized to generate electromagnetic force, which attracts the left movable iron core 42 in the rigid straight pipe 45 to the left. At the same time, the lead wire connected to the pin of the third metal contact piece 13 is connected to the positive terminal of the first linear electromagnetic valve 25, and the negative terminal of the first linear electromagnetic valve 25 is connected to the negative terminal of the power supply. Since the third and fourth metal contact pieces 13 and 14 keep in contact at this time, the first linear The solenoid valve 25 is energized to work, the second linear solenoid valve 26 and the first two-position two-way solenoid valve 23 remain closed, the three-position three-way solenoid valve 20 is de-energized, and the left oil circuit is connected. At this time, the boost oil circuit is connected, and the high-pressure oil pumped out by the hydraulic pump 27 passes through the first linear solenoid valve 25 in combination with the accumulator 24 and the oil circuit below the oil outlet of the brake master cylinder 19 to boost the wheel brake cylinder; the more the push rod 7 moves to the right, the smaller the resistance of the second potentiometer 18 connected to the circuit, and the larger the current in the circuit at this time, the valve port opening of the first linear solenoid valve 25 is proportional to the current in the circuit, so the pressure in the oil circuit increases with the increase of the displacement of the push rod 7.
[0039] At the same time, during the braking process, the composite coil spring 34 in the front and rear cavities of the brake master cylinder and the brake pedal arm return spring 6 work together to act as a pedal feel simulator. The greater the displacement of the brake pedal 5 during braking, the greater the resistance of the composite coil spring 34 and the stronger the pedal feel.
[0040] During the braking process of the automobile, when the position of the brake pedal 5 remains unchanged, the brake switch 46 is closed, the motor 28 connected to the brake switch 46 circuit continues to work, the second two-position two-way solenoid valve 49 remains energized, and the hydraulic pump 27 pumps oil outward. When the oil pressure in the oil circuit exceeds the pressure value set by the relief valve 29, the high-pressure oil pumped out by the hydraulic pump 27 flows back to the oil inlet of the hydraulic pump 27 through the relief valve 29, and the push rod 7 and the first sliding arm 12 and the second sliding arm 16 fixed thereon remain in the same position; under the elastic force of the first balance spring 44 in the rigid straight pipe 45, the left movable iron core 42 drives the support rod 8 to move to the initial position. At this time, the third metal contact piece 13 at the lower end of the support rod 8 is separated from the fourth metal contact piece 14 on the left side of the middle part of the second sliding arm 16, and the circuit is broken. Valve 25 is powered off, and the second two-position two-way solenoid valve 49 remains powered on, and the oil circuit pressure is provided by the accumulator 24; when the push rod 7 remains in place, that is, the second metal contact pieces 11 and the third metal contact pieces 13 on the left and right sides of the lower end of the support rod 8 do not contact the first metal contact pieces 10 and the fourth metal contact pieces 14 on the first sliding arm 12 and the second sliding arm 16 on the left and right sides, the first two-position two-way solenoid valve 23 and the second linear solenoid valve 26 are both powered off, and the oil circuit forms a pressure-maintaining state. The pressure of each wheel brake cylinder is independently adjusted by the three-position three-way solenoid valve 20. The high-pressure oil discharged during the pressure adjustment process of the three-position three-way solenoid valve 20 on the wheel brake cylinder enters the hydraulic motor 22 through the one-way valve 21, and the hydraulic motor 22 drives the generator 47 to generate electricity and transmit the electric energy to the vehicle-mounted backup power supply. The oil at the outlet of the hydraulic motor 22 flows back to the liquid storage tank 36.
[0041] When the brake pedal 5 is released and the brake pedal 5 is not completely reset, the brake switch 46 remains closed, the motor 28 connected to the brake switch 46 circuit continues to work, the hydraulic pump 27 pumps oil outward, and the second two-position two-way solenoid valve 49 loses power. When the oil pressure in the oil circuit exceeds the pressure value set by the relief valve 29, the high-pressure oil pumped out by the hydraulic pump 27 flows back to the oil inlet of the hydraulic pump 27 through the relief valve 29. Under the action of the brake pedal arm return spring 6 and the composite coil spring 34 in the front and rear cavities of the brake master cylinder, the push rod 7 moves to the left. At this time, due to the inertia of the push rod 7 during the reset process, the lower end of the support rod 8 moves to the left, and the first metal contact piece 10 on the right side of the middle of the first sliding arm 12 contacts the second metal contact piece 11 on the left side of the lower end of the support rod 8. The pin of the second metal contact piece 11 is connected to the positive terminal of the right end of the second electromagnetic coil 38 through a wire, and the negative terminal on the left side of the second electromagnetic coil 38 is connected to the negative pole of the power supply. Under the action of the electromagnetic force of the second electromagnetic coil 38, the right movable iron core 42 is pressed. The second balance spring 37 is forced to move rightward, and the pin of the second metal contact piece 11 is connected to the positive terminal of the second linear solenoid valve 26. The second linear solenoid valve 26 is powered on and works. The negative terminal of the second linear solenoid valve 26 is connected to the negative terminal of the power supply. As the displacement of the brake pedal 5 decreases, the resistance of the first potentiometer 15 connected to the circuit becomes smaller, the coil current of the second linear solenoid valve 26 increases, and the valve opening increases. At the same time, the first two-position two-way solenoid valve 23 is powered on and turned on, the first linear solenoid valve 25 remains off due to power failure, the three-position three-way solenoid valve 20 is powered off, and the left position oil circuit is connected. At this time, the pressure reducing oil circuit is connected, and the wheel brake cylinder oil flows back to the liquid storage tank 36 through the three-position three-way solenoid valve 20, the first two-position two-way solenoid valve 23 and the second linear solenoid valve 26; the more the push rod 7 moves to the left, the smaller the resistance of the first potentiometer 15 connected to the circuit, and the larger the current in the circuit, the valve opening of the second linear solenoid valve 26 is proportional to the current in the circuit, so the high-pressure oil reflux is accelerated, and the wheel brake is quickly released.
[0042] During the process of reducing the braking of the automobile, if the position of the brake pedal 5 remains unchanged, the brake switch 46 is closed, the motor 28 connected to the brake switch 46 circuit continues to work, the hydraulic pump 27 pumps oil outward, and the second two-position two-way solenoid valve 49 is energized and turned on. When the oil pressure in the oil circuit exceeds the pressure value set by the relief valve 29, the high-pressure oil pumped out by the hydraulic pump 27 flows back to the oil inlet of the hydraulic pump 27 through the relief valve 29, and the push rod 7 and the first sliding arm 12 and the second sliding arm 16 fixed thereon remain in the same position; under the elastic force of the second balance spring 37 in the rigid straight pipe 45, the right movable iron core 42 drives the support rod 8 to move to the initial position. At this time, the lower end of the support rod 8 The second metal contact piece 11 is separated from the first metal contact piece 10 on the right side of the middle of the first sliding arm 12, and the circuit is broken. The second linear solenoid valve 26 and the first two-position two-way solenoid valve 23 are both de-energized, and the first linear solenoid valve 25 remains de-energized. Since the second two-position two-way solenoid valve 49 is energized and connected, the oil circuit pressure is provided by the accumulator 24 at this time, and the pressure is maintained. The pressure of each wheel brake cylinder is independently adjusted by the three-position three-way solenoid valve 20. The high-pressure oil discharged during the pressure adjustment process of the three-position three-way solenoid valve 20 on the wheel brake cylinder enters the hydraulic motor 22 through the one-way valve 21, and the hydraulic motor 22 drives the generator 47 to generate electricity and transmit the electric energy to the vehicle-mounted backup power supply. The oil at the outlet of the hydraulic motor 22 flows back to the liquid storage tank 36.
