Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of vehicle brakes, and in particular to a brake. Background Art

[0002] The disc brake devices commonly used in current vehicle braking systems primarily consist of a fixed seat, brake pads, and a spring assembly as their core functional components. The fixed seat serves as a structural support, carrying and guiding the motion of other components. The brake pads generate braking torque by applying pressure to the surface of the brake disc. The specially designed spring assembly performs a critical return function, providing the necessary mechanical rebound force after hydraulic pressure is released, prompting the brake pads to promptly detach from the brake disc surface. The spring assembly is also positioned between the fixed seat and the brake pad to secure their relative position. Under standard operating conditions, this structure maintains a working clearance between the brake pad and the brake disc that meets design specifications through the preset deformation recovery characteristics of the spring assembly, ensuring basic responsiveness during routine braking operations.

[0003] However, the brake pad may vibrate or even shift during vehicle driving. At this time, a spring assembly is needed to fix the relative position of the brake pad and the fixed seat body to prevent the relative position of the fixed seat body and the brake pad from shifting, while also having a certain shock-absorbing effect to prevent affecting the braking process.

When the braking operation is implemented to cause the brake to enter the second state, the force acting on the first brake pad causes the fifth abutting portion and the engaging unit to deform, wherein the maximum displacement of the engaging unit near the first abutting portion is greater than the maximum displacement of the fifth abutting portion. This difference in deformation allows the fifth abutting portion to accumulate greater elastic potential energy during the force application process, suppressing the vibration and displacement of the first brake pad under continuous braking or emergency braking conditions, maintaining the stability of the relative position between the fixed seat and the first brake pad, and ensuring a smooth and reliable braking process.

[0035] In a vehicle braking system, vibration and deflection occur during brake operation, requiring the spring assembly 20 to dampen the brake pads. This places high demands on the damping capacity of the brake assembly 10. Excessive brake vibration during braking can cause deflection between the first brake pad 12 and the brake disc, increasing wear and tear, and ultimately impacting brake life and driving safety.

[0036] Embodiment 1: This embodiment discloses a brake, such as Figure 4 As shown, the brake includes a brake assembly 10 and a spring assembly 20. The brake assembly 10 includes a fixed seat body 11, a first brake pad 12 and a first groove 14. The first groove 14 is provided on the fixed seat body 11. The first brake pad 12 partially extends into the first groove 14.

[0037] The spring assembly 20 includes a snap-fit ​​unit 21 and a contact unit 22. The snap-fit ​​unit 21 contacts the fixed seat 11. Figure 5 As shown, the abutment unit 22 includes a first abutment portion 221, a second abutment portion 222, a third abutment portion 223, a fourth abutment portion 224, and a fifth abutment portion 225. The engaging unit 21, the first abutment portion 221, the second abutment portion 222, the third abutment portion 223, the fourth abutment portion 224, and the fifth abutment portion 225 are fixedly connected in sequence. Portions of the engaging unit 21, the first abutment portion 221, the second abutment portion 222, the third abutment portion 223, and the fourth abutment portion 224 are respectively disposed within the first groove 14. One side of the first brake pad 12 abuts against the side of the engaging unit 21 near the fifth abutment portion 225. The other side of the first brake pad 12 abuts against the fifth abutment portion 225.

[0038] The brake includes a first state and a second state. In the first state, the portion of the locking unit 21 near one end of the first abutting portion 221 abuts against the first groove 14, and the fifth abutting portion 225 abuts against the first brake pad 12 and is spaced apart from the first groove 14, so that the first brake pad 12 and the fixed seat body 11 have a certain relative displacement, which has a shock-absorbing effect during the use of the first brake pad 12. In the second state, the first brake pad 12 is subjected to an action force, causing the fifth abutting portion 225 and the locking unit 21 to deform. At this time, due to the relative displacement between the first brake pad 12 and the first groove 14, the deformation of the fifth abutting portion 225 and the locking unit 21 is required to provide a rebound force to prevent the first brake pad 12 from detaching from the first groove 14. In the second state, the maximum displacement of the side of the locking unit 21 near the first abutting portion 221 is greater than the maximum displacement of the fifth abutting portion 225. When the force applied is low, the fifth abutting portion 225 is located outside the space enclosed by the first groove 14. At this time, the side of the engaging unit 21 closest to the first abutting portion 221 deforms, allowing the first groove 14 to support the first brake pad 12 via the side of the engaging unit 21 closest to the first abutting portion 221, thereby fixing the relative position of the first brake pad 12 and the first groove 14. The maximum displacement of the side of the engaging unit 21 closest to the first abutting portion 221 is greater than the maximum displacement of the fifth abutting portion 225, preventing the first brake pad 12 from deforming excessively toward the side closest to the fifth abutting portion 225, which could result in excessive relative displacement between the first brake pad 12 and the first groove 14.

[0039] Furthermore, the first brake pad 12 includes a first brake body 121 and a first sliding body 122. The first brake body 121 and the first sliding body 122 are fixedly connected. One side of the first sliding body 122 abuts against the side of the engaging unit 21 near the fifth abutting portion 225, and the other side abuts against the fifth abutting portion 225.

[0040] like Figure 1As shown, A < B. Wherein, A is the distance between the space surrounded by the first groove 14 and the fifth abutting portion 225, B is the distance between the fifth abutting portion 225 and the first brake pad 12. By setting the distance A < B, the length of the force arm when the spring sheet assembly 20 is deformed is shorter, so that when the first brake pad 12 vibrates downward, the relative displacement angle of the third abutting portion 223 and the fourth abutting portion 224 is smaller, achieving the effect of reducing vibration and impact noise, and preventing the force arm from being too long and causing fatigue after long-term use.

[0041] Further, the first state further includes that the second abutting portion 222 is spaced apart from the inner wall of the first groove 14 on the side away from the first brake pad 12. The spacing of the second abutting portion 222 from the inner wall of the first groove 14 in the first state can reduce the contact area, achieving the effect of reducing resonance. The second state further includes that the second abutting portion 222 abuts the inner wall of the first groove 14 on the side away from the first brake pad 12. The abutment of the second abutting portion 222 with the inner wall of the first groove 14 in the second state can provide additional rebound force to help the brake cope with high pressure load.

[0042] Preferably, the elastic coefficient of the fifth abutting portion 225 is greater than the elastic coefficient of the second abutting portion 222. By making the elastic coefficient of the fifth abutting portion 225 greater than the elastic coefficient of the second abutting portion 222, the fifth abutting portion 225 can provide greater rebound force to the brake. At the same time, the smaller elastic coefficient of the second abutting portion 222 makes it easier to deform, so that the second abutting portion 222 can respond faster when the state of the spring sheet assembly 20 changes.

[0043] Further, the spring sheet assembly 20 further includes a rebound unit 23. One end of the rebound unit 23 is fixedly connected with the third abutting portion 223, and the other end abuts one side of the first brake pad 12 in the thickness direction. The fixed connection of the rebound unit 23 with the third abutting portion 223 and the abutment with the first brake pad 12 can form an elastic support structure, providing additional rebound force to help the brake reset after being stressed.

[0044] Further, as shown in FIG. 6, the spring sheet assembly 20 further includes a rebound unit 23. One end of the rebound unit 23 is fixedly connected with the third abutting portion 223, and the other end abuts one side of the first brake pad 12 in the thickness direction. The fixed connection of the rebound unit 23 with the third abutting portion 223 and the abutment with the first brake pad 12 can form an elastic support structure, providing additional rebound force to help the brake reset after being stressed. Figure 6As shown, the rebound unit 23 includes a first section 231, a second section 232, a third section 233, and a fourth section 234. The first section 231 is connected to the third abutting portion 223, and the other end extends in the thickness direction of the first brake pad 12 in a direction away from the third abutting portion 223. The second section 232 is configured as an arc-shaped piece. One end of the second section 232 extends from the first section 231 in the direction of the first brake pad 12 away from the third abutting portion 223. One end of the third section 233 is connected to the end of the second section 232 close to the first brake pad 12, and the other end extends to abut against one side of the first brake pad 12 in the thickness direction. One end of the fourth section 234 is connected to the end of the third section 233 close to the first brake pad 12, and the other end extends in a direction away from the third abutting portion 223. The arrangement of the first section 231, the second section 232, the third section 233 and the fourth section 234 can form a multi-section elastic structure. At the same time, the design of the rebound unit 23 makes the connection between the spring assembly 20 and the fixed seat body 11 more secure, preventing the spring assembly 20 from relative displacement during the operation of the brake. At the same time, the deformation of the fourth section 234 provides a rebound force for the first sliding body 122, thereby helping the first brake pad 12 to reset during the braking process.

[0045] Preferably, if Figure 2 As shown, the brake assembly 10 further includes a second brake pad 13 and a second groove 15. Figure 3 As shown, first brake pad 12 and second brake pad 13 are spaced apart. Second groove 15 is provided on fixed base body 11. Second brake pad 13 partially extends into second groove 15. By providing second brake pad 13 and second groove 15, braking force can be provided simultaneously by first brake pad 12 and second brake pad 13 during vehicle braking, increasing the braking contact area and achieving better braking effect.

[0046] The spring assembly 20 also includes a locking unit 21 and an abutting unit 22. Portions of the locking unit 21, the first abutting portion 221, the second abutting portion 222, the third abutting portion 223, and the fourth abutting portion 224 are respectively disposed within the second groove 15. One side of the second brake pad 13 abuts against the side of the locking unit 21 near the fifth abutting portion 225 within the second groove 15, and the other side abuts against the fifth abutting portion 225 within the second groove 15.

[0047] The brake includes a third state and a fourth state. In the third state, the portion of the engaging unit 21 in the second groove 15 near one end of the first abutting portion 221 abuts against the second groove 15, and the fifth abutting portion 225 in the second groove 15 abuts against the first brake pad 12 and is spaced apart from the second groove 15, so that the second brake pad 13 and the fixed seat body 11 have a certain relative displacement, which has a shock-absorbing effect during the use of the second brake pad 13. In the fourth state, the second brake pad 13 is subjected to an applied force, causing the fifth abutting portion 225 in the second groove 15 and the engaging unit 21 to deform. At this time, due to the relative displacement between the second brake pad 13 and the second groove 15, the deformation of the fifth abutting portion 225 and the engaging unit 21 is required to provide a rebound force to prevent the second brake pad 13 from disengaging from the second groove 15. In the fourth state, the maximum displacement of the side of the engaging unit 21 near the first abutting portion 221 is greater than the maximum displacement of the fifth abutting portion 225. When the fifth abutting portion 225 is subjected to a relatively small force, it is located outside the space enclosed by the second groove 15. At this time, the side of the engaging unit 21 near the first abutting portion 221 deforms, allowing the second groove 15 to support the second brake pad 13 via the side of the engaging unit 21 near the first abutting portion 221, thereby fixing the relative position of the second brake pad 13 and the second groove 15. The maximum displacement of the side of the engaging unit 21 near the first abutting portion 221 is greater than the maximum displacement of the fifth abutting portion 225, preventing the second brake pad 13 from deforming excessively toward the side near the fifth abutting portion 225, which would result in excessive relative displacement between the second brake pad 13 and the second groove 15.

[0048] Furthermore, if Figure 7 As shown, the engaging unit 21 includes a second engaging portion 212 , a third engaging portion 213 , and a fourth engaging portion 214 .

[0049] A second engaging portion 212, a third engaging portion 213, a fourth engaging portion 214, and a first abutting portion 221 are sequentially fixedly connected. One second engaging portion 212 abuts against a portion of the fixed base body 11 near the first groove 14, and the other second engaging portion 212 abuts against a portion of the fixed base body 11 near the second groove 15. This allows a portion of the fixed base body 11 to be disposed between the second engaging portion 212 and the fourth engaging portion 214 and to be clamped by the second engaging portion 212 and the fourth engaging portion 214, thereby further strengthening the connection between the fixed base body 11 and the spring assembly 20.

[0050] The first state also includes a portion of the fourth engaging portion 214 within the first groove 14 abutting against the first groove 14, at which point the fourth engaging portion 214 deforms to fix the relative position of the first brake pad 12 to the first groove 14. The second state also includes a portion of the fourth engaging portion 214 within the first groove 14 abutting against the first groove 14, at which point the fourth engaging portion 214 deforms to fix the relative position of the first brake pad 12 to the first groove 14. The third state also includes a portion of the fourth engaging portion 214 within the second groove 15 abutting against the second groove 15, at which point the fourth engaging portion 214 deforms to fix the relative position of the second brake pad 13 to the second groove 15. The fourth state also includes a portion of the fourth engaging portion 214 within the second groove 15 abutting against the second groove 15, at which point the fourth engaging portion 214 deforms to fix the relative position of the second brake pad 13 to the second groove 15. In the second state, the maximum displacement of the fourth engaging portion 214 is greater than the maximum displacement of the fifth abutting portion 225. When the fifth abutting portion 225 is subjected to a relatively low force, it is located outside the space enclosed by the first groove 14. At this time, the fourth engaging portion 214 deforms, allowing the first groove 14 to support the first brake pad 12 via the fourth engaging portion 214, thereby fixing the relative position of the first brake pad 12 and the first groove 14. The maximum displacement of the fourth engaging portion 214 is greater than the maximum displacement of the fifth abutting portion 225, preventing the first brake pad 12 from deforming excessively toward the side closer to the fifth abutting portion 225, which would result in excessive relative displacement between the first brake pad 12 and the first groove 14. In the fourth state, the maximum displacement of the fourth engaging portion 214 is greater than the maximum displacement of the fifth abutting portion 225. When subjected to low force, the fifth abutting portion 225 is located outside the space enclosed by the second groove 15. At this time, the fourth engaging portion 214 deforms, allowing the second groove 15 to support the second brake pad 13 via the fourth engaging portion 214, thereby fixing the relative position of the second brake pad 13 and the second groove 15. The maximum displacement of the fourth engaging portion 214 is greater than the maximum displacement of the fifth abutting portion 225, preventing the second brake pad 13 from deforming excessively toward the side closest to the fifth abutting portion 225, which could result in excessive relative displacement between the second brake pad 13 and the second groove 15.

[0051] Preferably, the locking unit 21 also includes a first locking portion 211. One end of the first locking portion 211 is fixedly connected to one end of the second locking portion 212. The two first locking portions 211 are connected away from one end of the second locking portion 212. By providing the first locking portion 211, the locking unit 21 can be more tightly engaged with the fixed seat body 11, while reducing the deformation of the second locking portion 212 and providing a more stable locking effect. When the rebound unit 23 drives the first friction plate and the second friction plate to move closer to each other, the rebound unit 23 will generate a force moving away from each other, and the two first locking portions 211 are connected away from one end of the second locking portion 212 to prevent the locking unit 21 from moving due to the mutual approach of the first friction plate and the second friction plate.

[0052] Furthermore, the second brake pad 13 includes a second brake body 131 and a second sliding body 132. The second brake body 131 and the second sliding body 132 are fixedly connected. One side of the second sliding body 132 abuts against the side of the engaging unit 21 near the fifth abutting portion 225, and the other side of the second sliding body abuts against the fifth abutting portion 225.

[0053] like Figure 2 As shown, C < D. Here, C is the distance between the space enclosed by the second groove 15 and the adjacent fifth abutting portion 225, and D is the distance between the fifth abutting portion 225 and the adjacent second brake pad 13. By setting the spacing C < D, the lever arm length during deformation of the spring assembly 20 is shortened. This reduces the relative displacement angle between the third abutting portion 223 and the fourth abutting portion 224 when the second brake pad 13 vibrates downward, thereby reducing vibration and impact noise, and preventing fatigue caused by an excessively long lever arm after prolonged use.

[0054] Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the above-mentioned embodiments are specific examples for implementing the present disclosure, and that in actual applications, various changes may be made thereto in form and detail without departing from the scope of the present disclosure.
