Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0020] It should be noted that if the embodiments of the present invention involve directional indicators (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.), the directional indicators are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement of the components in a specific posture.

Thus, a feature defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of those features. Additionally, the use of "and / or" or "and / or" throughout the text includes three parallel solutions. For example, "A and / or B" includes solution A, solution B, or a solution where both A and B are satisfied simultaneously. Furthermore, the technical solutions of the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but this must be based on the ability of those skilled in the art to implement them. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or impossible to implement, it should be considered that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection claimed by this invention.

[0022] In traditional technical solutions, electric brakes consist of three parts: a lower housing, an intermediate plate, and an upper housing. Two sets of locating pins are used to position and assemble these parts. The intermediate plate's main function is to guide the rotating components of the reduction gear and provide a channel for the mechanical connection between the electric motor rotor and the reduction gear. However, using an intermediate plate to achieve a fixed connection between the rotor and the reduction gear inevitably increases the size and manufacturing cost of the electric brake.

[0023] Therefore, the present invention proposes an electric brake 100, which aims to reduce the size of the electric brake 100 and lower its manufacturing cost.

[0024] Please see Figures 1 to 3 In one embodiment of the present invention, the electric brake 100 includes: The housing 1 is provided with a first positioning groove 101; The cover 2, together with the shell 1, forms a receiving cavity 1001. The cover 2 protrudes toward the side away from the shell 1, forming a concave cavity 203 that opens toward the shell 1. The inner wall of the cover 2 is provided with a second positioning groove 201. Motor 3 is located in the accommodating cavity 1001. Motor 3 includes a rotor 31 and is provided with a first positioning hole 301. The speed reduction assembly 4 is located in the accommodating cavity 1001. The speed reduction assembly 4 includes an intermediate shaft 41 and a gear set 42 sleeved on the intermediate shaft 41. One end of the intermediate shaft 41 is located in the motor 3, and the other end extends into the cavity 203 and is positioned and engaged with the cavity 203. The gear set 42 is meshed with the rotor 31. Positioning component 5, one end of which passes through the first positioning hole 301 and is inserted into the first positioning groove 101, and the other end is inserted into the second positioning groove 201 to connect the housing 1, the cover 2 and the motor 3.

[0025] In this embodiment, the housing 1 serves as the main support structure of the electric brake 100 and can be made of metal or high-strength engineering plastic, possessing good mechanical strength and sealing performance. A first positioning groove 101 is provided on the side of the housing 1 facing the cover 2, for insertion and engagement with the positioning member 5. The shape of the first positioning groove 101 can be circular, square, or polygonal, specifically designed to match the shape of the positioning member 5.

[0026] The cover 2, as the external enclosure of the electric brake 100, forms a receiving cavity 1001 with the housing 1 to accommodate the motor 3 and the reduction gear assembly 4. The cover 2 protrudes away from its center to create a recess 203 that opens towards the center of the cover 2, used to position the end of the intermediate shaft 41. The cavity wall of the recess 203 may have a positioning mating surface to simultaneously achieve axial and radial positioning of the intermediate shaft 41. The recess 203 may be an open-mouth structure integrally formed with the cover 2. By providing the recess 203, the rotational guidance and positioning functions performed by the intermediate plate in the traditional structure can be replaced, thereby reducing the number of parts and improving the structural compactness of the electric brake 100. Furthermore, a second positioning groove 201 is provided on the inner wall of the cover 2 for insertion and mating with the positioning member 5. The shape of the second positioning groove 201 can also be circular, square, or polygonal, specifically designed to match the shape of the positioning member 5.

[0027] The motor 3 is housed in the accommodating cavity 1001 and serves as the power source for the electric brake 100. The motor 3 includes a rotor 31, which is the rotating part of the motor 3 and can be constructed from permanent magnet material and a metal support, possessing good magnetic properties and rotational inertia. The motor 3 has a first positioning hole 301, which is a through hole penetrating the end face of the motor 3. The shape of the first positioning hole 301 can match the shape of the positioning member 5, such as circular, square, or polygonal, and is not specifically limited here. The first positioning hole 301 is coaxially aligned with the first positioning groove 101 and the second positioning groove 201 to achieve an insertion fit with the positioning member 5.

[0028] The reduction gear assembly 4 is disposed within the accommodating cavity 1001 to reduce the high-speed rotation of the motor 3 and amplify the torque output. The reduction gear assembly 4 includes an intermediate shaft 41 and a gear set 42. The intermediate shaft 41 serves as the input shaft of the reduction gear assembly 4, with one end connected to the motor 3 and the other end extending into the cavity 203, where it is positioned and engaged with the cavity 203. The end of the intermediate shaft 41 may be provided with a positioning structure, such as an outer cylindrical surface or a positioning flange, which forms a tight fit with the positioning mating surface of the cavity wall of the cavity 203, thereby achieving axial and radial positioning. The gear set 42 includes a main gear and a driven gear. The main gear meshes with the driven gear, and the main gear is sleeved on the intermediate shaft 41, meshing with the rotor 31. By positioning the intermediate shaft 41 within the cavity 203, the guiding effect of the intermediate plate on the intermediate shaft 41 in the traditional structure can be eliminated, thereby reducing the size of the electric brake 100.

[0029] The positioning component 5 is a key component for achieving the integrated connection of the housing 1, cover 2, and motor 3. Its structure can be a pin-shaped or columnar connector, such as a positioning pin. The positioning component 5 can be made of metal or high-strength plastic, possessing good wear resistance and shear resistance. One end of the positioning component 5 passes through the first positioning hole 301 on the motor 3 and inserts into the first positioning groove 101 on the housing 1, while the other end inserts into the second positioning groove 201 inside the cover 2. Through this through-type connection, the positioning component 5 firmly connects the housing 1, cover 2, and motor 3 together, thus eliminating the need for two sets of positioning pins used for positioning the intermediate plate in traditional structures. This reduces the number of parts, lowers the assembly difficulty of the electric brake 100, and improves the overall structural stability and compactness.

[0030] In summary, this embodiment achieves a high degree of structural integration and functional fusion by eliminating the intermediate plate, directly positioning the end of the intermediate shaft 41 using the cavity 203, and integrating the housing 1, cover 2, and motor 3 using the positioning component 5. This not only reduces the size and manufacturing cost of the electric brake 100 but also improves its assembly efficiency and structural reliability.

[0031] Please see Figures 1 to 3In one embodiment of the present invention, the motor 3 and the intermediate shaft 41 are integrally formed.

[0032] In this embodiment, the motor 3 and the intermediate shaft 41 are integrally formed. This structure integrates the originally separate motor 3 and intermediate shaft 41 into a single component, using precision casting, powder metallurgy, or integral machining processes to form a highly integrated composite rotating shaft. This composite structure not only ensures coaxiality and transmission accuracy between the motor output and the reduction input, but also eliminates the need for splines, keyways, or interference fits required in traditional assembly, avoiding transmission errors and mechanical failures caused by loose connections or wear. Furthermore, by eliminating the connection interface between the motor 3 and the intermediate shaft 41, energy loss during transmission is reduced, improving transmission efficiency.

[0033] Please see Figures 1 to 3 In one embodiment of the present invention, the motor 3 further includes a first end cover 32, a second end cover 33, and a stator 34. The first end cover 32 and the second end cover 33 are disposed opposite to each other. One end of the stator 34 is fixed inside the first end cover 32, and the other end is fixed inside the second end cover 33. The second end cover 33 is provided with a mounting port 303. One end of the rotor 31 is wound around the inner circumference of the stator 34, and the other end extends out through the mounting port 303. The intermediate shaft 41 is disposed on the side of the second end cover 33 opposite to the first end cover 32.

[0034] In this embodiment, the motor 3 includes not only a rotor 31, but also a first end cover 32, a second end cover 33, and a stator 34. The first end cover 32 and the second end cover 33 are arranged opposite to each other and together form the outer shell structure of the motor 3. One end of the stator 34 is fixed inside the first end cover 32, and the other end is fixed inside the second end cover 33, thereby achieving axial clamping and circumferential positioning of the stator 34 and ensuring its stable installation. The rotor 31 is coaxially arranged on the inner circumference of the stator 34. One end of the rotor 31 is wound around the inner circumference space of the stator 34 to form an electromagnetic drive structure, and the other end extends outward through the mounting port 303 on the second end cover 33 so as to achieve power connection with the gear set 42 in the reduction assembly 4. The intermediate shaft 41 is arranged on the side of the second end cover 33 away from the first end cover 32. It is not directly connected to the rotor 31, but is independently installed as the bearing shaft of the gear set 42. The gear set 42 is sleeved on the intermediate shaft 41 and meshes with the extended part of the rotor 31, thereby transmitting the rotational power generated by the motor 3 to the reduction assembly 4. This structure fixes the stator 34 and rotor 31 with the first end cover 32 and the second end cover 33, which can improve the assembly accuracy and operational stability of the internal components of the motor 3. At the same time, the decoupling design of the intermediate shaft 41 and the rotor 31 avoids the centering error and stress concentration problems caused by the rigid connection between the intermediate shaft 41 and the rotor 31. This not only helps to reduce the difficulty of manufacturing and assembly, but also improves the flexibility and reliability of the electric brake 100 and extends the overall service life.

[0035] Please see Figures 1 to 3 In one embodiment of the present invention, the rotor 31 includes a motor shaft 311 and a rotor winding sleeved on the motor shaft 311. The motor shaft 311 includes a first shaft segment 3111 and a second shaft segment 3112. The first shaft segment 3111 passes through the mounting port 303 and is connected to the second shaft segment 3112. The second shaft segment 3112 is meshed with the gear set 42.

[0036] In this embodiment, the rotor 31 includes a motor shaft 311 and a rotor winding sleeved on the motor shaft 311. The motor shaft 311 is composed of a first shaft segment 3111 and a second shaft segment 3112. The first shaft segment 3111 extends outward from the inside of the rotor 31 through the mounting port 303 on the second end cover 33 and is connected to the second shaft segment 3112 located outside the motor 3. This connection can be achieved by welding, interference fit, or integrated machining to ensure the reliability of power transmission. The second shaft segment 3112 is directly meshed with the gear set 42 in the reduction assembly 4 to transmit the rotational power generated by the motor 3 to the intermediate shaft 41, thereby driving the entire gear set 42 to run.

[0037] Therefore, by designing the motor shaft 311 as a segmented structure, this embodiment can not only optimize the spatial layout of the magnetic field region inside the motor 3 and improve the electromagnetic conversion efficiency, but also enhance the structural strength and assembly flexibility of the transmission interface. At the same time, it avoids the problems of increased axial dimensions and excessively high coaxiality requirements caused by directly connecting the intermediate shaft 41 to the rotor 31. This is conducive to achieving a compact and modular design of the overall structure of the electric brake 100, improving transmission stability and maintenance convenience.

[0038] Please see Figures 1 to 3 In one embodiment of the present invention, the housing 1 is provided with a first mounting groove 102, the motor 3 is installed in the first mounting groove 102, the motor 3 is provided with a circuit board 6, the circuit board 6 is provided with a first through hole 601 for the rotor 31 to pass through and a second through hole 602 for the intermediate shaft 41 to pass through.

[0039] In this embodiment, the housing 1 is provided with a first mounting groove 102, which is located on the side of the housing 1 facing the cover 2 and is recessed, for positioning and supporting the motor 3. The motor 3 can be placed in the first mounting groove 102 to achieve quick alignment and positioning, facilitating subsequent assembly operations.

[0040] A circuit board 6 is mounted on the motor 3 and is fixedly installed at the end of the motor 3. It can be connected to the motor 3 using methods such as snap-fit, adhesive, or fasteners 7 to form an integrated structure. When the motor 3 is placed into the first mounting slot 102, the circuit board 6 is positioned along with the motor 3, eliminating the need for an additional mounting structure or separate positioning of the circuit board 6, thereby improving overall assembly efficiency and structural stability. The circuit board 6 has a first through hole 601 for the rotor 31 to pass through and a second through hole 602 for the intermediate shaft 41 to pass through. The first through hole 601 is located at the center of the circuit board 6 and is coaxial with the rotor 31, allowing the rotor 31 to pass through it. The second through hole 602 is designed according to the position of the intermediate shaft 41 to allow it to pass smoothly through the plane of the circuit board 6 without affecting the overall assembly.

[0041] Therefore, this embodiment directly fixes the circuit board 6 to the motor 3 and provides a first mounting groove 102 on the housing 1 for positioning the rotor 31, enabling the circuit board 6 to be synchronously positioned during the assembly of the motor 3. This eliminates the need for separate installation and adjustment of the circuit board 6, simplifies the assembly process, and improves production efficiency. Simultaneously, this structure also helps to improve the utilization rate of the internal space of the electric brake 100, enhancing the overall compactness and integration of the structure.

[0042] Please see Figures 1 to 3In one embodiment of the present invention, the circuit board 6 is provided with a second positioning hole 603. One end of the positioning member 5 passes through the second positioning hole 603 and the first positioning hole 301 and is inserted into the first positioning groove 101, and the other end is inserted into the second positioning groove 201 to connect the housing 1, the motor 3, the circuit board 6 and the cover 2.

[0043] In this embodiment, the position of the second positioning hole 603 corresponds to the positions of the first positioning hole 301, the first positioning groove 101, and the second positioning groove 201, and is used for the positioning component 5 to pass through. The cover 2 is also provided with a second mounting groove 202, in which the deceleration assembly 4 is installed to achieve positioning and support of the deceleration assembly 4. During the assembly process, when the motor 3 and the circuit board 6 fixed to its end are simultaneously placed in the first mounting groove 102, and the deceleration assembly 4 is installed in the second mounting groove 202, one end of the positioning component 5 can be passed through the second positioning hole 603 and the first positioning hole 301 in sequence and inserted into the first positioning groove 101, while the other end is inserted into the second positioning groove 201, thereby integrating the housing 1, the motor 3, the circuit board 6, and the cover 2 to quickly complete the assembly of the electric brake 100. This assembly method uses a single positioning element 5 to connect the housing 1, motor 3, circuit board 6, and cover 2 in series, enabling synchronous positioning and rapid assembly of these components, thus improving the assembly efficiency and structural consistency of the electric brake 100. Simultaneously, because the positioning element 5 connects the housing 1, motor 3, circuit board 6, and cover 2, it enhances the overall structural rigidity and vibration resistance of the electric brake 100, preventing operational instability caused by loosening of at least one of these components. Furthermore, it eliminates the need for multiple positioning pins found in traditional structures, simplifying the connection between the cover 2 and housing 1, reducing the number of parts and assembly steps, improving the integration and internal space utilization of the electric brake 100, and facilitating product miniaturization.

[0044] Please see Figures 1 to 3 In one embodiment of the present invention, the second end cap 33 is provided with a positioning part 35 protruding outward, the positioning part 35 is provided with a first positioning hole 301, the edge of the circuit board 6 is provided with a second positioning hole 603 corresponding to the position of the first positioning hole 301, the inner side wall of the housing 1 is provided with a first positioning groove 101 corresponding to the position of the first positioning hole 301, and the inner side wall of the cover 2 is provided with a second positioning groove 201 corresponding to the position of the first positioning hole 301.

[0045] In this embodiment, the positioning part 35 is protruded outward by the second end cap 33, and the first positioning hole 301 is opened in the positioning part 35, so that the first positioning hole 301 is located in the peripheral area of ​​the motor 3, thereby avoiding occupying the central area of ​​the motor 3, which is conducive to the functional layout or structural simplification of the central area. At the same time, the second positioning hole 603 is set at the edge of the circuit board 6, making full use of the space around the circuit board 6 that is not occupied by the main electronic components, without the need to add an additional independent mounting or positioning structure, which helps to reduce the overall volume and improve the space utilization rate. The first positioning groove 101 and the second positioning groove 201 are respectively set in the inner sidewalls of the housing 1 and the cover 2, making full use of the space in the housing 1 that is not occupied by the motor 3 and the circuit board 6, and the space in the cover 2 that is not occupied by the reduction assembly 4. This embedded first positioning groove 101 and second positioning groove 201 can not only achieve efficient utilization of the accommodating cavity 1001, but also avoid adding connecting parts to the outside of the housing 1 and the cover 2, optimize the external contour of the electric brake 100, and improve the compactness and integration of its overall structure.

[0046] Please see Figures 1 to 3 In one embodiment of the present invention, the positioning part 35 is further provided with a first fixing hole 302, the edge of the circuit board 6 is provided with a second fixing hole 604 corresponding to the position of the first fixing hole 302, and the inner sidewall of the housing 1 is provided with a fixing groove 103 corresponding to the position of the first fixing hole 302; the electric brake 100 further includes a fastener 7, which passes through the first fixing hole 302 and the second fixing hole 604 and is fixed in the fixing groove 103 to fix the circuit board 6 and the motor 3 to the housing 1.

[0047] In this embodiment, the first fixing hole 302 is a through hole penetrating the positioning part 35, used for the fastener 7 to pass through. The second fixing hole 604 is also a through hole, and its position corresponds to the first fixing hole 302. The fixing groove 103 is a recessed structure formed on the inner side wall of the housing 1, used to cooperate with the end of the fastener 7 to realize the positioning and fixing of the fastener 7. The fastener 7 passes through the second fixing hole 604 and the first fixing hole 302, and is fixed in the fixing groove 103, fixing the circuit board 6 and the motor 3 together to the housing 1, realizing a stable connection between the three.

[0048] Please see Figures 1 to 3 In one embodiment of the present invention, there are multiple first fixing holes 302, second fixing holes 604, fixing grooves 103 and fasteners 7; two first fixing holes 302 are equidistantly spaced in the positioning part 35 along the circumference of the motor 3; multiple fasteners 7 are correspondingly inserted into the corresponding first fixing holes 302 and second fixing holes 604, and cooperate with the corresponding fixing grooves 103 to fix the circuit board 6 and the motor 3 to the housing 1.

[0049] In this embodiment, the two first fixing holes 302 are symmetrically distributed on opposite sides of the motor 3 around its circumference to ensure balanced force, stable assembly, and prevent structural deformation or loosening of connections due to uneven loading. Two fasteners 7 pass through the corresponding second fixing holes 604 and first fixing holes 302, respectively, and are finally fixed in the corresponding fixing slots 103, fixing the circuit board 6 and motor 3 to the housing 1. Furthermore, this dual-point fixing structure, compared to single-point fixing, prevents the circuit board 6 and motor 3 from rotating or shifting during assembly or operation, ensuring their consistent position within the housing 1. Simultaneously, this structure fully utilizes the space between the edge of the circuit board 6 and the inner walls of the housing 1 and cover 2, without increasing the external structural dimensions, further optimizing the utilization of the internal space of the electric brake 100, which is beneficial for achieving compactness and miniaturization.

[0050] The present invention also proposes a vehicle, which includes an electric brake 100. The specific structure of the electric brake 100 is as described in the above embodiments. Since the vehicle adopts all the technical solutions of all the above embodiments, it has at least all the beneficial effects brought about by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be described in detail here.

[0051] The above description is merely an exemplary embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. Any equivalent structural transformations made using the contents of the present invention specification and drawings under the technical concept of the present invention, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present invention.
