Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of vehicle brakes, in particular to a heavy truck drum brake. Background Art

[0002] Drum brakes, also called block brakes, achieve braking by pressing the brake pads against the brake wheel. Drum brakes are an early design of the braking system, with the brake pads (brake shoes) located inside the brake wheel. When braking, the brake pads open outwards and rub against the inside of the brake wheel to achieve the purpose of braking.

[0003] Drum brakes are cheap and in line with traditional designs. During the braking process of a four-wheeled car, due to the effect of inertia, the load on the front wheels usually accounts for 70%-80% of the total load of the car. The front wheel braking force is greater than the rear wheel, and the rear wheel plays an auxiliary braking role. Therefore, in order to save costs, car manufacturers use a front disc and rear drum braking method. However, for heavy vehicles, since the speed is generally not very high, the durability of the brake shoes is also higher than that of disc brakes, so many heavy vehicles still use a four-wheel drum design.

[0004] However, as a component for manufacturing the braking force of heavy-duty drum brakes, brake pads play a vital role. After being used for a period of time, they are worn out and cannot meet the needs of effective braking. Therefore, the brakes or brake pads need to be replaced. The existing brake pads are fixedly installed on the brake shoes of the brakes. The entire brake shoes need to be removed before the brake pads can be disassembled and replaced. The operation is cumbersome and inconvenient to use. Utility Model Content

Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0021] Example

[0022] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, an embodiment of the utility model proposes: a heavy-duty truck drum brake, comprising a fixed base plate 1, a brake shoe 2, a driving cylinder 3 and a return spring 4. The mounting seat 201 of the brake shoe 2 is rotatably connected to the fixed base plate 1 through a rotating shaft. The fixed base plate 1 serves as a mounting component of the entire brake, and cooperates with bolts to stably connect the entire brake to the wheel hub of the heavy truck to achieve the purpose of stable installation. The driving cylinder 3 and the return spring 4 are arranged between the mounting seats 201. The driving cylinder 3 is used to push the brake shoe 2 to move on the fixed base plate 1, so that the brake shoe 2 contacts the brake hub to achieve the purpose of stable braking. At the same time, after the braking is completed, the driving cylinder 3 cancels the driving force on the brake shoe 2, and the return spring 4 is used to drive the brake shoe 2 to move and reset, so as to achieve the cancellation operation of the brake, and the mounting seat 2 01 A brake pad 2021 is integrally provided on the curved substrate 202 placed on the outer side, and the brake pad 2021 is used as the contact component between the brake and the brake hub, and the friction between the two is used to generate braking force to achieve the purpose of effective braking. The connecting ear 2023 on the curved substrate 202 is fixedly connected to the mounting seat 201 by a fixing bolt 204, ensuring that the curved substrate 202 is stably installed on the mounting seat 201, realizing rapid disassembly and assembly operations between the two, improving the convenience of use, and facilitating subsequent maintenance and repair. In addition, a rubber gasket 203 is placed between the curved substrate 202 and the mounting seat 201 to form a soft contact between the two, so as to buffer the stress acting on the two components during braking, reduce wear during use, extend the service life, and achieve long-term and stable use.

[0023] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, in some embodiments, a placement groove 2011 is provided on the outer side of the placement seat 201 to fit the arc-shaped substrate 202, and the brake pad 2021 is stably installed on the placement seat 201 by using the arc-shaped substrate 202, so that the two are stably matched and connected together and can be used stably. The brake pad 2021 on one side of the arc-shaped substrate 202 is provided with evenly distributed sink grooves 2022, and the sink grooves 2022 are convenient for enhancing the contact braking efficiency between the brake pad 2021 and the brake hub, thereby enhancing the braking effect. A connecting ear 2023 and a limiting plug block 2024 are integrally provided on one side of the arc-shaped substrate 202 that is attached to the placement seat 201, and through grooves 2015 are provided on the placement seat 201 at positions corresponding to the connecting ear 2023 and the limiting plug block 2024. The connecting ear 2023, the limiting plug block 2024 and the through groove 2015 on the placement seat 201 are used. The cooperation between them can stably install the curved base plate 202 and the brake pad 2021 on the mounting seat 201, so that the two are smoothly connected, and at the same time it is convenient to achieve quick and convenient disassembly and assembly operations, which is convenient for subsequent maintenance and repair, and improves the convenience of use. The connecting ear 2023 passes through the through slot 2015 and is fixedly connected to the fixing bolt 204. The fixing bolt 204 is threadedly connected to the bolt seat 2012 set on the mounting seat 201. The connecting ear 2023 is stably connected to the mounting seat 201 by using the fixing bolt 204, so that the curved base plate 202 and the mounting seat 201 are stably connected. The limiting plug block 2024 is cooperated with the through slot 2015 at the corresponding position to improve the stability of the connection between the two, and avoid the curved base plate 202 and the brake pad 2021 from falling off from the mounting seat 201 during braking, thereby ensuring stable use.

[0024] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, one end of the driving cylinder 3 is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft through a connecting ring sleeve, so that one end of the driving cylinder 3 can be stably connected to the mounting seat 201, so that appropriate rotation can be generated during the operation of the driving cylinder 3 to avoid operation interference and ensure stable and smooth operation. The other end of the driving cylinder 3 is rotatably connected to the rivet through a connecting ring. During operation, the end of the driving cylinder 3 can generate appropriate rotation on the rivet to avoid motion interference and ensure stable operation. The rivet is fixedly connected to the through hole 2013 opened on the mounting seat 201, so that the other end of the driving cylinder 3 can be connected to another mounting seat 201. When the driving cylinder 3 is running, the entire brake shoe 2 is pushed to rotate around the rotating shaft on the fixed base plate 1, so that the brake pad 2021 of the brake shoe 2 tightly contacts the brake hub to complete the braking operation.

[0025] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, in some embodiments, both ends of the return spring 4 are integrally provided with hooks, and the hooks are hooked on the spring hanging holes 2014 opened at the corresponding positions of the mounting seat 201. By utilizing the cooperation between the hooks at both ends and the spring hanging holes 2014, the return spring 4 is stably connected to the mounting seats 201 of the two brake shoes 2. After the driving cylinder 3 drives the brake shoe 2 to move, the brake shoe 2 is reset and the braking operation is canceled, thereby ensuring stable use.

[0026] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model.
