Description

Technical Field

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

[0002] Brakes are components in the braking system that generate braking force to hinder the movement or movement trend of a vehicle. In addition to various retarder devices, brakes for land vehicles are almost all friction brakes that use the friction between the fixed element and the working surface of the rotating element to generate braking torque. According to the different rotating elements, they can be divided into two categories: drum type and disc type. The difference between them is that the rotating element in the friction pair of drum brakes is a brake drum, and its cylindrical surface is the working surface; the rotating element in the friction pair of disc brakes is a disc-shaped brake disc, and its end face is the working surface.

[0003] The brake disc structure is the main component of the disc brake and belongs to the friction pair of the disc brake. When working, it is not only subjected to large normal and tangential forces applied by the brake pads, but also withstands a much greater heat load than the brake drum. The maximum surface temperature can reach 800°C. Under high temperature, the brake disc structure may warp, resulting in friction noise and scratches, which will affect its braking effect and service life.

[0004] In order for the brake disc structure to have appropriate heat capacity and good heat dissipation performance, full consideration must be given to its structure and thickness.

[0005] The solid brake disc structure made of metal in the related art is usually between 20 and 22.5 mm thick; the material is mostly gray cast iron, or alloy cast iron with Cr, Ni, etc. Its heat resistance, heat dissipation and heat capacity are still insufficient. Especially when used in heavy-load vehicles such as subways, which require frequent starting, stopping and braking, it is difficult to meet the requirements for high performance, lightness and stability of the braking system. Utility Model Content

[0006] In order to improve the heat dissipation effect, braking performance and service life of a brake disc structure, the present application provides a brake disc structure.

[0007] The brake disc structure provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0008] A brake disc structure comprises a disc body, a through hole is opened in the middle of the disc body, one side of the disc body is a support surface, and the other side of the disc body is a friction surface;

[0009] An annular outer ring retaining edge is arranged on the support surface of the disk body near the outer peripheral edge, an annular outer ring retaining edge is arranged on the support surface of the disk body near the inner edge, and an annular boss is arranged on the support surface of the disk body between the outer ring retaining edge and the inner ring retaining edge;

[0010] A first annular air duct is formed between the outer ring retaining edge and the annular boss, and a second annular air duct is formed between the inner ring retaining edge and the annular boss; a plurality of groups of first notch grooves facing each other are provided on the outer ring retaining edge, the annular boss and the inner ring retaining edge to form a plurality of groups of cooling air ducts along the radial direction of the disk body; the cooling air duct is connected with the first annular air duct and the second annular air duct.

[0011] In the present application, the structure of the supporting surface of the disc body is optimized, and multiple groups of cooling air ducts and a first annular air duct and a second annular air duct are cleverly designed; by adopting the above technical scheme, the cooling air duct and the first annular air duct and the second annular air duct are used in coordination for ventilation and heat dissipation, thereby improving the ventilation and heat dissipation effect during braking, reducing the temperature during braking, thereby improving braking performance, and minimizing the weight of the brake disc structure, achieving a lightweight effect.

[0012] Optionally, the two ends of the cooling air duct respectively penetrate the hole wall of the through hole and the outer peripheral surface of the disk body, and the first notch groove wall and the bottom surface of the inner ring retaining edge are smoothly transitioned to the hole wall of the through hole by chamfering, and the first notch groove wall and the bottom surface of the outer ring retaining edge are also smoothly transitioned to the outer peripheral surface of the disk body by chamfering.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the cooling air duct runs through both sides of the disc body, ensuring that cold air can flow directly and evenly into the brake disc structure, improving the heat exchange efficiency between the disc body and the air, effectively reducing the temperature during braking, and thus significantly improving braking performance.

[0014] Optionally, the side surfaces of the outer ring retaining edge and the annular boss are smoothly transitioned to the bottom of the first annular air duct through rounded corners, and the side surfaces of the inner ring retaining edge and the annular boss are smoothly transitioned to the bottom of the second annular air duct through rounded corners.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the cold air flow can flow more smoothly in the first annular air duct and the second annular air duct, further improving the air cooling effect.

[0016] Optionally, the cooling air ducts are evenly spaced along the circumference of the disk, and all cooling air ducts are centrally symmetrically distributed with the center of the disk as the center point.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the cooling air ducts on both sides of the disc body are arranged relatively to each other and run through both sides of the disc body, so that the cold air can convect more easily, and can directly and evenly flow into the brake disc structure and then flow out quickly, thereby efficiently taking away the heat generated by friction of the disc body, effectively controlling the temperature of the disc body during braking, and improving its braking performance.

[0018] Optionally, the inner ring retaining edge, the annular boss and the outer ring retaining edge have the same height, and the first notch groove on the outer ring retaining edge, the first notch groove on the annular boss and the first notch groove on the inner ring retaining edge have the same width and depth.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the airflow is facilitated and no obstruction occurs.

[0020] Optionally, the bottoms of the first notch groove on the outer ring retaining edge, the first notch groove on the annular boss, and the first notch groove on the inner ring retaining edge are all flush with the bottoms of the first annular air duct and the second annular air duct.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the unique cooling air duct cooperates with the first annular air duct and the second annular air duct to ensure the smoothness of air flow, greatly improves the ventilation and heat dissipation effect during braking, and improves the weight reduction effect.

[0022] Optionally, a positioning key groove is further provided on the annular boss, and the positioning key groove penetrates the inner and outer sides of the annular boss along the radial direction of the disk body.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, the positioning key slot facilitates the positioning and installation of the disk body, and can also achieve certain ventilation, heat dissipation and weight reduction effects.

[0024] Optionally, a second notch groove which is directly opposite to the positioning key groove is formed on the inner ring retaining edge and the outer ring retaining edge, and the depth of the second notch groove is greater than the depth of the positioning key groove.

[0025] By adopting the above technical solution, the second notch groove can further improve the ventilation and heat dissipation effects and the weight reduction effects.

[0026] Optionally, the annular boss is further provided with a plurality of mounting holes, the mounting holes are spaced apart along the circumference of the annular boss, and at least one mounting hole is provided on the portion of the annular boss between any two adjacent groups of the cooling air ducts;

[0027] The mounting hole is a stepped hole, the large hole of the mounting hole extends through the friction surface of the disc body, and the large hole of the mounting hole extends through the outer side surface of the annular boss.

[0028] By adopting the above technical solution, when installing the disc body, the disc body is fixed by inserting a bolt into the mounting hole, and the head of the bolt is inserted into the large hole of the step hole to prevent the friction surface of the bolt from protruding from the disc body and interfering with the brake part; at the same time, the layout design of the above connection structure can ensure the uniformity of the force on the disc body and ensure the stable and reliable installation.

[0029] Optionally, the disc body is in a circular ring shape and is made of carbon ceramic material; the disc body, the outer ring retaining edge, the annular boss and the inner ring retaining edge are integrally formed.

[0030] The traditional metal brake disc structure has poor high / low temperature resistance, and the heat generated during braking is difficult to dissipate quickly, which can easily lead to a decrease in braking performance; during high-frequency and continuous braking, the disc temperature will rise rapidly, the braking performance will significantly decrease, and it is easy to have a short-term brake failure, and the continuous braking performance is poor. The weight of the metal brake disc structure is relatively large, and it cannot meet the lightweight requirements of special fields such as subways. The metal brake disc structure is easy to rust and has poor corrosion resistance, which will affect its service life and performance. It also has poor wear resistance and requires frequent maintenance during use. In this application, the entire disc body including the inner ring boss and the outer ring boss can be made of high-quality carbon ceramic material, and is integrally formed through preform needle puncture, deposition, high temperature and other processes. By adopting the above technical solution, the problems of the above-mentioned metal brake disc structure are solved. The brake disc structure in this application is resistant to high / low temperatures, corrosion, and wear, and has high heat capacity and a long service life.
