[0021] In order to facilitate understanding of the present application, the present application will be described more fully below with reference to the relevant drawings. Embodiments of the present application are provided in the drawings. However, the present application can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. On the contrary, the purpose of providing these embodiments is to make the disclosure of the present application more thorough and comprehensive.

[0022] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which this application belongs. The terms used herein in the specification of this application are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit this application.

[0023] See also Figure 1-4 The utility model discloses a heavy truck brake mounting structure, comprising a brake assembly 1, a mounting seat 2 and a brake drum 3 mounted on both sides of the brake assembly 1, a threaded member connected to the mounting seat 2 is arranged on the inner side of the brake drum 3, inner grooves 4 distributed in an annular shape and at equal distances are arranged on the inner side of the brake drum 3, a fastener for adjusting the opening and closing between the inner side of the brake drum 3 and the inner groove 4 is arranged in the inner groove 4, a spring sheet 7 is arranged between the inner groove 4 and the fastener, and the spring sheet 7 supports the fastener to expand and fit on the outer side of the threaded member.

[0024] See also Figure 3 The brake drum 3 is installed on the outside of the brake assembly 1 and fits with the top of the mounting seat 2. An outer slot 32 is opened in the center of the top of the brake drum 3. Bolts 31 are arranged at the edge of the outer slot 32 on the top of the brake drum 3. The bolts 31 are used for installing and fixing the wheel hub. The bolts 31 are distributed in a circular shape with equal distances around the center of the brake drum 3. A socket 33 is opened in the center of the bottom of the inner wall of the outer slot 32. A threaded column 21 is inserted into the socket 33 and extends into the outer slot 32 and is arranged in the center of the top of the mounting seat 2.

[0025] See also Figure 1The threaded part is composed of a nut 5, which is threadedly connected to the outside of the threaded column 21 and fits the bottom of the inner wall of the outer slot 32. The bottom end of the nut 5 is cylindrical and fits the bottom of the inner wall of the outer slot 32. The top of the nut 5 is a regular hexagon. One end of the regular hexagon of the nut 5 does not fit the inner wall of the outer slot 32, and a gap is left between them. A sealing cover 8 is installed on the top of the inner wall of the outer slot 32. The setting that the cylindrical end of the nut 5 fits the inner wall of the outer slot 32 can reduce the vibration impact received by the nut 5 after installation and increase the stability after installation. One end of the regular hexagon of the nut 5 allows the nut 5 to still be used for removal and installation with instruments such as electric wrenches.

[0026] See also Figure 2 Arc-shaped slide rails 41 are provided on two sides of the inner wall of the inner groove 4 that are far away from each other. The slide rails 41 are symmetrically distributed with the center of the brake drum 3 as the origin. The setting of the slide rails 41 can cooperate with the slider 61 on the outside of the block 6 to form a movable connection, thereby increasing the stability of the block 6 during the movable rotation process of the inner groove 4.

[0027] See also Figure 2 The fastening member is composed of a card block 6 and a slider 61. The card block 6 is triangular in shape. The two ends of the card block 6 that are far away from each other are located in the inner notch 4. The other end of the card block 6 extends into the outer notch 32 and is located between the two ends that are far away from each other. The top of the card block 6 is installed between the tops of the two sides of the inner wall of the inner notch 4 that are far away from each other. The card block 6 is rotatably connected between the two sides of the inner wall of the inner notch 4. The slider 61 is set at the bottom of the surface of the card block 6 and is slidably connected in the slide rail 41. The spring sheet 7 is installed between the card block 6 and the side of the inner wall of the inner notch 4 that is away from the nut 5. The setting of the spring sheet 7 can support the inclined surface of the card block 6 to extend to the outer In the slot 32, when the nut 5 is installed, the inclined surface on the top of the block 6 can guide the nut 5 to press the block 6, so that the spring sheet 7 is compressed and the block 6 is received in the inner slot 4. When the nut 5 is installed, the block 6 can automatically reset under the rebound of the spring sheet 7, and form a buckle reinforcement for the nut 5 through the inclined surface at the bottom. The process is automatically continuous, and the bottom of the block 6 fits with the edge of the cylindrical end of the nut 5. The block 6 clamps and fixes the nut 5 to the bottom of the outer slot 32 without the influence of external force, thereby reducing the influence of the vehicle vibration on the nut 5 and increasing the stability and structural strength of the connection of the nut 5.

[0028] When it is necessary to install the nut 5, first insert the nut 5 into the outer slot 32 and threadably connect it with the threaded column 21. During the connection process, the nut 5 drops vertically until the nut 5 contacts the inclined surface at the top of the block 6. During the dropping process, the nut 5 fits the inclined surface at the top of the block 6 to squeeze the block 6, so that the block 6 rotates along the slide rail 41 toward the inner slot 4 through the slider 61, and squeezes the spring sheet 7 until the block 6 is completely received into the inner slot 4. When the nut 5 is installed, the cylindrical end of the nut 5 moves out from the outside of the block 6. At this time, the block 6 loses the external force of the nut 5 squeezing, and the spring sheet 7 resets and pushes the block 6 to move to its original position along the slide rail 41 toward the outer slot 32 through the rebound force. After resetting, the block 6 is buckled at the edge of the cylindrical end of the nut 5 through the inclined surface at the bottom to form a buckle reinforcement.
