[0002] The brake disc is one of the important components in the automobile braking system. When the car is driving, the brake disc is connected to the wheel hub and rotates synchronously. At this time, there is a gap between the friction plate and the brake disc to prevent the friction plate and the brake disc from contacting and generating braking torque.

Therefore, the performance of the brake disc directly affects the safety of the car.

[0037] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects solved by the utility model more clear, the utility model is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described here are only used to explain the utility model and are not used to limit the utility model.
[0038] See also Figures 1 to 4 The brake disc provided by an embodiment of the utility model comprises a main disc body 1, a first composite disc 2 and a second composite disc 3. The main disc body 1, the first composite disc 2 and the second composite disc 3 are annular, the first composite disc 2 is attached to one axial side surface of the main disc body 1, and the second composite disc 3 is attached to the other axial side surface of the main disc body 1; the material density of the main disc body 1 is less than the material density of the first composite disc 2 and the second composite disc 3. The first composite disc 2 and the second composite disc 3 are wrapped on both axial side surfaces of the main disc body 1, which can protect the main disc body 1 and limit the position of the main disc body 1.
[0039] According to the brake disc of the embodiment of the utility model, the first composite disc 2 is attached to one axial side surface of the main disc body 1, and the second composite disc 3 is attached and fixed to the other axial side surface of the main disc body 1. Compared with the solid brake disc made of a single cast iron material in the prior art, the brake disc of the present application is lighter than the existing solid brake disc made of cast iron material at the same volume because the material density of the main disc body 1 is less than that of the first composite disc 2 and the second composite disc 3, so as to achieve the purpose of lightweighting the brake disc. In this way, the fuel consumption of the vehicle can be reduced, and the power and energy economy of the vehicle can be improved.
[0040] The surface of the first composite disc 2 facing away from the second composite disc 3 is the friction area on one side of the brake disc, and the surface of the second composite disc 3 facing away from the first composite disc 2 is the friction area on the other side of the brake disc. During braking, the brake clamp can push the two friction plates to move toward each other, so that one of the friction plates can be pressed against the friction area on the first composite disc 2, and the other friction plate can be pressed against the friction area on the second composite disc 3, generating a braking torque to achieve the braking of the brake disc. During braking, a large amount of heat is generated. In the direction of heat transfer, the surface of the first composite disc 2 away from the second composite disc 3 and the surface of the second composite disc 3 away from the first composite disc 2 are in contact with the air, and the heat is transferred to the surrounding environment of the brake disc through convection heat transfer, while the surface of the first composite disc 2 close to the second composite disc 3 and the surface of the second composite disc 3 close to the first composite disc 2 are in contact with the main disc body 1, and the heat is transferred to the main disc body 1 through the effect of heat conduction, and part of the heat in the main disc body 1 is stored in the main disc body 1, and the other part is diffused to the surrounding environment of the brake disc by convection heat transfer to achieve the heat dissipation of the brake disc.
