Abstract

Technical Field
[0001] The utility model generally relates to the technical field of vehicle braking, and more specifically to a brake disc, a brake system and a vehicle. Background Art
[0002] The brake disc is one of the important parts in the automobile braking system. When the car is running, 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. When the car brakes, the friction plate fits the brake disc, and the contact surface generates a large friction force, which hinders the car from decelerating. Therefore, the performance of the brake disc directly affects the safety of the car.

[0051] Figures 1 to 3 A brake disc according to the present invention is shown, and the brake disc comprises a disc body 100 and a friction assembly 110. The friction assembly 110 at least covers a portion of a disc surface 101 of the disc body 100.
[0052] The material density of the disc body 100 is less than the material density of the friction component 110 .
[0053] According to the brake disc of the present invention, the friction assembly 110 with a larger material density contacts the friction plate, thereby braking the wheel hub connected to the disc body 100, while the material density of the disc body 100 is smaller, thereby reducing the weight of the brake disc, thereby achieving the effect of lightweighting the brake disc.
[0054] Optionally, the volume of the friction assembly 110 is not greater than the volume of the disc body 100 , thereby further reducing the weight of the brake disc.
[0055] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2A connecting portion 104 is provided at the center of the disk body 100, and the connecting portion 104 protrudes from the disk surface 101 of the disk body 100 along the thickness direction D1. The connecting portion 104 has a bolt hole 105, and the connecting portion 104 is fixed to the wheel hub through the bolt hole 105, so that the disk body 100 is fixed to the wheel hub.
[0056] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The disc body 100 is provided with a ventilation duct 102, and the friction assembly 110 at least partially extends into the ventilation duct 102, so that the friction assembly 110 is connected to both the inner and outer sides of the disc body 100, so that the disc body 100 is wrapped in the friction assembly 110, so that the friction assembly 110 is tightly connected to the disc body 100 and is not easy to loosen.
[0057] Reference Figure 3 The friction assembly 110 includes an outer friction layer 111 and an inner friction layer 112, combined with Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the outer friction layer 111 is attached to the disk surface 101 and fixed to the disk surface 101. The inner friction layer 112 is attached to the inner surface of the ventilation duct 102 and fixed to the inner surface of the ventilation duct 102. In detail, the inner friction layer 112 is arranged on the two inner surfaces of the ventilation duct 102 perpendicular to the thickness direction D1 of the disk body 100. The inner friction layer 112 covers the inner surface of the ventilation duct 102 perpendicular to the thickness direction D1, so the shape of the inner friction layer 112 is adjusted according to the shape of the inner surface of the ventilation duct 102 perpendicular to the thickness direction D1. For example, the ventilation duct 102 extends along the radial direction D3 of the disk body 100 and is connected to the side wall of the disk body 100, and the inner surface of the ventilation duct 102 perpendicular to the thickness direction D1 is fan-shaped, then the shape of the inner friction layer 112 is fan-shaped. The outer friction layer 111 is annular and arranged around the axis of the disk body 100.
[0058] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The disk surface 101 is provided with a connection port 103, and the connection port 103 is connected to the ventilation duct 102. The friction assembly 110 also includes a rib 113, which is connected to the outer friction layer 111. The rib 113 is accommodated in the connection port 103 and connected to the inner friction layer 112 through the connection port 103. The arrangement of the connection port 103 and the rib 113 is conducive to strengthening the limitation of the outer friction layer 111 along the circumferential direction D2 of the disk body 100, so that the outer friction layer 111 is not easily separated from the disk body 100.
[0059] Reference Figure 2 The disk body 100 is provided with a plurality of ventilation channels 102 and a plurality of connection ports 103. The plurality of ventilation channels 102 are evenly distributed around the axis of the disk body 100, and the plurality of ventilation channels 102 and the plurality of connection ports 103 are arranged one by one. Figure 3The friction assembly 110 includes an outer friction layer 111, a plurality of ribs 113 and a plurality of inner friction layers 112. The plurality of ribs 113 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the plurality of inner friction layers 112. The plurality of ribs 113 are all connected to the outer friction layer 111. The plurality of inner friction layers 112 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the plurality of ventilation ducts 102 and are arranged at intervals around the axis of the disk body 100 along the circumferential direction D2 of the disk body 100, which not only enhances the heat dissipation performance of the disk body 100, but also further enhances the connection strength between the friction assembly 110 and the disk body 100.
[0060] Optionally, the outer friction layer 111, the inner friction layer 112 and the ribs 113 are integrally formed. Specifically, the friction assembly 110 and the disc body 100 are formed by two materials entering a mold and blending and connecting. The disc body 100 can be made of aluminum alloy, aluminum alloy ceramic or carbon fiber ceramic material, and the friction assembly 110 can be made of cast iron material, such as cast iron HT250, HT150, HT200, etc.
[0061] As an alternative, the friction assembly 110 may also be connected to the disk body 100 by high-pressure pressing.
[0062] Optionally, the thickness of the outer friction layer 111 is at least 1 mm, so that the friction component 110 has good wear resistance. The thickness of the inner friction layer 112 can also be at least 1 mm, ensuring the connection strength between the friction component 110 and the disc body 100.
[0063] Overall, referring to Figures 1 to 3 According to the utility model, the brake disc includes two groups of friction components 110, which are spaced apart along the axial direction of the disc body 100 (i.e., the radial direction D1) and symmetrically distributed on the two disc surfaces 101 of the disc body 100, corresponding to the friction plates in the existing braking system (two friction plates are clamped to the two disc surfaces 101 of the brake disc), thereby ensuring the wear resistance and braking performance of the brake disc.
[0064] Optionally, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The number of ribs 113 is twice the number of ventilation channels 102, so that the two groups of outer friction layers 111 and inner friction layers 112 on both sides of the disc body 100 are independently connected, the connection structure is stable, and it is easy to manufacture and process.
[0065] The utility model also provides a brake system, comprising the brake disc and friction plates according to the above, wherein the friction plates are arranged on both sides of the disc body 100. According to the brake system of the utility model, a lightweight brake disc is used to reduce the weight of the brake system.
[0066] Generally speaking, the braking system also includes a caliper (not shown in the figure), which is driven by hydraulic pressure. Two friction plates are respectively arranged on the two inner walls of the caliper. When the caliper is started, the two friction plates are clamped to the two outer friction layers 111 of the brake disc, thereby braking the disc body 100 and the wheel hub.
[0067] The utility model also provides a vehicle, comprising the above-mentioned brake system. According to the third aspect of the utility model, the vehicle adopts a brake disc with low weight, thereby facilitating the weight reduction of the whole vehicle.
