[0003] The existing disc brake structure is large in size and is not convenient to be arranged in the wheel hub motor. In addition, braking will generate a lot of heat, which will have an adverse effect on the motor performance. A wheel hub motor brake structure is disclosed in a Chinese patent (Announcement No.: CN 219570691U) to solve the above problems. It is easy to be assembled on the wheel hub motor and arranged on the outside of the motor to avoid the heat generated by braking affecting the motor performance. The heat generated by braking can be dissipated in time and will not affect the motor. However, there is still a problem that the piston friction plate is easy to fall off the brake caliper. Since the piston in the above document is not provided with a limiting structure, when the hydraulic oil pushes the piston friction block to squeeze out, it is easy to loosen after long-term use, affecting the braking effect, and it is also easy to fall off the brake caliper.

[0018] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. 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.
[0019] See also Figure 1-2A wheel hub motor brake structure in this embodiment includes a wheel hub 1 and a brake disc 2. The outer surface of the brake disc 2 is rotatably connected to a brake caliper housing 3. An oil inlet pipe 4 is fixed to the top of the brake caliper housing 3. An oil channel 5 is provided inside the brake caliper housing 3. The oil channel 5 is connected to the oil inlet pipe 4. The left and right ends of the inner side of the oil channel 5 are slidably connected to piston friction blocks 6. A limit assembly 7 is provided on the opposite side of the two piston friction blocks 6.
[0020] See also Figure 2 The limiting assembly 7 in this embodiment includes a sealing ring 701 slidably connected to the outer surfaces of the two piston friction blocks 6, the limiting assembly 7 also includes two limiting blocks 702 fixed to the front and rear ends of the piston friction blocks 6, the limiting assembly 7 also includes four sliding grooves 703 opened on the front and rear walls of the inner cavity of the oil channel 5, and the limiting assembly 7 also includes a pushing assembly arranged on the side opposite to the two piston friction blocks 6.
[0021] Among them, sliding holes are opened on the left and right walls on the inner side of the brake caliper housing 3, and the piston friction block 6 passes through the sliding holes to the inside of the oil channel 5 and is slidably connected therewith, so that the piston friction block 6 can be moved out of the inner side of the brake caliper housing 3, and the two piston friction blocks 6 can be abutted against the brake disc 2; and the oil channel 5 is C-shaped, and the sealing ring 701 is located inside the oil channel 5 and fixed thereto, so as to ensure the sealing between the piston friction block 6 and the brake caliper housing 3 and avoid oil leakage.
[0022] In addition, the limit block 702 is located inside the slide groove 703, and the limit block 702 and the slide groove 703 are slidably connected, so that the limit block 702 can slide in the oil channel 5 through the slide groove 703, thereby limiting the piston friction block 6 and preventing the piston friction block 6 from falling off from the brake caliper housing 3.
[0023] See also Figure 2-3 The pushing assembly in this embodiment includes four hinged rods 704 hingedly connected to the side opposite to the two piston friction blocks 6, and the pushing assembly also includes a vertical plate 706 fixed to the left and right walls of the inner cavity of the oil channel 5, and two pressure plates 707 are slidably connected inside the vertical plate 706, and two springs 708 are fixed to the side opposite to the upper and lower pressure plates 707, and the front and rear ends of the pressure plates 707 are fixed with connecting blocks 705 for connecting to the hinged rods 704, and the opposite ends of the left and right groups of connecting blocks 705 are hingedly connected to the opposite ends of the left and right groups of hinged rods 704.

[0025] The working principle of the above embodiment is:
[0026] When in use, the piston friction block 6 passes through the front and rear two groups of limit blocks 702, so that when the hydraulic oil pushes it to move, the piston friction block 6 is not easy to fall off from the brake caliper housing 3 or to deviate, thereby avoiding the phenomenon of poor braking effect; and the piston friction block 6 slides on the inner side of the sealing ring 701 to avoid oil leakage, and when the two piston friction blocks 6 are worn, the upper and lower groups of springs 708 push the upper and lower groups of pressure plates 707 to move relative to each other under the elastic force of the springs 708, so that the pressure plates 707 can drive the connecting blocks 705 to move, so that the left and right groups of connecting blocks 705 can push the two piston friction blocks 6 to move relative to each other through the left and right groups of hinged rods 704, thereby pushing the piston friction blocks 6 to move relative to each other, so that the two piston friction blocks 6 can fit closely with the brake disc 2, and can provide reset stress for the piston friction blocks 6.
