[0027] The following is combined with Figure 1 This application is described in further detail.
[0028] The present application embodiment discloses a drum brake pad elastic pressing mechanism. Figure 1 The elastic downward pressing mechanism of the drum brake pad comprises a cross beam 1 and two groups of portal frames 2. The two ends of the cross beam 1 are respectively vertically connected to the tops of the two groups of portal frames 2. The cross beam 1 is arranged horizontally.

[0029] The beneficial technical effects of the drum brake pad elastic pressing mechanism of the embodiment of the present application are roughly as follows:
[0030] The drum brake pad does not need to be pressed during transportation. At this time, the lifting drive unit 3 is not started, the elastic strip plate 4 and the brake pad pressing block 5 are in the highest position, and the brake pad pressing block 5 does not contact the drum brake pad being transported. During chamfering, the lifting drive unit 3 is started, the elastic strip plate 4 and the brake pad pressing block 5 are driven to the lowest position, and then multiple brake pad pressing blocks 5 will respectively press and fix the drum brake pad below, which is conducive to subsequent precise chamfering processing, effectively reducing the difficulty of uninterrupted transportation of brake pads, and is conducive to efficient switching of brake pads for chamfering. In addition, the overall structure is simple, the operation is stable, and the production cost is relatively low.
[0031] In this embodiment, the lifting drive unit 3 includes a telescopic drive member 31, a connecting plate 32 and two groups of sliding components 33. The connecting plate 32 is fixed to the bottom of the telescopic rod of the telescopic drive member 31. The connecting plate 32 is horizontally arranged and connected to the middle of the elastic strip plate 4. The sliding component 33 is connected between the connecting plate 32 and the beam 1.

[0032] The sliding group includes a sliding sleeve 331 and a guide rod 332 . The bottom of the guide rod 332 is fixed on the connecting plate 32 . The sliding sleeve 331 is arranged vertically and passes through the cross beam 1 . The guide rod 332 slides through the sliding sleeve 331 .
[0033] In order to prevent debris generated during the chamfering process from entering between the sliding sleeve 331 and the guide rod 332, the sliding group also includes two sets of telescopic folding covers 333 for dust prevention. The guide rod 332 passes through the telescopic folding covers 333. One set of telescopic folding covers 333 is clamped between the connecting plate 32 and the bottom of the sliding sleeve 331, and the other set of telescopic folding covers 333 is clamped between the top of the guide rod 332 and the top of the sliding sleeve 331, so that the sliding between the sliding sleeve 331 and the guide rod 332 will be smoother.
[0034] Specifically, the telescopic driving member 31 is a servo cylinder. In other embodiments, the servo cylinder can also be replaced by an oil cylinder or an electric push rod.
[0035] The lifting drive part 3 designed as above has a simple structure, and has relatively low manufacturing and maintenance costs, and is stable in operation and can drive the elastic strip plate 4 to rise and fall smoothly.
[0036] In this embodiment, in order to extend the service life of the elastic strip plate 4, the elastic strip plate 4 is a stainless steel plate, and the width of the elastic strip plate 4 is between 5-15 cm, and the length of the elastic strip plate 4 is between 50-100 cm.
[0037] In order to prevent the upper surface of the drum brake pad from being crushed, the brake pad pressing block 5 is a square rubber soft plate, which is fixed to the lower surface of the elastic strip plate 4 by multiple sets of screws.
[0038] In order to improve the structural strength of the beam 1 while reducing the weight, the beam 1 includes a beam bottom plate 11 and two beam side plates 12. The two beam side plates 12 are vertically connected to the opposite sides of the beam bottom plate 11. The cross section of the beam 1 is a U-shaped structure with the opening arranged upward.
