Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of brakes, in particular to a floating caliper radial double-push rod pneumatic disc brake. Background Art

[0002] The floating caliper radial double push rod pneumatic disc brake is an advanced braking system widely used in commercial vehicles and heavy machinery. The brake adopts a floating caliper design, which allows the brake caliper to float freely on the brake disc, ensuring uniform braking force distribution, and can automatically adjust the brake clearance to reduce brake deflection and thermal deformation. The radial double push rod structure applies braking force radially from both sides of the brake disc through two push rods, providing a more balanced braking effect, dispersing the load, reducing single point stress, and extending the life of the brake. The pneumatic drive system uses compressed air to drive the brake, which is suitable for heavy vehicles that require frequent braking and large braking force, and has the advantages of fast response speed and high control accuracy.

[0003] The existing floating caliper radial double push rod air disc brake is widely used, but when the vehicle is wading, mud and sand may adhere to the outside of the brake disc, and direct braking will cause the mud and sand to wear the brake disc. In the long run, it will cause problems such as abnormal brake noise and weakened braking force. Although the disc brake has good heat dissipation performance, it may still experience thermal decay under extreme conditions (such as racing or long-term downhill), resulting in reduced braking efficiency. Therefore, a floating caliper radial double push rod air disc brake is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content
