[0033] Combined Figures 1-4 As shown, the embodiments of the present disclosure provide a lightweight carbon-ceramic brake disc assembly for a new energy vehicle, including a base body 1, ventilation grooves 11, a wind guiding tooth ring 13, wind guiding teeth 13, and a hub 4.
[0034] The base body 1 is made of carbon-ceramic composite material. The carbon-ceramic composite material has the characteristics of lightweight, high specific strength, high specific modulus, excellent wear resistance and good thermal stability. The base body 1 is in a ring structure to adapt to the installation requirements of the braking system and ensure the structural stability during braking; a plurality of ventilation grooves 11, the optional number is 40 - 60, are arranged on the base body 1, penetrating through the outer ring side and the inner ring side of the base body 1, effectively reducing the heat accumulation during braking and improving the braking performance. At the same time, the ventilation grooves 11 further reduce the weight of the base body 1; the wind guiding tooth ring 13 is connected to the inner ring of the base body 1. The wind guiding tooth ring 13 and the base body 1 can be fixedly connected by means such as integral casting / manufacturing, welding, bolt connection, etc. The present application does not limit this; a plurality of wind guiding teeth 13, the optional number is 40 - 60, are arranged on the wind guiding tooth ring 13. The wind guiding teeth 13 and the wind guiding tooth ring 13 can be fixedly connected by means such as integral casting / manufacturing, welding, bolt connection, etc. The present application does not limit this. The wind guiding teeth 13 can guide air into the ventilation grooves 11 to further enhance the heat dissipation effect; the hub 4 is connected to the wind guiding tooth ring 13 or the wind guiding teeth 13. The connection between the hub 4 and the wind guiding tooth ring 13 or the wind guiding teeth 13 is made in a reliable and easily detachable manner, facilitating the installation, maintenance and replacement of the brake disc.
[0035] Optionally, the hub 4 is connected to the wind guiding tooth ring 13 or the wind guiding teeth 13 through a floating block 2. The floating block 2 is made of a material compatible with the material of the base body 1 and having good mechanical properties and wear resistance, such as high-strength ceramics, special alloys or specially treated metal composite materials. One end of the floating block 2 is fixedly connected to the hub 4 through fasteners (such as bolts, pins, etc.) or integral molding, and the other end is matched with the bolt hole 12 on the wind guiding tooth ring 13 or the wind guiding teeth 13 to form a floating connection structure. This design allows the floating block 2 to generate a certain displacement or rotation according to the force situation during the rotation and braking of the brake disc, thereby alleviating the deformation or damage caused by the concentration of thermal stress or mechanical stress.
[0036] Optionally, the floating block 2 is a cap-shaped sleeve. More specifically, the upper part of the floating block 2 is a hollow round cap, and the lower part is a hollow cylinder.
[0037] Optionally, the floating block 2 is made of 316 stainless steel and is used to connect with the bolt holes 12 of the carbon ceramic brake disc. The through hole of the floating block 2 is used to install the screw rod 3. The design concept of the floating block 2 is an overall floating type. During the vehicle braking process, there is a floating space between the carbon ceramic brake disc and the adapter 4, which reduces the buffer stress and avoids damage to the carbon ceramic brake disc.
[0038] Optionally, the brake disc assembly further includes: a screw rod 3 for fixing the adapter 4 on the air guiding teeth 13 ring or the air guiding teeth 13; a through hole provided on the floating block 2, and the screw rod 3 passes through the through hole.
[0039] Optionally, the brake disc assembly further includes: a plurality of bolt holes 12, the optional number is 14 - 16, which are provided on the air guiding teeth 13 ring or the air guiding teeth 13; a plurality of connecting holes, the optional number is 14 - 16, which are provided on the adapter 4 and are arranged corresponding to the bolt holes 12; a gasket 5 provided between the bolt holes 12 and the connecting holes. The gasket 5 can be made of 316 stainless steel. The gasket 5 is installed between the adapter 4 and the carbon ceramic brake disc. The gasket 5 can effectively reduce the impact force generated on the carbon ceramic brake disc and the adapter 4 during vehicle braking, and can avoid the heat transfer of the carbon ceramic brake disc to the adapter 4, ensuring the safe use performance of the carbon ceramic brake disc assembly; and, the floating block 2 passes through the connecting hole, the gasket 5, and the bolt hole 12 in sequence, and the screw rod 3 passes through the floating block 2, the connecting hole, the gasket 5, and the bolt hole 12 in sequence and is connected with the nut 6. The screw rod 3 and the locking nut 6 are made of 316 stainless steel to connect and assemble all the components. The nut 6 is of a locking type rather than a common type. After the screw rod 3 penetrates all the components, through the cooperation of the screw rod 3 and the locking nut 6, the risk of the nut 6 loosening after frequent braking and long-term use of the vehicle can be prevented, ensuring the safety of the driver. After the assembly disc is installed, the screw rod 3 and the nut 6 do not exceed the surface of the carbon ceramic brake disc to avoid affecting the installation of the brake disc.
[0040] Optionally, the ventilation grooves 11 are arranged at intervals around the central axis of the base body 1 in a radial manner. The ventilation grooves 11 are oblong holes. The long axis of the oblong hole is parallel to the central axis of the base body 1. The long axis direction of the oblong hole is parallel to the central axis of the base body 1, so that more ventilation grooves 11 can be arranged on the base body 1, improving the ventilation volume and further enhancing the heat dissipation effect. Of course, the thickness of the base body 1 needs to be appropriately increased to ensure sufficient ventilation volume and structural stability.
[0041] Optionally, the adapter 4 is provided with a groove body 44, the groove body 44 can accommodate the floating block 2, and the connecting hole is provided on the groove body 44.
[0042] Optionally, the groove body 44 is a U-shaped card slot.
[0043] Optionally, the air guiding teeth 13 include one or more of the following: the air guiding teeth 13 are trapezoidal, which is beneficial to guiding the air flow and forming a more efficient heat dissipation path. The acute angle part of the trapezoid can guide the air to flow more concentratedly towards the ventilation slot 11; the air guiding teeth 13 are arranged at intervals around the central axis of the base body 1; air can form a circulating flow around the base body 1, thereby effectively increasing the heat dissipation area and heat dissipation efficiency. The axis of the air guiding teeth 13 points towards the central axis direction of the base body 1. The "tip" or "front end" of the air guiding teeth 13 will face the center of the base body 1, thus helping to guide the external air to the inside of the base body 1 or a position closer to the center for heat dissipation.
[0044] Optionally, positioning holes 42 are arrayed at the inner edge of the joint head 4, and the number is 5 - 6, which are used to fix the carbon ceramic brake disc assembly.
[0045] Optionally, mounting holes 41 are arrayed at the inner edge of the joint head 4, and the number is 5 - 6, which are used for the fixing bolts that pass the joint head 4 through the axle to fix the carbon ceramic brake disc assembly.
[0046] Optionally, screw holes 45 are provided on the joint head 4, which are used to fix the carbon ceramic brake disc assembly.
[0047] Optionally, a central hole 43 is provided on the joint head 4.
[0048] The installation form of the brake disc assembly is as follows: First, place the carbon ceramic brake disc 1 horizontally with the assembly surface facing up; Second, place the gaskets 5 arrayed on the bolt holes 12 of the carbon ceramic brake disc 1 with the central holes aligned; Second, place the joint head 4 horizontally above the gaskets 5, and align the U-shaped card slots of the joint head 4 with the central holes of the gaskets 5; Second, pass the floating blocks 2 through the U-shaped card slots of the joint head 4, the gaskets 5, and the bolt holes 12 of the carbon ceramic brake disc 1 in sequence; Second, pass the screw rods 3 through the floating blocks 2, the U-shaped card slots of the joint head 4, the gaskets 5, and the bolt holes 12 of the carbon ceramic brake disc 1 in sequence; Finally, cooperate and lock the lock nuts 6 with the screw rods 3 to complete the assembly of a lightweight carbon ceramic brake disc assembly for a new energy vehicle.
