When in use, first, the right brake and the left brake remain unchanged, and the flexible cables of the brake are retained; a pre-pressure spring and an electric push rod or an electro-hydraulic push rod are added between the connecting rings. The pressing force of the pre-pressure spring is adjusted through the pre-pressure adjusting nut and the screw rod body, and the right brake flexible cable and the left brake flexible cable are pulled to achieve the brake holding strength of the brake. Before the vehicle travels, by pulling the electronic parking switch through the relay, an electrical signal is given to the motor of the electric push rod or the electro-hydraulic push rod, and the electric push rod or the electro-hydraulic push rod applies an opposite thrust to overcome the resistance of the pre-pressure spring, so that the right brake flexible cable and the left brake flexible cable are released, and the right brake and the left brake are loosened, and the vehicle travels. During the driving process, the hydraulic brake of the service brake works normally. When parking, the electronic parking switch is pressed down, the electric push rod automatically retracts, and the pre-pressure spring restores the pre-pressing force to maintain the brake.

[0023] Refer to Figures 1 to 4 for a further description of an embodiment of a parking device for an electric vehicle of the present utility model.

[0024] The utility model provides a parking device for an electric vehicle. The electric push rod 3, telescopic rod 7, balancer 8, right brake flexible cable 9, left brake flexible cable 10, right brake 11, left brake 12, rear axle body 14 and side block 16 used in this application are all products that can be directly purchased on the market. Their principles and connection methods are all prior arts well-known to those skilled in the art, so they will not be elaborated here. It includes a preload adjusting nut 1. A screw rod body 2 is arranged inside the preload adjusting nut 1. An electric push rod 3 is arranged on the back of the screw rod body 2. A connecting ring 4 is installed on the back of the electric push rod 3. A preload spring 5 is arranged on the back of the connecting ring 4;

[0025] A connecting plate 6 is installed on the back of the preload spring 5. A telescopic rod 7 is arranged between the connecting plate 6 and the connecting ring 4. Two groups of telescopic rods 7 are provided;

[0026] Balancer 8 is installed on the back of the connecting plate 6. The right brake cable pull wire 9 and the left brake cable pull wire 10 are successively installed on the back of the balancer 8 from left to right. The back of the right brake cable pull wire 9 is connected to the right brake 11, and the back of the left brake cable pull wire 10 is connected to the left brake 12. The back of the right brake 11 is connected to the connecting frame 13. One end of the connecting frame 13 away from the right brake 11 is installed with the left brake 12. First, keep the right brake 11 and the left brake 12 unchanged, and retain the flexible cable of the brake. Add a preloading spring 5 and an electric push rod 3 or an electro-hydraulic push rod between the connecting rings 4. Adjust the pressing force of the preloading spring 5 through the preloading adjusting nut 1 and the screw body 2, and pull the right brake cable pull wire 9 and the left brake cable pull wire 10 to achieve the brake holding strength of the brake. Before the vehicle travels, by pulling the electronic parking switch through the relay, an electrical signal is given to the electric push rod 3 or the electro-hydraulic push rod motor. The electric push rod 3 or the electro-hydraulic push rod exerts an opposite thrust to overcome the resistance of the preloading spring 5, so that the right brake cable pull wire 9 and the left brake cable pull wire 10 are released, and the right brake 11 and the left brake 12 are loosened, and the vehicle travels. During the driving process, the service brake hydraulic brake works normally. When parking, press the electronic parking switch, and the electric push rod 3 automatically retracts, and the preloading spring 5 restores the preloading force to maintain the brake. The key to this design is to solve the problem that the motor and the rear axle components of the conventional low-speed electric vehicle do not need to be modified. Adopt electronic parking to reduce the operating force, avoid the risk of accidental or improper slipping of the vehicle due to manual operation of the handbrake, and achieve automatic parking of the vehicle without power, solve the risk of the vehicle slipping when parked on a heavy-load large slope. The existing vehicle rear axle motor does not need to be modified, and the production cost of the retrofit is relatively high compared with the high cost of automotive electronic parking. The pulling force of the right brake cable pull wire 9 and the left brake cable pull wire 10 is large, avoiding human factor control and the risk of the handbrake not being pulled in place and the vehicle slipping. When the vehicle stops and the parking toggle switch returns to its position, the electric push rod 3 returns to its position. Even if the vehicle loses power, the vehicle is still parked. Only when there is power, the vehicle will move and be driven manually, improving safety. Adopt the preloading spring 5 to pre-tension the right brake cable pull wire 9 and the left brake cable pull wire 10 to achieve vehicle braking. Use the electric push rod 3 or the electro-hydraulic push rod to release the preloading spring 5, and the right brake cable pull wire 9 and the left brake cable pull wire 10 return to their positions to achieve the release of vehicle braking. Adopt an electronic switch + relay to control the bidirectional movement of the electric push rod 3 or the electro-hydraulic push rod.

[0027] The outer surface of the connecting frame 13 is provided with a rear axle body 14, and the outer surface of the rear axle body 14 is installed with a motor body 15. Through the design of the rear axle body 14 and the motor body 15, the whole can be driven.

A connecting block 17 is provided on the top surface of the side block 16. The lower surface of the left brake flexible cable 10 is provided with a first support ring 18. The first support ring 18 has the same structure as the second support ring 19. First, it is connected to an external connecting member through the side block 16 and the connecting block 17. Thus, the position of the right brake flexible cable 9 can be limited through the design of the second support ring 19. Similarly, the first support ring 18 can also limit and convey the left brake flexible cable 10, preventing the right brake flexible cable 9 and the left brake flexible cable 10 from not being able to move in real time during operation, and the overall movement effect is good.
