[0022] In the technical solution of this embodiment, as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 shown, a device for measuring the starting force of a disc brake includes: a base 11, a tappet support plate 12, a connecting plate 13, a screw fixing plate 14, a rotatable moving screw 16, an input force sensor 17, and a tappet 19; the tappet support plate 12 is fixed on the base 11; the connecting plate 13 is fixed on the base 11 and is spaced from the tappet support plate 12; the screw fixing plate 14 is fixed on the tappet support plate 12 through a connecting screw 15; the rotatable moving screw 16 is rotatably arranged on the screw fixing plate 14; the input force sensor 17 is connected to the rotatable moving screw 16 through a sleeve 18; the tappet 19 is movably inserted into the tappet support plate 12, and one end of the tappet 19 is connected to the input force sensor 17, and the other end is used to abut against the disc brake.

[0023] Furthermore, the device for measuring the starting force of a disc brake further includes two first reinforcing rib blocks 21. Two adjacent sides of the first reinforcing rib blocks 21 are respectively fixed to the tappet support plate 12 and the base 11, and the two first reinforcing rib blocks 21 are respectively located on both sides of the tappet support plate 12.

[0024] Further, the device for measuring the starting force of the disc brake further includes a second reinforcing rib block 22. Two adjacent sides of the second reinforcing rib block 22 are respectively fixed to the base 11 and the connecting plate 13, and the second reinforcing rib block 22 is located on the side of the connecting plate 13 away from the tappet support plate 12.

[0025] Further, a groove 111 is provided on the base 11, and the connecting plate 13 is fixed in the groove 111.

[0026] Further, threads are provided at both ends of the connecting screw 15 and are respectively fixed to the screw fixing plate 14 and the tappet support plate 12 through nuts.

[0027] Principle of use: Place the connecting plate 13 in the groove 111 of the base 11 and fixedly connect it to the base 11. Fix the brake caliper to the connecting plate 13 and fix the tappet support plate 12 on the base 11 and fixedly connect it to the base 11. The connecting screw 15 is arranged in the threaded hole positions on both sides of the tappet 19 and the connecting plate 13 and is fixedly connected to the hole positions on both sides of the screw fixing plate 14. Sequentially connect the rotatable screw, the sleeve 18, the input force sensor 17, and the tappet 19 in an orderly manner along the axis of the brake caliper.
