The connecting piece penetrates the sleeve, a connecting column is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the sleeve, a protective sleeve is arranged on the outer surface of the spring body, and a high-temperature resistant layer and a wear-resistant layer are sequentially arranged on the outer surface of the protective sleeve.
[0007] Further, a chute is provided on the outer surface of the connecting column, a slider is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the protective sleeve, and the slider is slidably connected to the chute.
[0008] Further, damping grooves are provided on the outer surfaces of the two groups of hook rings. There are multiple groups of the damping grooves, and friction sheets are arranged inside the multiple groups of damping grooves.
[0009] Further, the spring body is a component made of a titanium alloy wire material, and the protective sleeve is a component made of a polyurethane material.
[0010] Furthermore, the high-temperature resistant layer is a component made of a polytetrafluoroethylene material, and the wear-resistant layer is a component made of an epoxy resin material.
[0011] Furthermore, the friction plate is a component made of a carbon fiber composite material.

[0019] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0020] To further understand the content of the present utility model, the present utility model will be described in detail in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0021] Combined with Figures 1-4 , a brake return spring includes a sleeve 1, a spring body 2 disposed inside the sleeve 1, connecting members 21 disposed at both ends of the spring body 2, and hook rings 4 disposed at one ends of two groups of connecting members 21. The connecting members 21 penetrate the sleeve 1. A connecting column 3 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the sleeve 1. A protective sleeve 5 is disposed on the outer surface of the spring body 2. A high-temperature resistant layer 52 and a wear-resistant layer 53 are sequentially disposed on the outer surface of the protective sleeve 5.
[0022] The following further describes the present utility model in conjunction with embodiments.
[0023] Embodiment 1:
[0024] Please refer to Figures 2-4 , a sliding groove 31 is provided on the outer surface of the connecting column 3, and a sliding block 51 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the protective sleeve 5. The sliding block 51 is slidably connected to the sliding groove 31. The cooperation between the sliding block 51 and the sliding groove 31 facilitates guiding the protective sleeve 5 to move along a predetermined path when the spring body 2 is compressed or extended, ensuring smooth movement of the spring body 2, preventing the protective sleeve 5 from being twisted or deviated, and enhancing stability and reliability.
[0025] Damping grooves 41 are provided on the outer surfaces of both groups of hook rings 4. There are multiple groups of damping grooves 41. Friction sheets are provided inside all the multiple groups of damping grooves 41. The friction sheets inside the damping grooves 41 are convenient for generating additional frictional force when the hook rings 4 are subjected to dynamic stress, preventing the hook rings 4 from falling off.
[0026] The spring body 2 is a component made of a titanium alloy wire material, and the protective sleeve 5 is a component made of a polyurethane material. Polyurethane is a highly flexible and wear-resistant material. As the protective sleeve 5, it is convenient for effectively resisting external physical damage and chemical corrosion, protecting the spring body 2 from damage, and its elastic characteristics can also absorb a part of vibration, further improving smoothness.
[0027] The high-temperature resistant layer 52 is a component made of a polytetrafluoroethylene material, and the wear-resistant layer 53 is a component made of an epoxy resin material. The polytetrafluoroethylene material has extremely high chemical inertness and excellent heat-resistant performance, and can maintain good stability and low friction characteristics in a high-temperature environment, which is convenient for protecting the protective sleeve 5 from high-temperature damage. As the wear-resistant layer 53, the epoxy resin has good hardness and mechanical strength, can withstand large frictional forces and impacts, and protects the spring body 2 from damage.
[0028] The friction plate is a component made of a carbon fiber composite material. The carbon fiber composite material has good wear resistance and low wear on the friction pair material, which is not only convenient for extending the service life of the friction plate itself, but also can protect the surface in contact with it.
[0029] During use, the protective sleeve 5 on the outer surface of the spring body 2 not only provides physical isolation, but also reduces the erosion of environmental factors on the spring body 2 through the combined action of the high-temperature resistant layer 52 and the wear-resistant layer 53 to maintain the stable performance of the spring body 2. The high-temperature resistant layer 52 on the outer surface of the protective sleeve 5 is convenient for protecting the spring body 2 from high-temperature damage, especially in the case of frequent braking resulting in temperature rise, which is convenient for effectively extending the service life of the spring body 2. The wear-resistant layer 53 reduces the friction between the protective sleeve 5 and the inner wall of the sleeve 1 or other possible contact components during the rebound process of the spring body 2, reduces wear, and through the cooperation of the slider 51 and the chute 31, it is convenient to guide the protective sleeve 5 to move along a predetermined path when the spring body 2 compresses or extends, ensuring smooth movement of the spring body 2, preventing the protective sleeve 5 from twisting or deviating, and enhancing stability and reliability. The friction plate inside the damping groove 41 is convenient for generating additional frictional force when the hook ring 4 is subjected to dynamic stress, preventing the hook ring 4 from falling off.
