Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of disc brakes, in particular to an automatic return device for a hydraulic disc brake. Background Art

[0002] Disc brakes are hydraulically controlled. Their main components include the brake disc, wheel cylinder, caliper, and oil pipes. Disc brakes offer fast heat dissipation, are lightweight, simple in construction, and easy to adjust. They are particularly resistant to high temperatures under high loads, provide stable braking, and are resilient to muddy and watery conditions. For winter driving and adverse road conditions, many cars use flat, perforated, or grooved discs. The grooved disc offers superior braking performance and ventilation and heat dissipation. Made of alloy steel, the disc is fixed to the wheel and rotates with it. The wheel cylinder is fixed to the brake baseplate and remains stationary. The two friction pads of the brake caliper are mounted on either side of the brake disc. The wheel cylinder's piston, acting under the hydraulic pressure delivered by the oil pipe, pushes the friction pads against the brake disc, generating friction braking. This action is like clamping a rotating disc with pliers to force it to stop. Compared to drum brakes, disc brakes have a flat working surface and heat transfer from both sides, making the disc easy to cool as it rotates and less prone to significant deformation. This results in more stable braking performance. After prolonged use, the brake disc expands due to high temperatures, enhancing braking action. Drum brakes, on the other hand, only transfer heat from one side, resulting in a large temperature difference between the inside and outside, which can easily cause deformation of the brake drum. Furthermore, after prolonged braking, the drum expands due to high temperatures, reducing braking performance. Furthermore, disc brakes offer a simpler structure, easier maintenance, and easy automatic adjustment of the brake clearance.

[0003] Authorization publication number CN218377419U discloses an automatic return device for a hydraulic disc brake. This patented technology involves placing the device in its intended position and injecting hydraulic oil into a cavity through an oil pipe. This allows the hydraulic oil to push the brake pad through the cavity, causing it to contact the brake disc. Simultaneously, the brake pad, through a connecting frame, pulls on a return spring to contract. When braking is stopped, the compressed return spring pushes the connecting frame to the right, causing the connecting frame to return the brake pad. The return spring's tightness is adjusted by a compression structure, protected by a protective structure, and guided by a guide structure. However, this solution uses a return spring to return the brake pad, which has numerous drawbacks. For example, the return spring may permanently deform or break over time, making it unsuitable for high-precision mechanical equipment because its elastic modulus has certain errors. Furthermore, its performance may be affected to a certain extent when used in high or low temperature environments. Therefore, a hydraulic disc brake automatic return device is needed to address these issues. Utility Model Content
