Figure 4 The side view structure of the protective cover assembled on the brake is shown; Figure 1and Figure 2 As shown, the protective cover 100 provided in the embodiment of the present invention has a semi-annular body, specifically comprising:

[0029] The mounting portion 110 is provided at both ends of the semi-circular body;

[0030] The protection portion 120 is connected between the two mounting portions 110;

[0031] The first reinforcing rib 130 is provided at the connection portion between the protection portion 120 and the mounting portion 110;

[0032] At least one second reinforcing rib 140 is provided on the protective portion 120 , and an extending direction of the second reinforcing rib 140 is consistent with an extending direction of the protective portion 120 ;

[0033] The ventilation slots 150 are provided on the protection portion 120 .

[0034] The semi-annular body may be any suitable shape such as a circular arc or an elliptical arc, depending on the brake 200 to which the protective cover 100 is assembled, as long as it is firmly assembled with the brake 200 and effectively protects the brake disc 220 .

[0035] The protective cover 100 provided by the present invention securely fits the brake 200 installation space and the shape of the brake disc 220 through its semi-circular body, effectively shielding and protecting the brake disc 220. Specifically, the protective cover 100 of the present invention is assembled to the inner side of the brake 200 via mounting portions 110 disposed at both ends of the semi-circular body. The exposed portion of the brake disc 220 is shielded and protected by an arc-shaped protective portion 120 connected between the mounting portions 110. A first reinforcing rib 130 is provided at the connection between the protective portion 120 and the mounting portion 110 to enhance the connection strength and rigidity. The protective portion 120 is also provided with a second reinforcing rib 140 extending in the same direction as the protective portion 120, further enhancing the structural strength and rigidity of the protective portion 120 and preventing resonance and abnormal noise. Furthermore, the protective portion 120 is provided with ventilation slots 150 to promote air circulation, enhance heat dissipation, and quickly dissipate heat generated during braking, thereby improving braking performance.

[0036] The protective cover 100 of the present invention can be specifically assembled on the brake caliper body 210 of the brake 200, and through the protective part 120, it can be clearance-matched with the brake disc 220 to protect the brake disc 220 from being contaminated by mud, water, and gravel, avoid abnormal wear of the brake 200, extend the life of the brake 200, and thereby improve the braking force stability and enhance vehicle safety.

[0037] In some embodiments, the protective cover 100 further includes a bent portion 160 connecting the mounting portion 110 and the protective portion 120 ; wherein the first reinforcing rib 130 extends from the mounting portion 110 along the bent portion 160 to the protective portion 120 .

[0038] The bent portion 160 staggers the guard portion 120 and the mounting portion 110, thereby ensuring that the guard portion 120 is mounted on the brake caliper body 210 and that the mounting portion 110 is loosely fitted with the brake disc 220. The bent portion 160 may be formed into an inclined surface structure or other structure that staggers the guard portion 120 and the mounting portion 110 so that they are not in the same plane, such as a stepped structure.

[0039] In some embodiments, the mounting portion 110 is provided with a relief hollow structure 111. The relief hollow structure 111 not only reduces weight but also allows for the relief of existing bolts 211 of the brake caliper body 210, eliminating the need to modify the existing component structure of the brake 200. This facilitates assembly of the protective cover 100 and makes it suitable for a variety of different brakes.

[0040] In some embodiments, the mounting portion 110 is provided with an assembly interface 112. The assembly interface 112 is used to assemble the protective cover 100 with the brake caliper body 210.

In another example, the assembly interface 112 may be a snap-fit ​​structure, through which the protective cover 100 can be assembled with the brake caliper body 210 via a snap-fit ​​connection.

[0041] In some embodiments, the protective portion 120 is provided with a sensor mounting interface 121. This interface 121 provides space for installing a sensor to facilitate detection of the brake 200. For example, a high-temperature alarm sensor can be installed in the interface 121 to provide a timely warning of high-temperature risks in the brake 200 and ensure vehicle safety.

[0042] In some embodiments, two second reinforcing ribs 140 are included. A first second reinforcing rib 140a extends along the inner arcuate edge of the protective portion 120, effectively enhancing the structural strength of the inner side of the protective portion 120. A second second reinforcing rib 140b extends along the curved body of the protective portion 120, effectively enhancing the structural strength of the main body and outer side of the protective portion 120. The coordination of the first second reinforcing rib 140a and the second second reinforcing rib 140b, as analyzed by software, significantly improves the inherent strength and rigidity of the protective portion 120, enabling the protective portion 120 to effectively block mud, water, and gravel while preventing resonance and abnormal noise.

[0043] In some embodiments, ventilation slots 150 are located on the second second reinforcing rib 140b. This ensures ventilation and heat dissipation while preventing the structural strength of the protective portion 120 from being compromised by the ventilation slots 150. The number, size, and spacing of the ventilation slots 150 can be customized as needed, as long as they enhance heat dissipation without compromising the structural strength of the protective portion 120.

[0044] In some embodiments, a guide skirt 124 is provided on the outer arc edge of the protective portion 120. The guide skirt 124 can prevent accumulation of dust, impurities, etc., and improve the protective effect of the protective cover 100.

[0045] In the above embodiments, the protective cover 100 may be a stamped part. The stamping process utilizes die pressure to deform sheet metal, resulting in a part with a specific shape, size, and performance. Designing the protective cover 100 as a stamped part allows it to be formed into a custom-shaped stamped structure according to the desired shape. This eliminates the need to modify the existing component structure of the brake 200, enabling the protective cover 100 to be readily installed. Furthermore, the protective cover 100 can be stamped into different styles to suit different brake applications.

[0046] The present invention also provides a brake, referring to Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the brake 200 is equipped with a protective cover 100 as described in any of the above embodiments, wherein the protective cover 100 is installed on the brake caliper body 210 of the brake 200 through the mounting portion 110, and the protective cover 100 is clearance-matched with the brake disc 220 of the brake 200 through the protective portion 120.

[0047] The protective cover 100, through its semi-annular body, adapts to the installation space of the brake 200 and the shape and contour of the brake disc 220, achieving a secure assembly with the brake 200 and effectively shielding and protecting the brake disc 220 from contamination by mud, water, and gravel, preventing abnormal wear of the brake 200, extending the life of the brake 200, and thereby improving braking force stability and enhancing vehicle safety. Specifically, the protective cover 100 is assembled with the brake caliper body 210 via mounting portions 110 disposed at both ends of the semi-annular body. The exposed portion of the brake disc 220 is shielded and protected by an arc-shaped protective portion 120 connected between the mounting portions 110. A first reinforcing rib 130 is provided at the connection between the protective portion 120 and the mounting portion 110 to enhance the connection strength and rigidity. The protective portion 120 is also provided with a second reinforcing rib 140 extending in the same direction as the protective portion 120, further enhancing the structural strength and rigidity of the protective portion 120 and preventing resonance and abnormal noise. In addition, the protective part 120 is provided with ventilation slots 150 and a reasonable gap is reserved between the protective part 120 and the brake disc 220, which can promote air circulation, enhance heat dissipation capacity, quickly dissipate the heat generated during braking, and improve the braking performance of the brake 200.
