Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of automobile brakes, and in particular to a guide pin and a brake with an exhaust function. Background Art
[0002] Guide pins play a crucial role in brake design. However, the following issues often arise during the actual assembly process: Because the clearance between the bracket pin hole and the guide pin is very small, typically between 0.05 and 0.13 mm, grease is applied to the contact surface before assembly to reduce friction and wear. This can easily trap air between the guide pins during insertion into the holes, creating air lock and affecting installation accuracy. Once the guide pins are pressed into the holes, the air lock effect and the grease can cause them to partially pop out, increasing assembly complexity and requiring additional time for separate air venting, adding to the installation difficulty and time cost.

[0022] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of this application. It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments in the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other in any way.
[0023] Guide pins play a crucial role in brake design. However, the following issues often arise during the actual assembly process: Because the clearance between the bracket pin hole and the guide pin is very small, typically between 0.05 and 0.13 mm, grease is applied to the contact surface before assembly to reduce friction and wear. This can easily trap air between the guide pins during insertion into the holes, creating air lock and affecting installation accuracy. Once the guide pins are pressed into the holes, the air lock effect and the grease can cause them to partially pop out, increasing assembly complexity and requiring additional time for separate air venting, adding to the installation difficulty and time cost.
[0024] Based on this, an exemplary embodiment of the present application provides a guide pin with an exhaust function, including a sleeve section, a positioning section and an installation section connected in sequence from bottom to top, an annular positioning portion is formed on the positioning section at a position close to the sleeve section, and an annular groove is formed at a position close to the installation section; a first exhaust groove is circumferentially arranged on the annular positioning portion, and the first exhaust groove is opened along the axial direction of the positioning section from the connection with the sleeve section to the bottom of the annular groove, and is not connected to the annular groove; by setting the first exhaust groove, when installing the guide pin, the gas in the guide pin and the installation hole can be discharged along the first exhaust groove, avoiding the formation of air blockage between the guide pin and the installation hole, and can improve the installation accuracy of the guide pin; at the same time, the phenomenon of the guide pin rebounding after installation can be avoided, making the installation of the guide pin quick and convenient, and improving the installation efficiency of the guide pin.
[0025] An exemplary embodiment of the present application provides a guide pin with an exhaust function, such as Figures 1 to 3As shown, the guide pin comprises a fitting section 101, a positioning section 102, and a mounting section 103, connected sequentially from bottom to top. When mated with the brake bracket 20, the fitting section 101 is mounted within the guide pin mounting hole, while the positioning section 102 is used to position the guide pin with the guide pin dust cover 30 to prevent the guide pin from separating from the guide pin dust cover 30. A mounting hole is defined at the top of the mounting section 103. An annular positioning portion 104 is formed on the positioning section 102 near the fitting section 101, and an annular groove 105 is formed near the mounting section 103. Preferably, the diameter of the annular positioning portion 104 gradually increases, then decreases, and then increases again from the point of connection with the fitting section 101 to the annular groove 105, to facilitate installation of the guide pin and to form a tight fit with the guide pin dust cover 30, thereby enhancing the sealing effect of the guide pin. The circumferential surface of the annular positioning portion 104 is provided with a first exhaust groove 106. The first exhaust groove 106 extends along the axial direction of the positioning section 102 from the connection with the sleeve section 101 to the bottom of the annular groove 105, and is not connected to the annular groove 105. Preferably, along the axial direction of the guide pin, the distance between the first exhaust groove 106 and the annular groove 105 is greater than 0.5 mm, so that the annular positioning portion 104 and the guide pin dust cover 30 form a close contact, thereby improving the dustproof effect of the guide pin. Exemplarily, to improve the exhaust effect, multiple first exhaust grooves 106 are provided, and the multiple first exhaust grooves 106 are evenly spaced along the circumferential surface of the annular positioning portion 104. Preferably, the number of the first exhaust grooves 106 is between 3 and 6. At this time, when the guide pin is installed, the first exhaust grooves 106 allow the gas inside the guide pin mounting hole to be quickly discharged, avoiding the formation of air blockage between the guide pin and the mounting hole, and improving the installation accuracy of the guide pin; it can avoid the phenomenon of the guide pin rebounding after installation, making the installation of the guide pin quick and convenient, and improving the installation efficiency of the guide pin; at the same time, setting the first exhaust grooves 106 with a number between 3 and 6 will not affect the structural strength of the guide pin.
[0026] To enhance air venting during guide pin installation, a second air venting groove 107 extending axially along the circumferential surface of the sleeve segment 101 is formed. Preferably, multiple second air venting grooves 107 are evenly spaced along the circumferential surface of the sleeve segment 101. For example, three evenly spaced second air venting grooves 107 are provided on the sleeve segment 101. Furthermore, to ensure the structural strength of the guide pin, the second air venting grooves 107 and the first air venting grooves 106 are not aligned on the same straight line.
[0027] An exemplary embodiment of the present application provides a brake, such as Figure 4As shown, the brake includes a guide pin 10 with an exhaust function and a brake bracket 20. The brake bracket 20 includes a symmetrically arranged guide pin mounting seat, in which a guide pin mounting hole is formed; a guide pin dust cover 30 is installed at the end of the guide pin mounting hole, and the guide pin dust cover 30 can seal the guide pin mounting seat and the guide pin 10 to prevent dust and impurities from entering the guide pin mounting hole; the guide pin 10 is installed in the guide pin dust cover 30. During the installation of the guide pin 10, the first exhaust groove 106 and the second exhaust groove 107 on the guide pin can exhaust the gas in the guide pin mounting hole, preventing the formation of air blockage between the guide pin 10 and the guide pin mounting hole, so as to quickly install the guide pin. Preferably, the end of the guide pin dust cover 30 has an annular protrusion, which can be clamped in the annular groove 105 of the guide pin 10, so that the guide pin 10 and the guide pin dust cover 30 are tightly connected, thereby improving the sealing effect of the guide pin 10.
[0028] The assembly process of the brake of the present application is as follows: the brake bracket 20 is mounted on an automatic grease or oiling device, which is then activated. The device automatically injects a fixed amount of grease or lubricating oil into the guide pin mounting hole of the brake bracket 20 through a metering valve. A small amount of grease or lubricating oil is then applied to the guide pin dust cover 30 and installed in the guide pin mounting hole of the brake bracket 20. The guide pin 10 is passed through the inner hole of the guide pin dust cover 30 and into the guide pin mounting hole. The guide pin 10 is then pressed until the annular protrusion on the guide pin dust cover 30 engages with the annular groove 105 of the guide pin 10. During the pressing process of the guide pin 10, the air in the guide pin mounting hole is mixed and discharged to the outside of the guide pin mounting hole through the first and second exhaust grooves 106 and 107, thereby preventing the guide pin 10 from forming a sealed space between the guide pin 10 and the guide pin mounting hole. This prevents the installed guide pin 10 from rebounding.
