Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of clutches, in particular to a clutch brake shoe. Background Art

[0002] Clutches are widely used to brake or transmit power between rotating parts. Mechanical clutches are generally used, with a push mechanism to open and close the clutch. With technological advancements, more and more clutches are now using airbags as the clutch's power source. Regardless of the type of clutch, braking or transmission is achieved through friction plates, which are fixed to the brake shoe.

[0003] The patent document with publication number CN212584167U discloses an anti-loosening brake shoe assembly for a pneumatic tire clutch, comprising a heat dissipation plate, a curved surface is provided on one side of the heat dissipation plate, a brake pad is provided on the outer side of the curved surface, a plurality of mounting holes are opened on the surface of the brake pad, and a plurality of support columns are vertically provided inside the heat dissipation plate, a support block is provided near the inner side of the curved surface of the heat dissipation plate, and a shock absorber seat is installed on one end of the support column near the support block, and a positioning hole is opened on the surface of the support block near the mounting hole, and a fixing mechanism is provided in the heat dissipation plate near the mounting hole, and the fixing mechanism includes a rivet, which is interference fit with the positioning hole, the top of the rivet passes through the top of the support block and is provided with a threaded end, and the threaded end is threadedly connected to a nut; the shock absorber seat includes a shell, a support plate is horizontally provided inside the shell, the bottom end of the support column passes through the top of the shell and pressure plates are provided on both sides, and a spring is provided between the pressure plate and the inner wall of the shell. The heat sink and the brake pad are connected by a fixing mechanism, and countersunk holes are set at intervals on the working surface of the brake pad, which makes the entire working surface incomplete and limits the thickness that can be worn, affecting the friction effect and life. In addition, drilling through holes and countersunk holes is labor-intensive and time-consuming. In addition, when the surface of the brake pad is worn, the countersunk holes of the fixing mechanism will be exposed, which will scratch the friction hub and cause damage to the friction hub.

[0004] To address the aforementioned technical issues, patent publication CN116006590A discloses a dovetail connection method and device for a clutch brake shoe and friction plate. Parallel dovetail grooves are spaced apart on the non-working back surface of the friction plate, the positions of which correspond to the inner holes of the brake shoe. A fixed plate comprises a central base plate and two inclined plates, the angles of which correspond to the angles of the dovetail grooves. Bolt holes are spaced apart on the fixed plate. Connecting bolts are placed in the bolt holes, and the friction plate is placed on the brake shoe. The connecting bolts penetrate through the through holes in the inner hole of the brake shoe. A wrench is used to insert a nut into the inner hole of the brake shoe and screw it into the connecting bolt, thereby securing the friction plate and brake shoe together. However, securing the fixing plate to the brake shoe is cumbersome, and an inner hole must be drilled in the brake shoe. This requires high brake shoe thickness and complicated processing, making it unsuitable for use with small-diameter pneumatic clutches. Utility Model Content

[0024] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

[0025] Example 1: Reference Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, a clutch brake shoe includes an arc-shaped tile 8. The left and right ends and the rear end of the tile 8 are processed with folded edges 3 with the free ends extending toward the friction hub. A mounting cavity is formed between the folded edges 3 and the tile 8. The arc-shaped brake pad 1 is located in the mounting cavity. The working surface of the brake pad 1 protrudes to the outside of the mounting cavity, and the outer arc surface of the brake pad 1 is tightly against the inner arc surface of the tile 8.

[0026] A plurality of ridges 5 are provided on the inner edge of the tile 8, and a groove 4 corresponding to the ridges 5 is provided on the outer edge of the brake pad 1. The ridges 5 are snap-fitted into the corresponding grooves 4. The ridges 5 and the grooves 4 are interference fit.

[0028] The folded edge 3 , the convex strip 5 , the clamping strip 6 and the tile 8 are integrally formed.

[0029] The front and rear ends of the outer arc surface of the tile 8 are fixed with ear plates 2. The ear plates 2 are integrally formed with the tile 8. The ear plates 2 are provided with mounting holes.

[0030] Tiles 8 are mounted on the inner side of the pneumatic clutch tube via lugs 2. When installing brake pad 1 into the mounting cavity, align groove 4 with ridge 5 and retaining strip 6 with retaining groove 9. Then, install brake pad 1 into the mounting cavity. Once installed, ridge 5 lies within groove 4, retaining strip 6 lies within retaining groove 9, and brake pad 1 and tiles 8 are stably connected. The interference fit between ridge 5 and groove 4 improves the stability of brake pad 1 within the mounting cavity.

[0031] When replacing the brake pad 1, the brake pad 1 can be directly pulled out from the installation cavity and then replaced.
