[0019] Two retractable thimbles 3 are provided on the brake pad 2 to monitor the wear in real time. When the brake pad 2 wears thin, the thimble 3 contacts the wheel and moves backward, causing the bracket 4 to move backward synchronously. At this time, the position sensor 5 detects the position value of the position distance 4 and sends it to the controller 6. The controller 6 opens the adjusting mechanism to drive the brake pad 2 to wear forward by the same distance, greatly improving the accuracy of the brake pad 2 wear adjustment, ensuring the contact friction force between the brake pad 2 and the wheel, thereby ensuring the braking effect and further increasing the safety of riding.
