[0028] Reference herein to "an embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the embodiment can be included in at least one embodiment of the present application. The appearance of the phrase in various places in the specification does not necessarily all refer to the same embodiment, nor is it necessarily independent or alternative embodiments to each other. Those skilled in the art explicitly and implicitly understand that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.
[0029] The brake device for simulating racing cars on the market is either too high in cost or too hard in foot feeling. The application provides a brake device for simulating racing cars. The brake device is composed of two elastic members, such as a spring and a rubber spring, and has simple structure, low cost, two-stage foot feeling, reduced limiting feeling, and real restoration of the foot feeling. The brake device is described in detail below.
[0030] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 is a structural schematic view of an embodiment of the brake device provided by the application. Specifically, the brake device 10 comprises a base assembly 11, a pedal assembly 13 arranged on the base assembly 11, and a buffer assembly 12.
[0031] As shown in Figure 1 , the base assembly 11 is formed with an avoiding groove 111, one end of the pedal assembly 13 is connected with one end of the avoiding groove 111, and the other end of the buffer assembly 12 is connected with the other end of the avoiding groove 111, so as to support the buffer assembly 12 and the pedal assembly 13 through the avoiding groove 111. In this way, the buffer assembly 12 and the pedal assembly 13 are partially arranged in the avoiding groove 111, the overall volume of the brake device 10 is reduced, and the stability of the brake device 10 is improved.
[0032] The pedal assembly 13 is movably connected with the base assembly 11. Specifically, referring to Figure 2 again, Figure 2 is an exploded view of the brake device shown in Figure 1 , the base assembly 11 comprises two side plates 112 arranged oppositely, the two side plates 112 are respectively provided with first assembly holes (not shown in the figure), the two ends of the rotating shaft 20 are respectively arranged in the first assembly holes of the two side plates 112 arranged oppositely, and the pedal assembly 13 is movably connected with the base assembly 11 through the rotating shaft 20.
[0033] The pedal assembly 13 is used for the user to step on to simulate the brake operation. The structure of the pedal assembly 13 is known in the art, and those skilled in the art can know the structure, which is not described in detail here.
[0034] One end of the buffer assembly 12 is movably connected with the pedal assembly 13, and the other end of the buffer assembly 12 is connected with the base assembly 11. When the user steps on the pedal assembly 13, the buffer assembly 12 is used to provide elasticity and damping, so that the user can obtain the brake foot feeling.
[0035] Referring to Figure 3 and Figure 4 again, 3 is another exploded view of the brake device shown in Figure 1 , Figure 4 is Figure 1The brake device is shown in a cross-sectional structure schematic view. The buffer assembly 12 includes a connecting piece 121, a first elastic piece 122, and a second elastic piece 123. The first elastic piece 122 is formed with a hollow inner cavity 1221. The connecting piece 121 is connected to the pedal assembly 13 at one end, and connected to the first elastic piece 122 at the other end. The other end of the first elastic piece 122 is connected to the base assembly 11. The second elastic piece 123 is embedded in the hollow inner cavity 1221 at one end, and connected to the base assembly 11 at the other end. When the user steps on the pedal assembly 13, the connecting piece 121 can first compress the first elastic piece 122, and then compress the second elastic piece 123. In this way, at least two stages of foot feeling can be achieved, and the feeling of being limited can be reduced. This arrangement makes the structure of the buffer assembly 12 simple, low in cost, easy to produce, and can more realistically restore the brake foot feeling of a real car.
[0036] Further, the materials or types of the first elastic piece 122 and the second elastic piece 123 can be different. In this way, the two elastic pieces can achieve two different stages of foot feeling. For example, the material of the first elastic piece 122 can be spring steel or brass, etc. The material of the second elastic piece 123 can be plastic.
[0037] In Figure 3 In the embodiment shown, the first elastic piece 122 is a spring, and the second elastic piece 123 is a rubber spring. One end of the rubber spring is nested in the spring, and the other end of the rubber spring is connected to the base assembly 11. When the user steps on the pedal assembly 13, the spring and the rubber spring can be experienced, two different stages of foot feeling can be achieved, and the stepping foot feeling can be more realistically restored.
[0038] The length of the spring can be greater than the length of the rubber spring. That is, when the user steps on the pedal assembly 13, the spring can be first compressed to experience the elasticity and damping of the spring, and then the rubber spring can be compressed to experience the elasticity and damping of the rubber spring. In this way, two stages of foot feeling can be achieved, and the feeling of being limited is low. In other embodiments, the length of the spring can be less than the length of the rubber spring. In this way, when the user steps on the pedal assembly 13, the rubber spring can be first compressed, and then the spring can be compressed. In this way, two stages of foot feeling can also be achieved.
[0039] Further, as shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5 , Figure 5 is Figure 3The structural schematic diagram of an embodiment of the second elastic member in the brake device is shown. When the second elastic member 123 is a rubber spring, the cross-sectional area of the first end of the second elastic member 123 is greater than the cross-sectional area of the second end of the second elastic member 123. The first end of the second elastic member 123 is the end connected to the base assembly 11, and the second end of the second elastic member 123 is the end embedded in the first elastic member 122. In this way, the end with the smaller cross-sectional area of the second elastic member 123 is conveniently fitted into the hollow inner cavity 1221 of the first elastic member 122.
[0040] As shown in Figure 5 , when the second elastic member 123 is a rubber spring, the second elastic member 123 includes a main body 1231 and a plurality of spaced-apart ribs 1232 provided on the outer surface of the main body 1231. By providing the ribs 1232 on the surface of the main body 1231, a fitting buffer space between the first elastic member 122 and the second elastic member 123 can be obtained, facilitating the assembly of the second elastic member 123 and improving the reliability of the assembly of the buffer assembly 12.
[0041] Further, as shown in Figure 5 , the second elastic member 123 is formed with a cavity 1233 extending through both ends of the second elastic member 123. In this way, the weight of the second elastic member 123 can be reduced, and the fixation of the second elastic member 123 is facilitated.
[0042] As shown in Figure 3 and Figure 6 , the brake device 10 further includes a fixing member 30. One end of the fixing member 30 is connected to the base assembly 11, and the other end of the fixing member 30 is provided with a flange 31 embedded in the cavity 1233 of the second elastic member 123 to limit the second elastic member 123. The other end of the first elastic member 122 abuts against the fixing member 30. The fixing member 30 can be fixed to the base assembly 11 by a fixing hole 301 cooperating with a screw. In other embodiments, the fixing member 30 can also be adhesively fixed or clamped fixed to the base assembly 11, etc.
[0043] In the above embodiments, the first elastic member 122 is a spring, and the second elastic member 123 is a rubber spring. It can be understood that in other embodiments, the first elastic member 122 can be a rubber spring, and the second elastic member 123 can be a spring; or the first elastic member 122 can be a spring, and the second elastic member 123 can be a spring sheet, etc. The types of the first elastic member 122 and the second elastic member 123 arranged in a nested manner can be set according to requirements, as long as at least two stages of foot feeling can be achieved by the two types of elastic members.
[0044] In summary, the brake device 10 provided by the application has the buffer assembly 12 including the first elastic member 122 and the second elastic member 123 arranged in a nested manner, and the two-stage foot feeling is achieved by the elasticity and damping of the first elastic member 122 and the second elastic member 123, that is, the K value is adjusted by matching elastic members with different hardness, the structure is simple, easy to produce, and low in cost, and the limiting feeling of the brake device 10 can be reduced, and the real pedal feeling can be restored more truly.
