[0035] The technical scheme provided by the utility model is introduced below in combination with the drawings and specific embodiments.

[0036] As shown in the accompanying Figure 2 To the accompanying Figure 6 The embodiment provides an EPB motor driving assembly, which comprises a shell 1, a motor 100 and a gear transmission assembly 200.The motor 100 and the gear transmission assembly 200 are arranged in the shell 1 to protect the motor 100 and the gear transmission assembly 200 by the shell 1, and the motor 100 is drivingly connected to the gear transmission assembly 200 to transmit the generated power to the brake system through the gear transmission assembly 200, so that the parking brake function is realized.The EPB motor driving assembly is suitable for small, medium, medium-large cars and SUV models, and the utility model is not limited to this.

[0037] In combination Figure 2 And Figure 3As shown, the above-mentioned housing 1 comprises a shell 11 and a shell cover 12, wherein the shell 11 is in an L-shaped structure and has a first inner cavity 1101 and a second inner cavity 1102, the first inner cavity 1101 is located at the bottom of the second inner cavity 1102, the first inner cavity 1101 is used to accommodate the motor 100 in the embodiment, and the second inner cavity 1102 is used to accommodate the gear transmission assembly 200; the shell cover 12 is sealed and covers the shell 11, and a transmission area 1103 is formed between the shell cover 12 and the shell 11 to communicate the first inner cavity 1101 and the second inner cavity 1102, so that the motor 100 located in the first inner cavity 1101 and the gear transmission assembly 200 located in the second inner cavity 1102 can be drivingly connected through the transmission area 1103.

[0038] Reference Figure 1 As shown, in order to realize the positioning of the gear transmission assembly 200 and the motor 100 and ensure the accuracy and reliability of the EPB system, the prior art often uses a positioning plate 1' to realize the positioning installation of the gear transmission assembly 200 by sleeving the positioning plate 1' on the rotating shaft 210 of the gear transmission assembly 200 and clamping the positioning plate 1' between the gear transmission assembly 200 and the outer end cover 3'. In addition, the prior art also uses a positioning base 2' to realize the positioning installation of the motor 100 by sleeving the positioning base 2' on the transmission shaft 110 of the motor 100 and clamping the positioning base 2' between the positioning plate 1' and the motor 100. However, this positioning method undoubtedly increases the number of incoming materials during assembly, making the assembly process complicated and the structure complex, affecting the assembly efficiency, and the transmission accuracy and use reliability still have limitations, and the production cost cannot be effectively reduced.

[0039] In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, in the EPB motor drive assembly provided in the embodiment, the first positioning structure 111 is integrally formed at the first inner cavity 1101, the motor 100 is positioned in the first inner cavity 1101 through the first positioning structure 111, the second positioning structure 121 is integrally formed on the shell cover 12 relative to the position of the second inner cavity 1102, and the gear transmission assembly 200 is positioned in the second inner cavity 1102 through the second positioning structure 121, that is, the first positioning structure 111 realizes the positioning function of the positioning base 2' to the motor 100, and the second positioning structure 121 realizes the positioning function of the positioning plate 1' to the gear transmission assembly 200, so that the positioning plate 1' and the positioning base 2' are omitted. Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the first positioning structure 111 is integrally formed at the first inner cavity 1101, the motor 100 is positioned in the first inner cavity 1101 through the first positioning structure 111, the second positioning structure 121 is integrally formed on the shell cover 12 relative to the position of the second inner cavity 1102, and the gear transmission assembly 200 is positioned in the second inner cavity 1102 through the second positioning structure 121, that is, the first positioning structure 111 realizes the positioning function of the positioning base 2' to the motor 100, and the second positioning structure 121 realizes the positioning function of the positioning plate 1' to the gear transmission assembly 200, so that the positioning plate 1' and the positioning base 2' are omitted.

[0040] Specifically, one of the embodiments of the present embodiment is that, as shown in Figure 4As shown, the first positioning structure 111 is flat and extends around the axis of the first inner cavity 1101, and a first positioning hole 1111 is formed through the first positioning structure 111 along the axis of the first inner cavity 1101, and the output shaft of the motor 100 is rotatably arranged in the first positioning hole 1111. Thus, the first positioning hole 1111 can position the motor 100 by sleeving the output shaft of the motor 100, and will not affect the transmission of the motor 100. Figure 5 As shown, the second positioning structure 121 is columnar and protrudes from the inner side of the shell cover 12, and a second positioning hole 1211 is formed in the end of the second positioning structure 121, and the rotating shaft 210 of the gear transmission assembly 200 is rotatably arranged in the second positioning hole 1211, thereby achieving positioning and installation of the gear transmission assembly 200.

[0041] Thus, by arranging the first positioning structure 111 and the second positioning structure 121, the motor 100 and the gear transmission assembly 200 can be positioned and installed, and the positioning plate 1', the positioning base 2', and the pad plate 4' for buffering the positioning plate 1' and the shell cover 12 can be omitted, thereby reducing the number of parts, simplifying the assembly process and the overall structure, reducing production costs, improving assembly efficiency, effectively improving transmission accuracy and use reliability, and greatly enhancing practicality.

[0042] More specifically, referring to Figure 3 As shown, the shell 1 provided by the embodiment further includes an end cover 13, and the shell 11 is detachably connected to the end cover 13 and the shell cover 12 at both ends of the first inner cavity 1101. By the above arrangement, the motor 100 can be conveniently assembled. For example, when assembling the motor 100, the transmission shaft 110 of the motor 100 is inserted into the first inner cavity 1101 in a posture aligned with the first positioning hole 1111, the first positioning hole 1111 is accurately inserted into the first positioning hole 1111 to complete the positioning of the motor 100, and then the end cover 13 is assembled on the shell 11 to clamp and fix the motor 100 between the first positioning structure 111 and the end cover 13, thereby ensuring stability. Compared with the prior art, the shell 1 provided by the embodiment sets the shell 11 and the end cover 13 as a split structure, which can improve the convenience of assembling the motor 100 and improve the demolding precision of the shell 11, thereby preventing defects such as uneven joints at the connection between the shell 11 and the end cover 13 during integral molding, and further ensuring the positioning accuracy of the motor 100.

[0043] In the shell 11, a spacing portion 112 is further arranged between the first inner cavity 1101 and the second inner cavity 1102 to form two circular cavities in annular shape by spacing the first inner cavity 1101 and the second inner cavity 1102. In addition, a third positioning structure 122 is arranged on the shell cover 12 and connected to the spacing portion 112. The third positioning structure 122 can prevent the spacing portion 112 from being compressed and deformed by the gear transmission assembly 200, thereby ensuring that the spacing between the first inner cavity 1101 and the second inner cavity 1102 is fixed, and the structural stability of the entire shell 11 is effectively improved.

[0044] In one embodiment of the present embodiment, as shown in Figure 4 The spacing portion 112 is provided with a positioning block 1121 protruding therefrom, and the positioning block 1121 is provided with a third positioning hole 11211 opening inwardly at an end portion. In addition, the third positioning structure 122 is in the form of a column and protrudes from the inner side of the shell cover 12. The third positioning structure 122 is inserted into the third positioning hole 11211 in a limiting manner, thereby supporting the spacing portion 112 and preventing the spacing portion 112 from being deformed in the direction between the center of the first inner cavity 1101 and the center of the second inner cavity 1102.

[0045] Further, in the present embodiment, the third positioning structure 122 is in the form of a stepped column structure and includes a base column end 1221 and a guide end 1222 having cross-sectional areas that decrease successively. The guide end 1222 is arranged closer to the third positioning hole 11211 than the base column end 1221. When assembling the shell 11 and the shell cover 12, the thinner guide end 1222 of the third positioning structure 122 can be accurately inserted into the third positioning hole 11211, thereby playing a guiding and positioning role and helping to avoid inaccurate positioning due to assembly errors and improve positioning accuracy.

[0046] Since the second positioning structure 121 and the third positioning structure 122 protrude from the shell cover 12, stress concentration may occur at the connection between the second positioning structure 121 and the shell cover 12 and at the connection between the third positioning structure 122 and the shell cover 12, thereby affecting the stability of the second positioning structure 121 and the third positioning structure 122. In order to avoid the above phenomenon, in the present embodiment, as shown in Figure 6As shown, a plurality of first support rib plates 123 are fixedly connected between the second positioning structure 121 and the shell cover 12 along the circumferential direction of the second positioning structure 121; a plurality of second support rib plates 124 are fixedly connected between the third positioning structure 122 and the shell cover 12 along the circumferential direction of the third positioning structure 122. The first support rib plates 123 and the second support rib plates 124 can reduce the stress concentration phenomenon of the second positioning structure 121 and the third positioning structure 122, effectively improve the connection strength and stability between the second positioning structure 121 and the shell cover 12 and between the third positioning structure 122 and the shell cover 12, and enhance the use durability of the second positioning structure 121 and the third positioning structure 122.

[0047] Preferably, the first support rib plates 123 and the second support rib plates 124 are respectively provided with four, to meet the stability requirements of the second positioning structure 121 and the third positioning structure 122 in actual working conditions.

[0048] Continuing to refer to Figure 6 As shown, the shell cover 12 of the embodiment further has a sunken groove 125, the groove bottom of the sunken groove 125 is protrudingly provided with the second positioning structure 121, and the first support rib plate 123 is arranged in the sunken groove 125. Since the surface of the gear transmission assembly 200 facing the shell cover 12 and the surface of the motor 100 facing the shell cover 12 are not in the same vertical plane, the surface of the gear transmission assembly 200 facing the shell cover 12 is closer to the shell cover 12 than the surface of the motor 100 facing the shell cover 12, so the thickness of the shell cover 12 is mainly determined by the protruding length of the second positioning structure 121. If the sunken groove 125 is not arranged, the protruding length of the second positioning structure 121 will be longer, thereby causing the thickness of the shell cover 12 to be larger, the transmission area 1103 between the shell cover 12 and the shell 11 to be too large, and the internal space to be wasted. Therefore, by arranging the first support rib plate 123 in the sunken groove 125, the length of the second positioning structure 121 can be effectively reduced, thereby the thickness of the entire shell cover 12 can be reduced, and the situation that the transmission area 1103 is too large to cause space waste can be avoided.

[0049] Optionally, the edge of the shell cover 12 is further protrudingly provided with a fourth positioning structure 126. In one of the embodiments of the embodiment, the fourth positioning structure 126 adopts a circular arc plate shape, and three fourth positioning structures 126 are arranged at the edge of the shell cover 12 around the axis of the gear transmission assembly 200, one fourth positioning structure 126 is arranged at the end of the shell cover 12, and the remaining two fourth positioning structures 126 are arranged at the two sides of the shell cover 12. In combination with Figure 2 and Figure 5As shown, after the assembly of the EPB motor driving assembly is completed, the fourth positioning structure 126 can be inserted and clamped between the gear transmission assembly 200 and the inner side wall of the housing 11 to limit the gear transmission assembly 200 in the radial direction, so that the gear transmission assembly 200 can be further precisely positioned in cooperation with the second positioning structure 121.
