Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of brake caliper assembly and manufacturing, specifically to a grease injection fixture for the inside of a piston cover. Background Technology

[0002] Brake calipers are crucial automotive components, and with the rapid development of the automotive industry in recent years, the demands on these parts have increased significantly. The piston guard of the brake caliper is designed to prevent impurities such as mud and sand, and requires grease lubrication during assembly and operation. Currently, grease is stirred and applied to the piston guard before assembly. However, during this process, solidified grease can easily become embedded in the folds on the outside of the piston guard. During braking in a new car, the grease in these folds can liquefy upon heating and flow onto the back of the brake pads, posing a risk of contaminating other components. The most effective solution currently is to apply grease to the piston guard in a measured and targeted manner, ensuring no grease remains on the outside of the guard. However, this still carries the risk of grease liquefaction and contamination of other components. Utility Model Content

[0019] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0020] The structural schematic diagram of this utility model is shown below. Figure 1 As shown, this utility model is used for the internal grease injection process of piston cover 5, including positioning seat 1, oil receiving tray 2 and grease injection head 3;

[0021] The grease injection head 3 is provided with an oil receiving tray 2 below it. The oil receiving tray 2 is circumferentially positioned on the outer circumferential surface of the positioning seat 1. The oil receiving tray 2 is used to prevent grease from overflowing and contaminating the external workbench. The grease injection head 3 is installed on the top of the positioning seat 1. The piston cover 5 is placed on the upper end of the grease injection head 3 and is in contact with the grease injection head 3. The inside of the piston cover 5 faces the grease injection head 3. Press the grease injection button to perform the grease injection operation.

[0022] The cross-sectional view of this utility model is as follows: Figure 2 As shown, the top of the positioning seat 1 is provided with an internal threaded hole, which is fixedly connected to the lower end of the grease injection head 3 through a threaded fit. The positioning seat 1 is provided with a central through hole as an oil delivery pipe, and the top end of the oil delivery pipe is connected to the grease injection head 3. A sealing ring 4 is provided between the positioning seat 1 and the grease injection head 3 to prevent grease from overflowing.

[0023] Each end of the bottom of the positioning seat 1 has a flange mounting hole for fixing the positioning seat 1 to the external workbench.

[0024] The center of the bottom of the positioning seat 1 is provided with an oil inlet threaded hole. The upper end of the oil inlet threaded hole is connected to the bottom end of the oil pipeline. The lower end of the oil inlet threaded hole is connected to one end of the conduit 6 through a joint thread engagement with the conduit 6. The conduit 6 is also equipped with a metering pump, which can inject grease into the grease injection tool in a metered manner. The other end of the conduit 6 is connected to an external oil storage device.

[0025] Several oil outlet holes are evenly provided on the side wall of the top of the grease injection head 3. All oil outlet holes are connected to the oil supply pipe and are used to inject grease into the inside of the piston cover 5.

[0026] In practice, 12 oil outlet holes are evenly provided on the side wall of the top of the grease injection head 3.

[0027] The outer contour of the grease injection head 3 is designed according to the shape of the piston cover 5. During grease injection, the grease can be evenly applied to the inside of the piston cover 5, and the risk of grease contaminating the outside of the piston cover 5 and thus polluting other parts can be avoided.

[0028] The outer peripheral side of the grease injection head 3 is evenly provided with several radial protrusions as positioning components, which are used to match the grease injection position of the piston cover 5.

[0030] In specific implementation, the schematic diagram of applying grease to the piston cover of this utility model is shown below. Figure 3As shown, during production, the piston cover 5 is placed on the upper end of the grease injection head 3 of the grease injection fixture and in contact with the grease injection head 3. The inside of the piston cover 5 faces the grease injection head 3. Then, the grease injection button is pressed, and the metering pump on the conduit 6 generates pressure and restricts the amount of grease, so that the grease enters the oil delivery pipe in the positioning seat 1 from the external oil storage device through the conduit 6, and then enters the grease injection head 3. The grease is evenly injected into the inside of the piston cover 5 through the 12 oil outlets on the grease injection head 3.
