[0031] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0032] like Figures 1-8 As shown, a mechanical disc brake device according to an embodiment of the present invention may include a first housing 1, a second housing 3, a first braking mechanism 6, a second braking mechanism 7, a connecting mechanism 8, and a brake control mechanism 9.

[0033] Specifically, the first housing 1 has a first cavity 2; the second housing 3 has a second cavity 4, and the first housing 1 and the second housing 3 are connected by a connector 5; the first braking mechanism 6 is fixedly installed in the first cavity 2, and the connector 5 passes through the first braking mechanism 6; the second braking mechanism 7 is movably installed in the second cavity 4, and the connector 5 passes through the second braking mechanism 7; the connecting mechanism 8 is integrally formed with the second housing 3, and the connecting mechanism 8 has a connecting chamber that runs through the front and rear, and the connecting chamber communicates with the second cavity 4; the brake control mechanism 9 may include a drive screw 10, a rocker arm 11, and an elastic element 12, wherein the drive screw 10 is threadedly connected to the connecting chamber; the rocker arm 11 is fixedly connected to the end of the drive screw 10 away from the connecting mechanism 8, and the rocker arm 11 is used to drive the drive screw 10 to rotate; the elastic element 12 is connected to the rocker arm 11 and the connecting mechanism 8 assembly, and the elastic element 12 is used to drive the rocker arm 11 to reset.

[0034] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 6 As shown, the first housing 1 and the second housing 3 are provided with corresponding screw holes 13, and the connector 5 is threaded into the screw holes 13 to connect the first housing 1 and the second housing 3.

[0035] For example, the connector 5 uses bolts 33, which connect the first housing 1 and the second housing 3, allowing for assembly and disassembly via bolt connection. It should be understood that the brake disc 30 of the 34-wheel hub is located between the first housing 1 and the second housing 3, with the first braking mechanism 6 and the second braking mechanism 7 distributed on both sides of the brake disc, wherein the first braking mechanism 6 is closer to the brake disc 30 than the second braking mechanism 7. Figures 9-11As shown, a 32-wheel hub bearing is mounted on a 34-wheel hub, and a 30-brake disc is mounted on a 32-wheel hub bearing. For example, the 32-wheel hub bearing, the 34-wheel hub, and the 30-brake disc are fixedly connected by four 33-bolts, and the connection points of the four 33-bolts are distributed at equal angles with the center of the 34-wheel hub as the center.

[0036] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 6 As shown, the first braking mechanism 6 includes

[0037] The first brake pad includes a first fixing plate 14 and a first friction block 16. The first fixing plate 14 is fixed in the first cavity 2, and the first fixing plate 14 has symmetrically arranged first through holes 15, through which the connecting member 5 passes. The first friction block 16 is fixedly bonded to the first fixing plate 14. The second braking mechanism 7 includes a second brake pad, which includes a second fixing plate 17 and a second friction block 19. The second fixing plate 17 is located in the second cavity 4, and the second fixing plate 17 has symmetrically arranged second through holes 18, through which the connecting member 5 passes. The second friction block 19 is fixedly bonded to the second fixing plate 17.

[0038] The first friction block 16 and the second friction block 19 are made of rubber. During the braking process, the second friction block 19 and the first friction block 16 are in close contact with the brake disc to perform braking.

[0039] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a first spring 20 is fitted on the connector 5. The first spring 20 is located between the first fixing plate 14 and the second fixing plate 17. The first spring 20 is always in a compressed state.

[0040] In this embodiment of the utility model, by setting a first spring 20 and ensuring that the first spring 20 is always in a compressed state, the second braking mechanism 7 can move away from the brake disc 30 when it is not braking, and there is a certain gap between the second braking mechanism 7 and the brake disc 30.

[0041] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 6 As shown, the connecting mechanism 8 has a cylindrical structure, and the connecting cavity is provided with an internal thread that is compatible with the driving screw 10. The outer wall of the connecting mechanism 8 away from the second housing 3 is provided with a connecting groove 21 at an equal angle with the center of the circle.

[0042] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the drive screw 10 includes a threaded portion 22, a drive portion 23, and a connecting portion 24. The threaded portion 22, the drive portion 23, and the connecting portion 24 are integrally formed. The threaded portion 22 is threadedly connected to the connecting cavity. The drive portion 23 and the connecting portion 24 are located at both ends of the threaded portion 22. The drive portion 23 is located near the second braking mechanism 7. The connecting portion 24 is fixedly connected to the rocker arm 11.

[0043] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 8 As shown, the elastic element 12 is a torsion spring, which includes a spring body 25. The opposite ends of the spring body 25 extend outward to form a first spring arm 26 and a second spring arm 27. The spring body 25 is fitted onto the connecting part 24. The first spring arm 26 is connected in the connecting groove 21, and the second spring arm 27 is clamped on the rocker arm 11.

[0044] The first spring arm 26 is in a vertical position, and the second spring arm 27 is in an L-shaped position. Together with the spring body 25, they form a U-shape and are clamped onto the rocker arm 11.

[0045] When braking is applied, the rocker arm 11 drives the drive screw 10 to rotate. The drive part 23 of the drive screw 10 moves towards the second braking mechanism 7 and pushes the second braking mechanism 7 closer to the brake disc 30, thereby causing the second friction block 19 and the first friction block 16 to clamp the brake disc 30 for braking. When the control of the rocker arm 11 is released, the elastic element 12 drives the rocker arm 11 to reverse and reset to the initial state.

[0046] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 6 As shown, the connecting mechanism 8 has annular grooves at both ends, and a sealing ring 28 is installed in the annular groove. The driving screw 10 passes through the sealing ring 28.

[0047] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, the connecting mechanism 8 is integrally formed with an internally threaded connecting sleeve 29, which is used to install the bracket 31, and is mounted on the wheel hub 34 via the bracket 31. Specifically, the bracket 31 is connected to the internally threaded sleeve via a bolt 33, and a buffer pad is also installed between the bolt 33 and the internally threaded sleeve.

[0048] The mechanical disc brake device according to the embodiment of this utility model has a simple overall structure and low production cost. The rocker arm 11 drives the drive screw 10 to move, thereby driving the second braking mechanism 7 and the first braking structure to cooperate to achieve clamping and braking of the 30 brake disc. The braking method is simple.
