AI Technical Summary
In wheeled excavators, insufficient return spring force in the service brake piston causes the friction pad assembly to remain in a semi-braking state for extended periods, resulting in friction pad slippage and abrasion, reducing braking reliability and shortening lifespan.
A pin is installed between the parking brake piston and the service brake piston to guide and fix the pin to the service brake piston, preventing the transmission of axial thrust during driving. The friction plate assembly is pressed by adjusting bolts and a return spring to ensure that the friction plate assembly is not pressed during driving. The switching between parking and service brakes is achieved by combining the elasticity of the disc spring.
To prevent the friction pad assembly from being in a semi-braking state during vehicle operation, reduce wear, extend the life of the friction pad assembly and return spring, improve the reliability of vehicle braking, and extend the service life of wet brakes.
