DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0022] The present application will be further described in detail below in combination with the drawings and examples.
[0023] Example 1
[0024] The brake return mechanism comprises a support body, a guide rod 6 and a return spring 7, one end of the guide rod 6 is used for connecting with a brake block 8, a supporting surface is arranged on the guide rod 6, one end of the return spring 7 is supported on the support body, and the other end is supported on the supporting surface, and the support body does not move during braking and returning. The brake return mechanism is installed on a clamp body and connected with the brake block 8, the brake block 8 generally comprises a back plate and a friction plate installed on the back plate, the guide rod 6 is connected to the back plate, the back plate can drive the guide rod 6 to move synchronously, and the guide rod 6 can compress the return spring 7 when moving, and the return spring 7 can drive the guide rod 6 to return after the brake force is removed, so as to drive the brake block 8 to return.
[0025] The elastic member 9 is located at one end of the guide rod 6 connected with the brake block 8, and the elastic member 9 and the guide rod 6 are integrally formed or the elastic member 9 and the guide rod 6 are detachably fixedly connected; the elastic member 9 comprises elastic claws 10, and the elastic claws 10 are located around the guide rod 6 and are used for limiting relative displacement of the guide rod 6 and the brake block 8. In the embodiment, the elastic member 9 is a ring structure and is wrapped around the guide rod 6, and of course the elastic member 9 can be integrally formed with the guide rod 6. The elastic claws 10 are located around the guide rod 6 and extend outward, and a space for deformation is formed between the elastic claws 10 and the guide rod 6, and the space can absorb fluctuations caused by shaking and vibration of the brake block 8.
[0026] In the embodiment, gaps 13 are formed between the elastic claws 10, and the gaps 13 between adjacent elastic claws 10 provide the possibility of deformation of the elastic claws 10. In the scheme, the number of elastic claws 10 is multiple, and the elastic claws 10 are arranged in the circumferential direction of the side surface of the guide rod 6, and gaps 13 are formed between the elastic claws 10.
[0027] In the scheme, the widths of the elastic claws 10 are different or the widths of the elastic claws 10 are not completely the same. That is, the problem that the elastic claws 10 are easily detached when the shapes of the elastic claws 10 are the same and uniformly distributed in the circumferential direction is avoided. If the widths of the elastic claws 10 are the same, the elastic member 9 and the adjusting rod will rotate slightly due to vibration during braking, and the rotation angle will gradually increase with the working time, so that as long as one elastic claw 10 is clamped into the groove of the friction plate due to rotation, the other elastic claws 10 will also be clamped, and the risk of overall detachment will be increased. After setting elastic claws 10 with different widths, they need to be rotated into grooves with corresponding widths at the same time to be detached, which greatly increases the reliability.
[0028] Specifically in the present scheme, the elastic member 9 is detachably connected with the guide rod 6, the elastic member 9 is an independent integral structure, the guide rod 6 is provided with an annular mounting groove 14 on the outer side surface thereof, the elastic member 9 comprises a mounting ring 15, the elastic claw 10 is fixedly connected on the mounting ring 15, and the mounting ring 15 is sleeved in the mounting groove 14 and fixedly connected with the guide rod 6. The inner annular surface of the mounting ring 15 has the same slope as the outer side surface of the mounting groove 14, and the outer diameter of the outer side surface of the mounting groove 14 is larger than the diameter of the corresponding inner annular surface of the mounting ring 15.
[0029] In the present scheme, the cross-sectional diameter of the side surface of the mounting groove 14 is smaller near the spring end and larger away from the spring end, the inner side surface of the mounting ring 15 is matched with the shape of the side surface of the mounting groove 14, and the mounting ring 15 is changed into a non-closed annular structure by being provided with a penetrating deformation opening 16.
[0030] The inner diameter of the mounting ring 15 is smaller than the outer diameter of the outer side surface of the mounting groove 14; the guide rod 6 is provided with a limiting ring 19, the limiting ring 19 is located at the two axial ends of the outer side surface of the mounting groove 14, the limiting ring 19 and the guide rod 6 enclose a limiting groove, the outer diameter of the cross section of the outer side surface of the limiting groove is at least partially larger than the outer diameter of the main rod part 18 of the guide rod 6, and the mounting ring 15 is located between the limiting rings 19 and is limited to abut on the two limiting rings 19 at the two ends. The inner hole diameter of the limiting ring 19 can achieve the above function, and the specific size structure design can be referred to the drawings; wherein the limiting ring 19 is provided with a guide block 20, and the mounting ring is provided with a guide groove corresponding to the guide block 20.
[0031] In the present scheme, the end of the guide rod 6 away from the brake block 8 is provided with an adjusting hole 17. The adjusting hole 17 is used for rotating the guide rod 6 to adjust the position of the elastic claw 10, so that the elastic claw 10 and the guide rod 6 can be separated from the assembly structure.
