[0022] Embodiment: see Figs. 1-3 As shown in a safety brake device for a ship lift balance winding drum, comprising left and right symmetrical brake units, the brake unit comprises a body 1, the inner upper part of the body 1 is provided with a hydraulic chamber, a piston 2 is arranged in the hydraulic chamber, one side of the body 1 is provided with a brake shoe assembly 7, the brake shoe assembly 7 comprises a shoe 700, a brake lining 701 and a brake pad 702, the shoe 700 is installed on one side of the body 1 through a plurality of reset spring assemblies 8, the outer side of the shoe 700 is provided with the brake lining 701, the outer side of the brake lining 701 is provided with the brake pad 702, when the piston 2 advances, the front stroke end of the piston 2 is in spherical contact with the shoe 700. The piston 2 and the shoe 700 adopt spherical contact, in the running process, when the brake disc 10 is abutted against the brake pad 702 due to large axial movement, because the shoe 700 is in spherical contact with the piston 2, the shoe 700 has a certain follow-up along the spherical surface, so that abnormal wear caused by the non-parallel friction surface between the brake disc and the shoe 700 can be avoided.
[0023] More specifically, the front stroke end of the piston 2 is provided with a convex ball head structure, and the inner wall of the shoe 700 is provided with a concave spherical surface structure.
[0024] In the embodiment, the reset spring assembly 8 comprises a spring guide rod 800, an adjusting nut 801, a reset spring 802 and a limiting piece 803, one end of the spring guide rod 800 is fixedly connected with the shoe 700, one end of the spring guide rod 800 penetrates through the body 1 and is provided with the adjusting nut 801 and the limiting piece 803, the reset spring 802 is arranged on the spring guide rod 800, one end of the reset spring 802 abuts against the limiting piece 803, and the other end abuts against the inner bottom wall of the spring hole of the body 1, the reset force can be adjusted by compressing the reset spring 802 through the adjusting nut 801, preferably, the reset spring 802 is a rectangular spring.
[0025] In the embodiment, there are eight sets of reset spring assemblies 8, and the eight sets of reset spring assemblies 8 are distributed on the outer four sides of the hydraulic chamber.
[0026] In this embodiment, a backlash equalization component 9 is also provided between the brake pad 700 and the body 1. The backlash equalization component 9 includes an adjusting screw 900, a tightening nut 901, and a guide pin 902. One end of the guide pin 902 is fixedly connected to the brake pad 700, and the other end of the guide pin 902 is connected to one end of the adjusting screw 900. The other end of the adjusting screw 900 passes through the body 1 and is provided with the tightening nut 901. By setting the backlash equalization component 9, the gap between the brake pad assembly 7 and the brake disc 10 can be adjusted so that the gap between the two sides of the brake disc 10 and the brake pad assembly 7 is equal.
[0027] In this embodiment, the inner wall of the hydraulic chamber is provided with a main sealing groove, a guide ring groove, a secondary sealing groove, and a dustproof ring groove from the inside out. The main sealing groove, guide ring groove, secondary sealing groove, and dustproof ring groove are respectively provided with a main seal 3, a guide ring 4, a secondary seal 5, and a dustproof ring 6. The main seal 3 is used to seal the high pressure of the external system (i.e., the working pressure when the braking device is engaged). The guide ring 4 is used to guide the piston in the cylinder to avoid hard contact between the piston and the inner wall of the cylinder, thereby preventing damage to the piston. The secondary seal 5 has a very good low-pressure sealing effect and can effectively seal the oil adhering to the piston during piston movement. The series seal formed by the main seal 3 and the secondary seal 5 can achieve a better sealing effect.
[0028] In this embodiment, the front end of the machine body 1 is provided with an oil inlet 102 that communicates with the hydraulic chamber.
[0029] In this embodiment, the machine body 1 is provided with lifting ears 100 on both sides, which facilitates the installation of the equipment.
[0030] like Fig. 2 During installation, the present invention is fixed to the mounting bracket 12 by mounting bolts 11. When braking is required, the pressure oil from the external system enters the hydraulic chamber through the oil inlet 102, pushing the piston 2. The piston 2 transmits the hydraulic pressure to the brake shoe assembly 7, causing the brake pads 702 to apply force to the brake disc 10, generating a set braking torque. At the same time, the brake shoe assembly 7 drives the spring guide rod 800 to further compress the return spring 802. When the pressure of the external system is released, the return spring overcomes the back pressure in the pipeline and the piston resistance, pulling the brake shoe assembly back, thereby realizing the opening of the brake.
[0031] When the pressure oil of the external system is released, the reset spring 802 pushes the spring guide rod 800 outward by pushing against the limiting sheet 803, drives the brake shoe assembly 7 to move, and makes it separate from the brake disc 10, so as to realize the opening of the brake and make the brake device be in the opening state. In the running process, when the brake disc 10 abuts against the brake sheet 702 due to the large axial movement, since the shoe block 700 is in spherical surface contact with the piston 2, the brake shoe assembly 7 will swing along with the swing of the brake disc 10, so as to avoid the abnormal wear caused by the non-parallel friction surface between the brake disc 10 and the brake pad 701. In the opening state of the safety brake device, there is enough opening gap, so as to ensure that the brake disc 10 of the balance reel does not abnormally rub against the brake sheet 702 in the running process, and when the brake disc moves, the brake shoe assembly 7 has a certain following amount along with the movement of the brake disc 10.
[0032] The above is only the preferred specific implementation of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited to this. Any skilled person in the art can make equivalent replacement or change according to the technical scheme and the inventive concept of the present application within the technical range disclosed by the present application, which should be covered in the protection scope of the present application.
