[0043] It should be noted that the features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other without conflict.

[0044] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The embodiment provides a vehicle 010, which comprises a vehicle body 100, a wheel 110 and a brake system (not shown in the figure) provided on the vehicle body 100, the brake system comprising a brake caliper 020 provided on the wheel 110; wherein the brake caliper 020 comprises a caliper 200 and a caliper cover 300, the caliper cover 300 is connected to the caliper 200, the caliper 200 is arranged on the wheel 110 and is used for braking.

[0045] It should be noted that the brake system also comprises a brake pedal, a master cylinder, a brake cylinder, a brake pad and the like structure, which is similar to the related art, and the structure will not be described in detail here.

[0046] It should be further noted that the braking principle of the caliper 200 is similar to the related art, and will not be described here.

[0047] The inventor found that the brake caliper provided by the related art is difficult to replace different caliper covers alone, and often needs to replace the entire brake caliper, which is difficult to replace and has poor user experience.

[0048] In order to improve the above problems; please refer to Figure 2 The brake caliper 020 of the embodiment further comprises a connecting mechanism 400, the connecting mechanism 400 is used for connecting the caliper cover 300 and the caliper 200, that is, the caliper cover 300 is connected to the caliper 200 through the connecting mechanism 400 and covers the outside of the caliper 200; wherein the connecting mechanism 400 is detachably connected with the caliper 200. In this way, the disassembly between the caliper 200 and the caliper cover 300 can be realized through the connecting mechanism 400, so as to facilitate users to replace different styles or different functions of the caliper cover 300 according to needs, to meet the needs of various users and improve user experience.

[0049] Further, the connecting mechanism 400 and the caliper cover 300 are also configured to be detachably connected. In this way, one connecting mechanism 400 can be matched with different caliper covers 300, that is, the same connecting mechanism 400 can be used to connect different caliper covers 300 to the caliper 200, so as to reduce the number of configurations of the connecting mechanism 400, which is beneficial to reduce the cost and further improve the user experience.

[0050] It should be understood that in other embodiments, the connecting mechanism 400 can be detachably connected only with the caliper 200. Alternatively, in other embodiments, the connecting mechanism 400 can be detachably connected only with the caliper cover 300.

[0051] It should be noted that the caliper cover 300 covers the outside of the caliper 200, which can mean that part of the caliper 200 is covered by the caliper cover 300, and the other part is not covered by the caliper cover 300.

[0052] Of course, in other embodiments, the caliper cover 300 covers the outside of the caliper 200, which can also mean that the entire caliper 200 is covered by the caliper cover 300.

[0053] In order to improve the stability of the detachable connection of the connecting mechanism 400 to the caliper 200, and to ensure the easy operability of the connecting mechanism 400 when disassembling and assembling the caliper 200, the connecting mechanism 400 in the present embodiment is detachably connected with the caliper 200.

[0054] Of course, in other embodiments, the detachable connection between the connecting mechanism 400 and the caliper 200 can also be detachable connection through bolts and other fasteners, which is not limited here.

[0055] The structure of the connecting mechanism 400 can be selected as needed; please refer to Figure 3 In the present embodiment, the connecting mechanism 400 includes a connecting piece 410 and a hook assembly 420 provided on the connecting piece 410, the connecting piece 410 is connected with the caliper cover 300, and the hook assembly 420 is detachably connected with the caliper 200. In this way, the stability and reliability of the detachable connection between the caliper 200 and the caliper cover 300 through the connecting mechanism 400, as well as the easy operability of disassembly and assembly, can be ensured.

In this way, the problem that the hook assembly 420 cannot be stably connected with the caliper 200 due to accidental collision can be improved.

[0057] Optionally, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3, the clamping jaw assembly 420 comprises a resilient member 430 and a clamping jaw 440, the clamping jaw 440 is detachably connected with the clamping jaw 200, the resilient member 430 is connected between the connecting member 410 and the clamping jaw 440, and the resilient member 430 is configured to make the clamping jaw 440 always have a tendency to be clamped with the clamping jaw 200. In this way, the stability of the clamping jaw 440 clamped with the clamping jaw 200 can be ensured under the action of the resilient member 430, and when the clamping jaw 440 is separated from the clamping jaw 200, the clamping jaw 440 subjected to external force can be used to press the resilient member 430, so that the resilient member 430 avoids the disassembly path (space) of the clamping jaw 440, thereby facilitating the separation of the clamping jaw 440 and the clamping jaw 200, and ensuring the easy operation of the disassembly of the clamping jaw cover 300 and the clamping jaw 200.

[0058] It should be understood that in other embodiments, the connecting member 410 can be connected to the clamping jaw 200, and the clamping jaw assembly 420 is configured to be detachably clamped with the clamping jaw cover 300; wherein the resilient member 430 of the clamping jaw assembly 420 is configured to make the clamping jaw 440 always have a tendency to be clamped with the clamping jaw cover 300.

[0059] Alternatively, in other embodiments, the clamping jaw assembly 420 can only comprise the clamping jaw 440, the clamping jaw 440 can be made of a material with elasticity, and is connected to the connecting member 410; in this way, the clamping jaw 440 can be stably clamped with the clamping jaw 200 or the clamping jaw cover 300 through the elastic action of the clamping jaw 440 itself.

[0060] Optionally, the clamping jaw 440 is rotatably connected to the connecting member 410. In this way, when the clamping jaw 200 and the clamping jaw cover 300 are disassembled, the clamping jaw 440 can be more flexibly rotated to make the clamping jaw 440 clamped with or separated from the clamping jaw 200, that is, the easy operation of the disassembly of the clamping jaw 200 and the clamping jaw cover 300 through the clamping jaw 440 of the connecting mechanism 400 is ensured.

[0061] Optionally, please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 , the clamping jaw assembly 420 further comprises a rotating shaft 450; the connecting member 410 comprises a connecting member body 4101 and a connecting lug 4105, the connecting lug 4105 is connected to the connecting member body 4101, the connecting member body 4101 is connected with the clamping jaw cover 300, and the connecting lug 4105 is provided with a first hole 4106; the clamping jaw 440 is provided with a second hole 4413, and the rotating shaft 450 is inserted into the first hole 4106 and the second hole 4413; wherein the rotating shaft 450 is in interference fit with the hole wall of the first hole 4106, and the rotating shaft 450 is in clearance fit with the hole wall of the second hole 4413. In this way, the clamping jaw 440 can be smoothly rotated around the rotating shaft 450, and the clamping jaw 440 can be reliably clamped with the clamping jaw 200 or can be smoothly separated from the clamping jaw 200.

[0062] Of course, in other embodiments, the shaft 450 is clearance fit with the hole wall of the first hole 4106 and interference fit with the hole wall of the second hole 4413. Alternatively, in other embodiments, the shaft 450 is clearance fit with the hole wall of both the first hole 4106 and the second hole 4413.

[0063] In order to facilitate the assembly of the elastic member 430 and improve the adverse effect of the elastic member 430 on the clamping cooperation between the clamping hook 440 and the clamp 200, please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 The clamping hook 440 of the embodiment includes a clamping hook body 441 and a support 442 connected to the clamping hook body 441, and the elastic member 430 is connected to the support 442. The clamping hook body 441 is provided with a second hole 4413 to be rotatably connected to the connecting lug 4105 through the shaft 450 and detachably clamped and cooperated with the clamp 200.

[0064] Optionally, please refer to Figure 4 The clamping hook body 441 has a clamping surface 4411 and a connecting surface 4412 distributed away from each other, the clamping surface 4411 is clamped and cooperated with the clamp 200, and the support 442 is connected to the connecting surface 4412. In this way, the elastic member 430 can be distributed on the side away from the clamping surface 4411, which is beneficial to improve the problem of the elastic member 430 interfering with the clamping of the clamping hook body 441 and the clamp 200.

[0065] Optionally, the clamping hook body 441 is substantially arc-shaped, and the connecting surface 4412 is a circular-arc convex surface. The support 442 is connected to the connecting surface 4412 which is a circular-arc convex surface and extends away from the clamping surface 4411. In this way, the distance between the force point of the elastic member 430 on the support 442 and the shaft 450 of the clamping hook body 441 can be larger, so that the clamping hook body 441 can be stably clamped and cooperated with the clamp 200 with a smaller force applied by the elastic member 430 to the support 442. That is, by increasing the length of the force arm, the effect of saving force is achieved, so that the clamping hook body 441 can be reliably clamped and cooperated with the clamp 200 even when the elastic member 430 provides a smaller elastic force.

[0066] Optionally, along the length extension direction of the clamping hook body 441, one end of the clamping hook body 441 is rotatably connected to the connecting lug 4105 through the shaft 450, the other end of the clamping hook body 441 is clamped and cooperated with the clamp 200, and the support 442 is closer to the one end of the clamping hook body 441 clamped and cooperated with the clamp 200. In this way, the elastic member 430 which applies an elastic force to the clamping hook body 441 through the support 442 can have a larger force arm, so that the clamping hook body 441 can be reliably clamped and cooperated with the clamp 200 even when the elastic member 430 provides a smaller elastic force.

[0067] Optionally, please refer toFigure 4 The side of the support 442, which is away from the elastic member 430, is provided with a force applying portion 443, which is a force applying surface. Pressure is applied to the force applying portion 443 to overcome the elastic force of the elastic member 430, so that the clamping body 441 can be separated from the caliper 200. In this way, the operability of disassembling the connecting mechanism 400 and the caliper 200 can be ensured.

[0068] Of course, in other embodiments, the force applying portion 443 can also be a force applying protrusion, a force applying groove, etc., which are not specifically limited here.

[0069] The support 442 can be a support plate, that is, the support 442 can be a plate-shaped structure.

[0070] Of course, in other embodiments, the support 442 can also be a support block, a support rod, etc., which are not specifically limited here.

[0072] Optionally, the elastic member 430 is a spring; please refer to Figure 5 The connecting member 410 further includes a limiting column 4102 connected to the connecting member body 4101; one end of the spring is connected to the support 442, and the other end is sleeved on the limiting column 4102. In this way, the direction of the force applied by the elastic member 430 on the support 442 can be guided by the limiting column 4102, so that the clamping body 441 can be reliably clamped on the caliper 200 under the elastic force of the elastic member 430, thereby ensuring the reliability of the detachable connection between the caliper cover 300 and the caliper 200 through the connecting mechanism 400.

[0073] In order to improve the stability of the elastic member 430 connected between the connecting member 410 and the clamping body 440, the two ends of the elastic member 430 are fixedly connected with the support 442 and the connecting member body 4101, respectively.
