They are only used for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model. In addition, the terms "first," "second," etc., are only used to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0026] In the description of this utility model, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "set," "install," "connect," and "link" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.
[0027] refer to Figure 1-5 As shown, one embodiment of this utility model is as follows:
[0028] A fixed caliper for motorcycles includes a brake cylinder housing 1. A left piston chamber 2 and a right piston chamber 3 are disposed opposite to each other in the brake cylinder housing 1. A brake piston 4 is installed in both the left piston chamber 2 and the right piston chamber 3. A brake shoe 5 is provided at the end of the brake piston 4. A mounting groove is provided in the middle of both the left piston chamber 2 and the right piston chamber 3. A return ring 6 adapted to the brake piston is provided in the mounting groove. A shoe spring 7 is provided on the brake cylinder housing 1 between the two brake shoes 5.
[0029] When the driver gives the brake command, the brake fluid pushes the brake pistons from the rear of the left and right piston chambers toward the center, which in turn pushes the brake pads toward the center to clamp the brake disc, thus achieving smooth braking of the motorcycle; when the driver releases the brake command, the brake pistons at both ends return to their original positions by their respective return rings, and the brake pads no longer contact the brake disc.
[0030] By eliminating the use of plugs and sealing rings, the assembly process is simplified while reducing the number of parts used. In the manufacturing of the brake caliper housing, an angle milling head is used to create the caliper body, ensuring consistent depth of the left and right piston chambers, resulting in a more compact structure, synchronizing the left and right brake pistons, and improving braking performance.
[0031] In this embodiment, both the left piston chamber 2 and the right piston chamber 3 are provided with piston dust seals 8. The piston dust seals ensure the piston's dust prevention effect, and together with the return ring, they can effectively prevent brake fluid leakage.
[0032] In this embodiment, both ends of the brake shoe 5 are provided with positioning ears 10, and the brake caliper housing 1 is provided with positioning grooves 11 that fit the positioning ears 10. The smooth movement of the brake shoe is achieved through the cooperation of the positioning ears 10 and the positioning grooves 11. Furthermore, to improve the braking effect, multiple brake pistons can be provided according to actual usage requirements. (Reference) Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, there are two left piston chambers and two right piston chambers, and two brake pistons are installed accordingly.
[0033] In this embodiment, the pump housing 1 is provided with a mounting hole 12, which is used to connect to the brake bracket of the motorcycle.
[0034] In this embodiment, the pump housing 1 is provided with an oil passage 13 that connects the left piston chamber 2 and the right piston chamber 3. The oil passage 13 is provided with an oil inlet 14 and a vent 15 adapted to the oil passage.
[0035] The oil passage 13 is used to synchronize the brake pistons on the left and right sides to achieve smooth braking. In the braking state, the return ring undergoes elastic deformation. After the brake is withdrawn, the return ring returns to its initial state, driving the brake piston to return to its original position and release the brake.
[0036] A vent nozzle 16 is installed on the vent hole 15, and a vent nozzle dust cover 17 is installed on the vent nozzle 16.
[0037] An oil inlet plug 18 is installed on the oil inlet hole 14. During installation and use, the oil inlet plug is removed and connected to the motorcycle brake hose.
[0038] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
