Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a tension adjustment device, specifically a tension adjustment device for tram brakes, and belongs to the field of tram brake technology. Background Technology

[0002] The braking system of an electric two-wheeler is a crucial component for ensuring driving safety, primarily consisting of the front and rear wheel brakes. Common brake types include mechanical drum brakes and hydraulic disc brakes. Drum brakes are simple in structure and low in cost, suitable for low- and medium-speed vehicles; disc brakes offer sensitive braking and good heat dissipation, suitable for high-speed or high-performance electric vehicles. The braking principle involves controlling the brake lever to cause the brake pads to rub against the brake drum or disc, generating resistance and slowing the vehicle down. A good braking system can effectively shorten braking distance and improve riding safety.

[0003] For electric two-wheelers with drum brakes, the rear wheel brake can be tightened by adjusting the adjusting nut on the brake cable. Specifically, tighten the adjusting nut clockwise to taut the brake cable, thus shortening the brake travel and enhancing braking performance. However, be careful not to overtighten, as this can cause brake lag. After adjustment, manually rotate the rear wheel to check for any friction noise, ensuring safety and effectiveness.

[0004] Existing methods for adjusting the rear wheel brake of electric two-wheeled vehicles mostly rely on manually rotating the adjusting nut, and the tension of the cable is difficult to control precisely. For inexperienced users, it is easy to make the adjustment incorrect or too tight, requiring multiple adjustments of the nut. Therefore, this paper proposes a tension adjustment device for electric vehicle brakes. Utility Model Content

[0011] This utility model provides a tension adjustment device for tram brakes, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0012] 1. The brake tension adjustment device of this tram can pull the connecting block and the limiting rod through the connecting column, so that the limiting rod is squeezed by the fixed ring against the elastic element until the limiting rod leaves the limiting hole. At this time, the second disc is rotated, so that the second disc drives the second positioning plate and the brake cable to move to the left, thereby pulling the brake cable. After the adjustment is completed, the connecting column is released, so that the limiting rod moves back into the limiting hole under the elastic force of the elastic element, realizing the limiting of the second disc. This device can realize the brake tension adjustment without disassembling the bolts, and the adjustment is quick and convenient. Attached Figure Description

[0022] Please see Figures 1-4 The present invention proposes the following implementation scheme: a trolley brake tension adjustment device, including a rocker arm component 1, the rocker arm component 1 including a mounting plate 101, two symmetrical fixing blocks 102 fixed on the mounting plate 101, and fastening bolts 103 installed on the fixing blocks 102.

[0023] The fastening bolt 103 is used to fix the mounting plate 101 to the brake camshaft. When the fastening bolt 103 is tightened, the mounting plate 101 will undergo slight deformation, thereby being tightly fixed to the brake camshaft. The mounting plate 101 is provided with a slot 104, which is used to assist in clamping the brake camshaft.

[0024] Please refer to this carefully. Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3It also includes a tensioning component 2, which is disposed at the bottom of the rocker arm component 1.

A first positioning plate 212 is fixed on the first disc 201 and is connected to the mounting plate 101. A second positioning plate 213 is fixed on the second disc 202 and is fixed to the second disc 202.

[0025] Please refer to this carefully. Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 A connecting component is provided between the first disk 201 and the second disk 202. The connecting component includes a limiting hole 203. The limiting holes 203 are evenly distributed on the first disk 201, and an installation cavity 204 is provided in the second disk 202.

[0026] A limiting rod 214 is slidably connected inside the mounting cavity 204. A fixing ring 205 is fixed on the limiting rod 214. The limiting rod 214 can slide within the limiting hole 203 and the fixing ring 205. An elastic element 206, which is a spring, is fixed on the fixing ring 205. The elastic element 206 is sleeved on the limiting rod 214. A connecting block 207 is fixed on the limiting rod 214.

[0027] Please refer to this carefully. Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 A connecting post 208 is fixed on the connecting block 207. An adjustment hole 209 is provided on the connecting post 208. An external thread is provided at the end of the connecting post 208 away from the connecting block 207. A protective sleeve 210 is threaded onto the connecting post 208. An adjustment groove 211 is provided on the protective sleeve 210. The protective sleeve 210 is provided to protect the connecting post 208 and the adjustment hole 209 to avoid misoperation.

[0028] Please refer to this carefully. Figure 1 and Figure 2 It also includes a brake cable connecting component 3, which is located at the bottom of the tensioning component 2.

[0029] Working principle: When adjusting the brake tightness, first remove the protective cover 210, then insert the screwdriver into the adjustment hole 209, and pull the connecting column 208 with both hands. The connecting column 208 will pull the connecting block 207 and the limiting rod 214, so that the limiting rod 214 squeezes the elastic element 206 through the fixing ring 205 until the limiting rod 214 leaves the limiting hole 203.

[0030] At this time, rotating the second disc 202 causes the second disc 202 to move the second positioning plate 213 and the brake wire 303 to the left, thereby pulling the brake wire 303. After the adjustment is completed, the connecting column 208 is released, so that the limiting rod 214 moves back into the limiting hole 203 under the elastic force of the elastic element 206, thereby limiting the second disc 202. This device can adjust the tightness of the brake without disassembling the bolts, and the adjustment is quick and convenient.
