Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of brake pad flipping technology, and in particular to a versatile quick-release adjustable brake pad flipping device. Background Technology

[0002] The descriptions in this section are provided only as background information relating to this disclosure and do not constitute prior art.

[0003] In brake pad production lines, the brake pad flipping process typically occurs after hot pressing and grinding, and before subsequent processing steps such as spraying, ablation, grooving, chamfering, and quality inspection. When brake pads are formed in a hot press, the friction material (working surface) is usually placed face down on the mold base plate for pressing. This facilitates air venting and ensures the flatness of the working surface and the stability of the mold structure. After pressing, when the brake pad is ejected or removed, the friction material (working surface) is still facing down, so it needs to be flipped before proceeding to post-processing. Existing general-purpose devices for brake pad flipping involve the product, after grinding, falling into a flipping device. The device rotates 180° and naturally slides onto the production line, thus achieving the flipping of the product.

[0004] Existing technology discloses a quality inspection auxiliary device for brake pad production, utility model patent with announcement number CN218370283U. It discloses a device including a frame, a crossbeam on the upper part of the frame, a transmission platform mounted on the upper part of the crossbeam, a first transmission motor mounted on one side of the transmission platform, the first transmission motor connected to a first transmission belt for outward transmission, the first transmission belt bypassing the transmission platform and having a discharge carrier plate on it, and a tilting motor mounted in the middle of the transmission platform. The tilting motor is connected to a rotating shaft on the vertical transmission platform via a tilting belt, and a tilting disc that rotates with the shaft is fitted onto the rotating shaft. The tilting disc has a loading notch. However, related technologies, including the above-mentioned technical solutions, still have many problems, such as: industry... There are many types of internal brake pads, each with different lengths and thicknesses. Existing integrated flipping devices cannot be adapted to the brake pad size for adjustment; they are only suitable for specific models. Other models may jam during the product's sliding process, causing equipment downtime and disrupting normal production. Manufacturing a separate flipping device for each brake pad model would be costly, and replacing the device would be time-consuming, reducing production efficiency. Furthermore, the flipped pads are prone to wear and deformation after prolonged use. Traditional integrated flipping devices cannot be disassembled and must be replaced entirely, increasing maintenance costs and hindering production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a versatile quick-release adjustable brake pad flipping device to solve the technical problems of narrow applicability, inconvenient replacement and adjustment, high equipment cost and low production efficiency that are common in existing brake pad flipping devices.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0007] A versatile, quick-release, adjustable brake pad flipping device includes:

[0008] A rotating shaft, used for synchronous rotation with the power unit;

[0009] The chuck is mounted on the pivot and fixedly installed relative to the pivot.

[0010] The flip plate is arranged on the outer diameter of the rotating shaft in the radial direction, and its two ends are slidably installed along the circumference of the chuck. The two ends of the flip plate are fixedly installed relative to the chuck by locking parts.

[0011] Furthermore, the flip plate includes a sheet-like body and locking blocks respectively installed on both sides of the body, the locking blocks being slidably installed along a groove provided circumferentially in the chuck.

[0012] Furthermore, the chuck is configured as two, and each of the two chucks mounted on the rotating shaft has an inner ring platform and an outer ring platform on its opposite side. The groove between the inner ring platform and the outer ring platform is a sliding groove, and the outer ring platform has a clearance groove that is connected to the sliding groove. The sliding groove has a hollow hole that runs through the axis. The chuck block has a mounting hole, and the locking part passes through the mounting hole and the hollow hole of the chuck and is locked and installed opposite to the chuck.

[0013] Furthermore, the main body is provided with carding platforms on both sides. The vertical surface of the carding platform is slidably installed in contact with the inner side of the outer ring platform of the chuck, and the horizontal surface of the carding platform is slidably installed in contact with the outer peripheral surface of the outer ring platform of the chuck.

[0014] Furthermore, the rotating shaft includes a central shaft and two end shafts on both sides. The diameter of the central shaft is larger than the diameter of the end shafts. The bottom edge of the flip plate is mounted on the central shaft. The two chucks are respectively fitted on the end shafts and pressed against the central shaft.

[0015] Furthermore, the length of the central shaft is m, the maximum axial spacing between the bottom of the clearance slots of the two chucks is l, the shortest distance between the outer circumferential surface of the central shaft and the outer circumferential surface of the chuck is h, the minimum spacing between the two chuck platforms on both sides of the body is M, the maximum spacing between the chuck blocks on both sides of the flip plate is L, and the distance from the horizontal plane of the two chuck platforms on both sides of the flip plate to the bottom edge of the body is H, where: H>h, M<m, m<L<l.

[0016] Furthermore, the outer circumferential surface of the chuck is provided with a scale.

[0017] Furthermore, the surface of the flip sheet is coated with an aluminum foil or has been sandblasted.

[0018] Furthermore, the locking part uses a screw, the mounting hole of the locking block is a threaded hole, the nut of the locking part is located outside the chuck and its screw passes through the hollow hole of the chuck and is threadedly installed with the mounting hole of the locking block.

[0019] Furthermore, the main body is provided with four horizontal adjustment holes, and a limiting plate is installed in each pair of vertical adjustment holes. The distance between the two limiting plates is adjusted by their positions within the adjustment holes.

[0020] Furthermore, the adjustment hole is configured as an elongated hole, and the limiting plate is slidably installed in the adjustment hole by screws.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0022] (1). By setting a flipping plate that can slide on the chuck, this utility model achieves the purpose of adjusting the clamping angle and clamping distance between two adjacent flipping plates according to the thickness of the brake pad, thus making it suitable for brake pads of different thicknesses. By setting an adjustment hole on the main body combined with a limiting plate, it achieves the purpose of adjusting the distance between the two limiting plates according to the length of the brake pad, thus making it suitable for brake pads of different lengths. This makes the flipping device suitable for flipping operations of different types of brake pads, which not only saves production costs, but also avoids the phenomenon of jamming and stopping due to the flipping device not being suitable for brake pads, thus ensuring the improvement of production efficiency.

[0023] (2). By using a flip piece that slides along the card, the position of the flip piece can be adjusted independently at different positions. This avoids the wear and tear of the flip piece that is prone to occur after long-term use of the traditional one-piece flip structure. The worn flip piece can be replaced in a targeted manner, making maintenance convenient, quick and easy, saving time and effort, and minimizing maintenance costs. Attached Figure Description

[0039] To address the limitations of existing technologies, this embodiment provides a technical solution. The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0040] This utility model primarily addresses the shortcomings of existing brake pad flipping devices, which are generally only applicable to specific brake pad models and cannot handle the flipping action of different types of brake pads. Increasing the variety of flipping devices would increase equipment costs and narrow the applicability. Furthermore, traditional integrated flipping devices commonly require complete replacement of the entire device once partial wear occurs, resulting in high maintenance costs and reduced work efficiency. To address the problems of existing flipping devices, this application discloses a versatile, quick-release, adjustable brake pad flipping device, the specific technical solution of which is as follows:

[0041] See appendix Figure 1-3 and appendix Figure 6-8 The flipping device includes a rotating shaft 100, which is used to rotate synchronously with the power unit. It can be understood that the principle of the flipping device is that the rotating shaft 100 is driven to rotate synchronously by an external power unit. The power unit can be a rotary motor, a rotary cylinder, or other rotary power components. The rotating shaft 100 includes a central shaft 101 and two end shafts 102 on both sides. The diameter of the central shaft 101 is larger than the diameter of the end shafts 102. It can be understood that the central shaft 101 is located in the middle, and the end shafts 102 are located at both ends of the central shaft 101.

[0042] See appendix Figure 1 , Figure 3 and appendix Figure 6-8The flipping device includes a chuck 200, which is fitted onto and fixedly installed relative to the rotating shaft 100. The chuck 200 is disc-shaped. Specifically, two chucks 200 are provided, and each of the two chucks 200 mounted on the rotating shaft 100 has an inner ring platform 204 and an outer ring platform 205 on its opposite side. The groove between the inner ring platform 204 and the outer ring platform 205 is a sliding groove 202, which is an annular groove. The outer ring platform 205 has a clearance groove 201, which communicates with the sliding groove 202. The purpose of the clearance groove 201 is to facilitate the installation of the locking blocks 303 at both ends of the flipping piece 300. The sliding groove 202 has an axially penetrating perforated hole 203. The outer circumferential surface of the chuck 200 is marked with graduations. The purpose of these graduations is to facilitate precise adjustment and positioning of the flipping piece 300.

[0043] See appendix Figure 4 and attached Figure 5The flipping device includes several flipping pieces 300, which are arranged radially on the outer diameter of the rotating shaft 100, and their two ends are slidably mounted along the circumference of the chuck 200. The bottom edge of the flipping piece 300 is mounted in contact with the central shaft 101, and two chucks 200 are respectively fitted onto the end shaft 102 and pressed against the central shaft 101. It can be understood that there are several flipping pieces 300 arranged in a circumferential array along the rotating shaft 100, and the spacing between adjacent flipping pieces 300 can be adjusted according to actual needs. Specifically, the two ends of the flipping piece 300 are fixedly mounted to the chuck 200 by locking parts. The flipping piece 300 includes a sheet-like body 301 and locking blocks 303 respectively mounted on both sides of the body 301. The locking blocks 303 are slidably mounted along the circumferential groove 202 of the chuck 200. The main body 301 is further provided with mounting platforms 304 on both sides. The vertical surface of the mounting platform 304 is slidably contacted with the inner side surface of the outer ring platform 205 of the chuck 200, and the horizontal surface of the mounting platform 304 is slidably contacted with the outer peripheral surface of the outer ring platform 205 of the chuck 200. It can be understood that the mounting platform 304 is formed by an inward indentation at one end of the main body 301 near the bottom edge. The mounting platform 304 includes a horizontal surface and a vertical surface. The inner side surface of the outer ring platform 205 of the chuck 200 is the inner end face of the two chucks 200 facing each other. The outer peripheral surface of the outer ring platform 205 of the chuck 200 is the outer circumferential surface. The surface of the main body 301 of the flip plate 300 is provided with an aluminum foil coating or a sandblasted coating. The purpose of the coating is to increase the surface roughness of the main body 301 of the flip plate 300 to prevent it from being too smooth and causing the brake pad to slip off at too high a speed, resulting in rebound or impact damage to the next production line. The locking block 303 has a mounting hole 3031. The locking part passes through the mounting hole 3031 and the hollow hole 203 of the chuck 200 and is locked to the chuck 200. Specifically, the locking part is a screw, the mounting hole 3031 of the locking block 303 is a threaded hole, the nut of the locking part is located outside the chuck 200 and its screw passes through the hollow hole 203 of the chuck 200 and is threaded to the mounting hole 3031 of the locking block 303. Other locking methods can also be used here, such as using a screw as the locking part, the bolt passing through the hollow hole 203 of the chuck 200 and the mounting hole 3031 of the locking block 303 and being tightened by a nut, and an elastic washer can be installed between the screw and the chuck 200 to prevent loosening.

[0044] See appendix Figure 5 and 7The central shaft 101 has a length of m, the maximum axial spacing between the bottoms of the clearance grooves 201 of the two chucks 200 is l, the shortest distance between the outer circumferential surface of the central shaft 101 and the outer circumferential surface of the chucks 200 is h, the minimum spacing between the two side mounting platforms 304 of the body 301 is M, the maximum spacing between the two side mounting blocks 303 of the flip piece 300 is L, and the distance from the horizontal plane of the two side mounting platforms 304 of the flip piece 300 to the bottom edge of the body 301 is H, where: H > h, M < m, m < L < l. The purpose of limiting the dimensions of each component here is to facilitate installation and to ensure proper positioning after sliding adjustment of the flip piece 300.

[0045] See appendix Figure 4 The main body 301 is provided with four horizontal adjustment holes 302. A limiting plate is installed in each pair of vertical adjustment holes 302. The distance between the two limiting plates is adjusted by their positions within the adjustment holes 302. Specifically, the adjustment holes 302 are elongated holes, and the limiting plates are slidably installed within them by screws. It can be understood that a pad with a through hole is provided at the bottom of the limiting plate. The limiting plate is secured by screws passing through the through hole and the adjustment hole 302, and then fastened with a nut to achieve the positioning of the limiting plate.

[0046] In actual production, the flipping device of this utility model is first welded and fixed to the two chucks 200 and the rotating shaft 100. The clearance grooves 201 of the two chucks 200 are located on the same horizontal line. The two ends of the flipping piece 300 are welded and fixed with the locking blocks 303. The locking blocks 303 are provided with two mounting holes 3031, which are located on both sides of the flipping piece 300. The locking blocks 303 of the flipping piece 300 are aligned with the clearance grooves 201 of the chucks 200, inserted into the slide grooves 202, and slid along the slide grooves 202. All the flipping pieces 300 are installed on the chucks 200 in sequence. The spacing between the flipping pieces 300 and the spacing on the limit plate are adjusted according to the thickness and length of the brake pads to perform the flipping operation. When changing different models of brake pads, the position of the flipping piece 300 can be adjusted by simply loosening the locking part and adjusting the position of the locking blocks 303. When some of the rotating plates 300 wear out, only the worn rotating plates 300 need to be replaced, which saves time and effort, reduces equipment and maintenance costs, and improves production efficiency.
