[0033] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.
[0034] The brake pedal base is the structure in the brake assembly that mounts the brake pedal arm and pedal. The rigidity of the brake pedal base plays a key role in improving and preventing brake pedal NVH vibration problems. Currently, the brake pedal bases in passenger vehicles mainly adopt one-piece cast plastic and one-piece cast aluminum structures, which cannot simultaneously save assembly space and improve the overall structural strength of the brake assembly.
[0035] The following is for reference. Figures 1-6 A braking assembly according to an embodiment of the present invention is described.
[0036] The braking assembly 1 according to this utility model includes: a first support seat 11, a second support seat 12, and a reinforcing plate 13. The first support seat 11 and the second support seat 12 are spaced apart and respectively connected to the front of the vehicle body. The first support seat 11 and the second support seat 12 are at least partially opposite each other and define an installation area 102 for mounting a brake pedal 104. The first support seat 11 is provided with a first connecting portion 113, and the second support seat 12 is provided with a second connecting portion 123. The first connecting portion 113 is adapted to be fixedly connected to the second connecting portion 123. The reinforcing plate 13 is disposed on the first support seat 11 and / or the second support seat 12, and a reinforcing cavity 131 is formed between the reinforcing plate 13 and the first support seat 11 and / or the second support seat 12. At least one of the first support seat 11, the second support seat 12, and the reinforcing plate 13 is a sheet metal part.
[0037] According to this utility model, the brake assembly 1 is provided with a first support seat 11 and a second support seat 12. The first support seat 11 and the second support seat 12 are the basic support structures of the entire brake assembly 1. The first support seat 11 and the second support seat 12 are respectively connected to the front of the vehicle body, ensuring the stability of the entire brake assembly 1 in assembly with the vehicle body. The first support seat 11 and the second support seat 12 are spaced apart and at least partially opposite each other, defining an installation area 102 for mounting the brake pedal 104, providing a more stable support frame for the brake pedal 104. During assembly, the brake pedal 104 is mounted in the installation area 102. At this time, a part of the structure on the brake pedal 104, such as the pivot, can be located in the area where the first support seat 11 and the second support seat 12 are opposite each other and connected to the first support seat 11 and the second support seat 12 respectively, which can improve the stability of the brake pedal 104 assembly. Furthermore, the area between the first support seat 11 and the second support seat 12 is used for mounting the brake pedal 104, which improves the compactness of the overall structure of the brake assembly 1 and reduces the space occupied by the brake assembly 1.
[0038] The first support 11 and the second support 12 are respectively provided with a first connecting part 113 and a second connecting part 123. The first connecting part 113 and the second connecting part 123 can cooperate with each other and be fixedly connected, thereby realizing the connection between the first support 11 and the second support 12 and improving the stability of the entire braking assembly 1 structure. In addition, the braking assembly 1 is also provided with a reinforcing plate 13. The reinforcing plate 13 can be provided on the first support 11, or on the second support 12, or the first support 11 and the second support 12 can be provided with reinforcing plates 13 respectively. When the reinforcing plate 13 is provided on the first support 11 and / or the second support 12, the reinforcing plate 13 and the corresponding support can jointly define a reinforcing cavity 131. The provision of the reinforcing plate 13 and the formation of the reinforcing cavity 131 improve the structural strength of the entire braking assembly 1, so that the braking assembly 1 can effectively improve and prevent problems such as NVH vibration of the brake pedal 104.
[0039] During manufacturing, at least one of the first support seat 11, the second support seat 12, and the reinforcing plate 13 can be a sheet metal part. The rigidity of the one-piece cast plastic brake pedal 104 base is relatively low, requiring a strong front structure of the vehicle it is matched with. This usually requires adding a crossbeam running through the left and right sides of the front bulkhead, adding a reinforcing plate, or thickening the front bulkhead as a whole. This not only reduces the space in the engine compartment but also wastes costs. On the other hand, the rigidity of the one-piece cast aluminum brake pedal 104 base is relatively high, but the one-piece cast aluminum brake pedal 104 base is expensive and has a bulky structure, which can easily cause insufficient foot space for the driver and problems with the base being exposed. The braking assembly 1 of this utility model adopts a split structure with the first support seat 11 and the second support seat 12 working together. The structure is simple and compact, which can reduce the space occupied by the entire braking assembly 1. The first support seat 11 and the second support seat 12 are constructed of sheet metal parts, which have sufficient structural strength. The reinforcing plate 13 is set to further enhance the rigidity of the entire braking assembly 1, which can meet the current strict lightweight requirements of passenger vehicles. Moreover, sheet metal parts are relatively simple to manufacture, with low raw material and processing costs, which can save production costs to a certain extent. The entire braking assembly 1 takes into account the advantages of low cost, high strength, and small size, which can effectively improve and prevent problems such as NVH vibration of the brake pedal 104.
[0040] The braking assembly 1 according to this utility model is provided with a first support seat 11 and a second support seat 12, and the first support seat 11 and the second support seat 12 are spaced apart and respectively connected to the front of the vehicle body, which together define the mounting area 102 for mounting the brake pedal 104, providing a more stable support frame for the brake pedal 104, improving the compactness of the overall structure of the braking assembly 1, reducing the space occupied by the braking assembly 1, avoiding the large volume problem of the integrated structure in related technologies, not excessively squeezing the engine compartment space, providing more flexibility for the installation and layout of other vehicle components, and also providing more foot space for the driver, improving the utilization rate and comfort of the interior space. Meanwhile, the reinforcing plate 13 is disposed on the first support seat 11 and / or the second support seat 12, and forms a reinforcing cavity 131 with the first support seat 11 and / or the second support seat 12, which further enhances the rigidity of the overall structure. This can effectively reduce the excessive displacement of the brake pedal 104 caused by the vibration of the front cover and the base, thereby reducing the vibration amplitude of the pedal, preventing and solving the NVH vibration problem of the brake pedal 104, avoiding discomfort such as numbness in the driver's feet, and improving driving comfort and safety.
[0041] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the first support base 11 includes: a first connecting plate 111 and a first support plate 112, the first connecting plate 111 being connected to the front of the vehicle body, the first support plate 112 being disposed on the first connecting plate 111, and at least one of the first connecting plate 111 and the first support plate 112 being provided with a first connecting portion 113; the second support base 12 includes: a second connecting plate 121 and a second support plate 122, the second connecting plate 121 being connected to the front of the vehicle body, the second support plate 122 being disposed on the second connecting plate 121, and at least one of the second connecting plate 121 and the second support plate 122 being provided with a second connecting portion 123; wherein, the first support plate 112 and the second support plate 122 are at least partially facing each other and defining an installation area 102.
[0042] like Figures 1-2As shown, the first support base 11 includes a first connecting plate 111 and a first support plate 112. The first connecting plate 111 is fixed to the front bulkhead of the vehicle body, ensuring the stability of the first support base 11 during assembly with the vehicle body. The first support plate 112 is disposed on the first connecting plate 111 and can be orthogonal to the first connecting plate 111. That is, the first connecting plate 111 is fixed in the horizontal direction, while the first support plate 112 extends in the vertical direction, making reasonable use of the three-dimensional space of the assembly position of the brake assembly 1 and reducing the volume of the first support base 11 in the horizontal direction. The first connecting plate 111 is mainly responsible for connecting with the front bulkhead of the vehicle body, firmly fixing the entire brake assembly 1 to the vehicle body; the first support plate 112 focuses on providing direct support for the brake pedal 104. The first connecting part 113 can be designed according to actual needs, either on the first connecting plate 111 or the first support plate 112, or the first connecting plate 111 and the first support plate 112 can be provided simultaneously.
[0043] The second support base 12 includes a second connecting plate 121 and a second support plate 122. The second connecting plate 121 is fixed to the front bulkhead of the vehicle body, ensuring the stability of the second support base 12 during assembly with the vehicle body. The second support plate 122 is disposed on the second connecting plate 121 and can be orthogonal to the second connecting plate 121, that is, the second connecting plate 121 is fixed in the horizontal direction, while the second support plate 122 extends in the vertical direction, making reasonable use of the three-dimensional space of the brake assembly 1 assembly position and reducing the volume of the second support base 12 in the horizontal direction. The second connecting plate 121 is mainly responsible for connecting with the front bulkhead of the vehicle body, firmly fixing the entire brake assembly 1 to the vehicle body. The second support plate 122 cooperates with the first support plate 112 to define the mounting area 102, which can provide direct support for the brake pedal 104 and mounting space to accommodate at least part of the brake pedal 104. The second connecting part 123 can be designed according to actual needs, either on the second connecting plate 121 or the second support plate 122, or the second connecting plate 121 and the second support plate 122 can be provided simultaneously.
[0044] The first connecting plate 111 and the second connecting plate 121 are respectively connected to the front bulkhead of the vehicle body. The independent connecting plate design allows the braking assembly 1 to better adapt to different mounting positions on the front bulkhead of the vehicle body. For example, if the front bulkhead of the vehicle body has protrusions, grooves, or some avoidance structures at the mounting position of the first connecting plate 111 or the second connecting plate 121, only the corresponding connecting plate structure needs to be modified to achieve the mounting. Compared with an integrated support seat, the layout is more flexible. Moreover, when one of the support seats is damaged, only the corresponding support seat needs to be replaced and repaired, resulting in low maintenance costs.
[0045] According to one embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of first connecting portions 113 are spaced apart on the first connecting plate 111, and a plurality of second connecting portions 123 are spaced apart on the second connecting plate 121. An avoidance zone for an electronic braking integrated module is formed between two adjacent first connecting portions 113 and two corresponding adjacent second connecting portions 123.
[0046] Multiple first connecting portions 113 are spaced apart on the first connecting plate 111, and multiple second connecting portions 123 are spaced apart on the second connecting plate 121. The multiple connecting portions increase the connection area and connection strength between the first connecting plate 111 and the second connecting plate 121 and the front of the vehicle body. This allows the braking assembly 1 to better transmit force to the front of the vehicle body when subjected to external forces, preventing deformation or damage to the braking assembly 1 itself and providing more stable support for the brake pedal 104. Moreover, when the braking assembly 1 is firmly connected to the front of the vehicle body and the structure is stable, the energy transmitted to the vehicle interior from the vibration generated during braking is greatly reduced, thereby reducing the vibration and noise levels felt by the driver and passengers and improving driving comfort.
[0047] An avoidance zone is formed between two adjacent first connecting parts 113 and two corresponding adjacent second connecting parts 123, reserving installation space for the electronic brake integrated module. During assembly, the connecting rod of the electronic brake integrated module can pass through the avoidance zone and connect with the brake pedal 104. The setting of the avoidance zone avoids spatial interference between the brake assembly 1 and the electronic brake integrated module, enabling the electronic brake integrated module to be installed smoothly and accurately in the designated position, improving installation efficiency and assembly quality.
[0048] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the first connecting plate 111 and the second connecting plate 121 are respectively provided with a plurality of mounting holes 144 that cooperate with the side panel 101 of the vehicle body, and the reinforcing plate 13 is provided with a clearance hole 132 that is directly opposite to at least one of the mounting holes 144.
[0049] The first connecting plate 111 and the second connecting plate 121 are respectively provided with a plurality of mounting holes 144 that mate with the vehicle side panel 101. During assembly, the first connecting plate 111 and the second connecting plate 121 can be connected to the vehicle side panel 101 respectively using fasteners, thereby enhancing the connection strength between the braking assembly 1 and the vehicle side panel 101. During vehicle operation, the braking assembly 1 is subjected to forces from different directions, such as the impact force during braking, vibrations caused by road bumps, and lateral forces during vehicle cornering. The multiple mounting holes 144 allow the braking assembly 1 to be tightly connected to the vehicle side panel 101 through multiple fixing points, evenly distributing external forces to each connection point, effectively resisting the action of these external forces, reducing the swaying and displacement of the braking assembly 1, and thus ensuring the stability and reliability of the braking system. Multi-point connection can also reduce the stress load on a single connection point and reduce stress concentration at the connection. During long-term use, stress concentration can easily lead to fatigue cracks and loosening at the connection, affecting the reliability of the connection between the brake assembly 1 and the vehicle body. By setting up multi-point connection, the stress borne by each connection point can be reduced, which can extend the service life of the connection structure, reduce the risk of braking failure caused by connection failure, and improve the safety of vehicle driving.
[0050] The reinforcing plate 13 is provided with a clearance hole 132 that faces at least one mounting hole 144, which avoids interference between the reinforcing plate 13 and the fasteners assembled in the mounting hole 144. When installing the brake assembly 1, the installation tool needs to pass through the mounting hole 144 for tightening. If the reinforcing plate 13 does not have a clearance hole 132, the installation tool may collide with the reinforcing plate 13, making installation difficult or even impossible. The clearance hole 132 ensures that the installation tool can pass through smoothly, making the installation process of the brake assembly 1 more convenient and efficient, and improving production assembly efficiency.
[0051] According to one embodiment of the present invention, a reinforcing plate 13 is disposed at one end of a second support base 12, and at least a portion of the reinforcing plate 13 is spaced apart from the second connecting plate 121 to define a reinforcing cavity 131. A carpet overlap area 133 recessed toward the second connecting plate 121 is formed on the reinforcing plate 13.
[0052] A reinforcing plate 13 is disposed at one end of the second support 12, and the reinforcing plate 13 is at least partially spaced from the second connecting plate 121 to define a reinforcing cavity 131. This allows the reinforcing cavity 131 to act as a "buffer space" to effectively disperse and absorb stress acting on the second support 12 when it is under stress. When the brake pedal 104 is subjected to a pressing force, the force is transmitted to the second support 12. The reinforcing cavity 131 can alleviate stress concentration and prevent the second support 12 from deforming or being damaged due to excessive local stress. This greatly improves the overall structural strength and deformation resistance of the second support 12, providing a more stable and reliable support for the brake pedal 104.
[0053] The reinforcing plate 13 has a recessed carpet overlap area 133 facing the second connecting plate 121. The design of the carpet overlap area 133 fully considers its compatibility with the vehicle interior carpet. During vehicle assembly, the carpet needs to be laid flat on the vehicle floor and properly overlapped and secured with surrounding components. The carpet overlap area 133 provides a dedicated installation position 152 for the carpet, allowing it to be accurately embedded and achieve a tight, flat overlap. The carpet overlap area 133 is lower than the top of the reinforcing cavity 131, preventing the carpet from overlapping onto the top of the reinforcing cavity 131 and causing it to curl up. This not only improves the overall aesthetics of the vehicle interior but also effectively prevents the carpet from loosening or curling up during use, thus enhancing driving and riding comfort.
[0054] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, when the reinforcing plate 13 is disposed at one end of the second support base 12, that is, when the reinforcing plate 13 cooperates with the second connecting plate 121, the length of the first connecting plate 111 can be less than that of the second connecting plate 121, and a notch is formed at a position parallel to the reinforcing plate 13, so as to avoid the brake pedal 104.
[0055] In some embodiments, the reinforcing plate 13 may also be disposed on the first support base 11.
[0056] According to one embodiment of the present invention, at least one of the first connecting plate 111, the second connecting plate 121, the first support plate 112, and the second support plate 122 is provided with a reinforcing flange 141. The reinforcing flange 141 significantly increases the local bending section modulus of each plate. When the braking assembly 1 is subjected to external forces, such as the impact force during braking or the vibration during vehicle operation, these forces can cause the plates to bend and deform. The reinforcing flange 141 is equivalent to adding extra material thickness to the edge of the plate, changing the force transmission path, and making it more difficult for the plate to bend and deform under stress. For example, when the first connecting plate 111 connects the front of the vehicle body and related components of the brake pedal 104, it will bear a large amount of tensile and compressive forces. The reinforcing flange 141 can effectively resist the bending caused by these forces and ensure the structural stability of the first connecting plate 111. The plates are interconnected to form the overall structure of the braking assembly 1. The reinforcing flange 141 not only enhances the strength of the individual plates, but also improves the rigidity of the entire braking assembly 1 through the synergistic effect between the plates. During vehicle operation, the braking assembly 1 needs to maintain a stable shape and position to ensure the normal movement of the brake pedal 104 and the reliable operation of the braking system. The reinforced flange 141 makes the connection between the plates more secure, reduces structural deformation and loosening caused by external forces, thereby improving the overall rigidity of the braking assembly 1 and providing more stable support for the braking system.
[0057] In some embodiments, reinforcing flanges 141 may be provided on one or more of the first connecting plate 111, the second connecting plate 121, the first support plate 112, and the second support plate 122 as needed.
[0058] According to one embodiment of this utility model, the ends of the first support plate 112 and the second support plate 122 are respectively provided with extension plates 142 extending away from each other, and the extension plates 142 are provided with wiring holes 143. In the braking assembly 1 related system, there are numerous wiring harnesses, such as brake signal lines and sensor lines. The wiring holes 143 provided on the extension plates 142 provide dedicated fixing and guiding positions for these wiring harnesses. By passing the wiring harnesses through the wiring holes 143, the wiring harnesses can be laid out according to a pre-designed path, making the wiring harness routing more regular and orderly, avoiding the situation of the wiring harnesses being messily tangled around the braking assembly 1. This not only makes the internal structure of the entire braking system clearer, facilitating subsequent installation, debugging, and maintenance, but also reduces mutual interference between wiring harnesses, lowering the risk of failure caused by poor wiring harness contact or short circuits. The wiring holes 143 can effectively fix the passing wiring harnesses. During vehicle operation, the braking assembly 1 will generate various vibrations and swaying with the vehicle body. Without proper fixing, the wiring harnesses may loosen, wear, or even break under these vibrations. The wire harness hole 143 can tightly bind the wire harness to the extension plate 142, limit the range of movement of the wire harness, reduce wire harness damage caused by vibration, ensure that the wire harness always maintains a stable connection state, and ensure the accuracy and reliability of the signal transmission of the braking system.
[0059] In some embodiments, the extension plate 142 on the first support plate 112 and the extension plate 142 on the second support plate 122 extend away from each other, which can prevent the two extension plates 142 from encroaching on the mounting area 102, and thus prevent the extension plates 142 from interfering with the assembly of the brake pedal 104.
[0060] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the braking assembly 1 further includes: a bracket 15, which is attached to the second support plate 122 and extends in a direction away from the second connecting plate 121. The top of the bracket 15 is bent to form a support platform 151, and the support platform 151 is provided with a mounting position 152 for assembling a brake light switch.
[0061] The bracket 15 is attached to the second support plate 122. When the braking assembly 1 is subjected to external forces, such as the impact force during braking or vibrations during vehicle operation, the bracket 15 and the second support plate 122 can share these forces, reducing the risk of stress concentration and enhancing the structural stability of the entire braking assembly 1. The bearing platform 151 formed by the bending of the top of the bracket 15 has a dedicated mounting position 152 for assembling the brake light switch, providing a precise and stable mounting reference for the brake light switch. During vehicle production and assembly, installers can quickly and accurately install the brake light switch to the designated position based on this mounting position 152, avoiding problems such as poor linkage between the switch and the brake pedal 104 and signal transmission errors caused by inaccurate mounting position 152, thus improving assembly efficiency and quality.
[0062] Furthermore, the bracket 15 is attached to the second support plate 122 and extends in a direction away from the second connecting plate 121, cleverly utilizing the space around the brake assembly 1 and rationally planning the installation position 152 of the brake light switch: it will not occupy the space of key components inside the brake assembly 1, affecting the normal movement of the brake pedal 104 and other functions of the braking system; at the same time, it can place the brake light switch in a position that is convenient to operate in conjunction with the brake pedal 104, ensuring that the brake light switch can be triggered in a timely and accurate manner when the brake pedal 104 is pressed, illuminating the brake light and sending a braking signal to the vehicles behind.
[0063] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the braking assembly 1 further includes a support shaft 103 and a brake pedal 104. The support shaft 103 is disposed in the mounting area 102, and both ends of the support shaft 103 are respectively connected to the first support plate 112 and the second support plate 122. The brake pedal 104 is provided with a connecting arm 105, and one end of the connecting arm 105 is rotatably sleeved on the support shaft 103.
[0064] A support shaft 103 is disposed within the mounting area 102 and connected at both ends to a first support plate 112 and a second support plate 122, respectively, providing a stable rotation shaft for the brake pedal 104. The brake pedal 104 is rotatably mounted on the support shaft 103 via a connecting arm 105, allowing the brake pedal 104 to rotate smoothly and steadily around the support shaft 103. When the driver depresses or releases the brake pedal 104, the pedal can move precisely along a predetermined trajectory, avoiding problems such as jamming or deviation caused by unstable rotation, thus ensuring the accuracy and comfort of braking operation.
