Basket for storing materials for nitriding brake disc

Abstract

This utility model discloses a special basket for holding materials used in the nitriding treatment of brake discs. It includes a rectangular basket body, within which multiple brake discs are arranged horizontally and vertically. Guide tubes are fixed horizontally on both the front and back sides of the basket body. Multiple compression springs and sliders are slidably installed within the guide tubes, with the sliders positioned between adjacent compression springs. Opening slots are provided horizontally on the opposite surfaces of the two guide tubes. Positioning blocks are fixed to the sliders, passing through the opening slots and movably engaging with both sides of the brake discs. By setting horizontally movable sliders and positioning blocks, the sliders, supported by the compression springs, keep the positioning blocks relatively fixed. Therefore, when placing the brake discs, they are held by the positioning blocks from both sides, making the brake discs more stable and less prone to bumps and shaking, thus avoiding scratches. When removing or placing the brake discs, the positioning blocks can be squeezed horizontally to increase their spacing, facilitating the operation.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of brake disc manufacturing technology, specifically to a special basket for holding materials used in the nitriding treatment of brake discs. Background Technology

[0002] During use, automotive brake discs can experience vibrations and reduced smoothness during braking due to uneven material composition, poor manufacturing precision, thermal deformation, and rust. This noise is particularly noticeable in electric vehicles, which lack engine and transmission noise sources. Exposed to the air, brake discs are easily exposed to water during driving and car washes. Brake discs without rust-proofing are prone to corrosion. Braking heats the disc, causing thermal changes in the rust layer. Iron oxide reacts to form magnetite (Fe3O4), which adheres to the brake disc and is difficult to remove, resulting in uneven disc thickness and contributing to braking vibrations and noise.

[0003] Therefore, in the production process of brake discs, in addition to ensuring material uniformity and improving processing precision, it is also necessary to prevent rusting during use. After nitriding and carburizing treatment, a compound layer can be formed on the surface of the brake disc. This compound layer has a layered, close-packed hexagonal structure similar to graphite, exhibiting excellent wear resistance. Furthermore, due to the stable high pitting potential of the compound layer, it also has good corrosion resistance, thereby improving the rusting problem of the brake disc.

[0004] During carbonitriding treatment, brake discs require placement in baskets for easy handling and storage. Existing baskets are all fixed structures with fixing protrusions on the front and back to position the brake discs. The spacing between these protrusions varies. With small protrusion spacing, the placement and removal of the brake disc are restricted, easily causing scratches. With large protrusion spacing, the brake disc is poorly secured, resulting in instability and wobbling during transport, causing impacts and scratches. Therefore, to improve the protection of the brake discs, a specialized basket has been designed. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a special basket for holding materials used in the nitriding treatment of brake discs, which solves the problems of inconvenience in placing and removing brake discs and the ease with which they are scratched when placed in existing fixed-structure baskets.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution: A special basket for holding materials for nitriding of brake discs includes a rectangular basket body. Multiple brake discs are arranged horizontally and vertically inside the basket body. Guide tubes are fixed horizontally on both the front and back sides of the basket body. Multiple compression springs and sliders are slidably installed inside the guide tubes, with the sliders located between two adjacent compression springs. Opening slots are provided horizontally on the opposite surfaces of two guide tubes. Positioning blocks are fixed on the sliders. The positioning blocks pass through the opening slots and are movably engaged with both sides of the brake discs.

[0007] Preferably, the height of the guide tube corresponds to the height of the center of the brake disc.

[0008] Preferably, the slider is a cylindrical component with a smooth surface.

[0009] Preferably, the side of the positioning block that contacts the brake disc is a smooth curved surface.

[0010] Preferably, stacking positioning holes are also provided at the four corners of the top of the basket body.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: This invention features a horizontally movable slider and positioning blocks. The slider, supported by a compression spring, keeps the positioning blocks relatively fixed. Therefore, when placing the brake disc, it is held by the positioning blocks from both sides, making the brake disc more stable and less prone to bumps and shaking, thus avoiding scratches. When picking up or putting down the brake disc, the positioning blocks can be squeezed laterally to increase the distance between them, making the operation easier. This solves the problems of inconvenience in picking up and putting down brake discs and the tendency to get scratched in existing fixed-structure baskets. Attached Figure Description

[0014] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0015] like Figure 1-4 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a special basket for holding materials for brake disc nitriding treatment, including a rectangular basket body 1, and stacking positioning holes 8 are provided at the four corners of the top of the basket body 1. Multiple brake discs 2 inside the basket body 1 are arranged in a horizontal order, and the brake discs 2 are arranged vertically. The front and back sides of the basket body 1 are both fixed with guide tubes 3 in the horizontal direction. The height of the guide tubes 3 corresponds to the height of the center of the brake disc 2. Multiple compression springs 4 and sliders 5 are slidably installed inside the guide tubes 3. The sliders 5 are smooth cylindrical components and are located between two adjacent compression springs 4. Two guide tubes 3 have opening slots 6 on their opposite sides along the transverse direction. A positioning block 7 is fixed on the slider 5. The positioning block 7 passes through the opening slot 6 and is movably engaged on both sides of the brake disc 2. The side of the positioning block 7 that contacts the brake disc 2 is a smooth curved surface.

[0016] Working principle: When taking out or placing the brake disc 2, it is taken out one by one from one side to the other inside the basket body 1. By laterally squeezing the positioning block 7, the compression spring 4 is contracted, and the gap between two adjacent positioning blocks 7 increases, which makes it easier to take out or place the brake disc 2. After the positioning block 7 is released, it is supported by the compression spring 4, so that the positioning block 7 is clamped on both sides of the brake disc 2. Under the support of the compression spring 4, the slider 5 makes the position of the positioning block 7 relatively fixed, avoiding the brake disc 2 from swinging and bumping, making the brake disc 2 more stable and less prone to scratches.
