Abstract

A drum brake has a pair of brake shoes (40) moveable radially outwardly into contact with an associated brake drum to provide a handbrake function by a cross strut (100) which acts between the brake shoes or between pivoting brake operating levers (14) which actuate the brake shoes. A handbrake lever (18) is pivoted on one brake shoe or brake operating lever (14) and contacts one end of the strut to displace the other brake shoe or brake operating lever towards the drum to apply the associated shoe against the drum and by reaction through the strut to also force the other brake shoe or brake operating lever toward the drum to apply the other shoe against the drum. The strut (100) is in two parts (101,102), one part being connected for movement with each respective brake shoe or operating lever, the strut parts having inter-engageable formations in the form of teeth (103, 104) which when engaged allow the strut (100) to transmit axial force between the shoes or operating levers. Bias means (105,106) are provided for biasing the strut parts apart to disengage the inter-engageable formations to disable the strut, the inter-engageable formations (103, 104) being engaged when the handbrake lever (18) is operated to connect the strut parts (101,102) to allow the brake to be applied and being disengaged when the handbrake lever is released so that the strut parts can disengage and move apart with the brake shoes or brake operating levers to adjust the effective length of the strut as the brake shoes wear.

Break 10 has the backboard (not shown), and a pair of brake shoe 12 is supported on the backboard by abutment structure 13, is used for moving radially outwardly substantially and the contact of relevant brake drum (not shown).Each brake shoe moves radially outwardly through relevant operating handle 14 and contacts with brake drum, and the brake application device of hydraulic wheel cylinder 15 forms acts on the upper end 14a of operating handle 14.The lower end 14b of each operating handle pivots on relevant abutment structure 13 through pivot pin 16, and pivot pin 16 also is used for abutment structure 13 is fastened to backboard with other rivet pin 17.
Hand brake lever 18 pivots on right-hand side operating handle 14 by means of rivet 19.Hand brake lever has U-shaped bottom 18a, bottom 18a in a usual manner be positioned at parking brake actuation cable 21 ends on joint (nipple) 20 engage.Replacedly, can adopt being connected of any other form between the lower end 18a of parking brake actuation cable and hand brake lever 18.For example, the quick attached peripheral device shown in the patent application EP917630 is suitable.
Each abutment structure 13 forms the groove structure of U-shaped substantially, and a sidepiece 30 contacts with backboard, and the bottom of groove has hole 31, and the part 14c of each operating handle 14 extends through said hole 31.
Each brake shoe 12 comprises friction pad 40 and metal support/supporting element 41.Pad supports 41 has lug 43, and lug 43 sense of rotation according to brake drum when brake contacts abutment surface 45a or 45b on the abutment structure 13.The retarding torque that this contact opposing is produced. Abutment surface 45a and 45b are arranged on the adjacent part 45 of each abutment structure 13; And the bottom that extends through abutment structure enters into the side of the U-shaped structure adjacent with said bottom, so that good balance contact area is provided between brake shoe 12 and abutment structure 13.These adjacent parts 45 circumferentially connect through the part 46 of abutment structure, and it has formed the opposite side 32 of U-shaped groove structure.When brake, this link 46 between the adjacent part 45 supports adjacent part and has stoped its relative circumferential deflection, can resist the retarding torque that is produced better like this and firmer brake structural can be provided.
The pin 16 that bar 14 is pivotably mounted on the backboard is connected by support connecting piece 75, and support connecting piece 75 extends between the free end 16a of pin 16, helps 16 deflections with respect to backboard of control pin during with convenient brake.Support connecting piece 75 is bent to increase the gap around the relevant wheel wheel hub.In some device, have enough spaces and let link 75 adopt straight form.
Figure 10 schematically shows when brake, and the free end 16a of pin 16 is to the trend (being shown as dotted line) of deflection each other.Through providing support link 75, this trend is significantly reduced, and has therefore improved the rigidity of break greatly.If do not use support connecting piece 75 that the actuating displacement loss of (selling the result of 16 deflections) will take place owing to reduced, this has greatly improved the response of break.Mount pin 16 reduces also to help to reduce pin is installed in the possibility that lost efficacy on the backboard with respect to the deflection of backboard 11.The raising of break rigidity also makes the thickness of backboard can reduce (for example, from 2.5mm to 2.0mm), and this has significantly reduced the cost of material of break.
Fig. 7 has shown one the details of selling in 16.The free end 16a of said pin is riveted on support connecting piece 75 tops with on the first shoulder 16c that support connecting piece 75 is fixed on each pin.When break was assembled, each pin the other end of 16 was riveted on the backboard 11 at 16d place and is clipped in the sidepiece 30 with each abutment structure 13 between the backboard and the second shoulder 16e that each is sold.Bar 14 pivots on the part 16f of each pin, and this part 16f is between the 3rd shoulder 16g of space washer 51 and each pin
Fig. 8 and 9 has shown the alternative form of support connecting piece 75, and it passes through stamped, and comprises that form is the reinforced structure of the longitudinal extension of compression spine 76.
Figure 11 to 13 has shown that a kind of spring clip 80 that uses is fixed to the structure on the relevant brake rod 14 with brake shoe 12, and spring clip 80 riveted joints (through hole 80a) or employing alternate manner are fixed on the back of brake shoe 12.Folder 80 comprises two or more convexities 81, and these convexities 81 extend into and are arranged in the groove or groove 82 that basically along the circumferential direction extends on each bar 14 both sides.Four such convexities in the structure that is shown, have been used, but can be, on every side of bar 14 one only with two convexities.Alternately, can only use a convexity, its only with groove 14 1 sides on a groove engage.Like this; Said brake shoe just is maintained on the bar 14; But can when braking, in limited range, move (referring to the arrow C among Figure 11) in a circumferential direction relative to bar; With the optimum position of acquisition, thereby guarantee between brake shoe during the operating life of brake shoe and relevant brake drum, to have excellent contact with respect to bar.
In the structure shown in Figure 11 to 13, around said folder 80 also extends with the lug 43 that is clipped in said brake shoe at the 80b place, thereby between brake shoe and abutment surface 45a and 45b, provide Elastic Contact to reduce the vibration/noise of pad.
According to the present invention, have two-part pole 100 and between hand brake lever 18 and left-hand side operating handle 14, extend, as shown in Figure 1.Pole 100 has the first portion 101 and the second portion that contacts left-hand side operating handle 14 102 that contacts with hand brake lever 18.Be shown in Fig. 5 best, part 101 and 102 adjacently situated surfaces have the structure that engages one another that is respectively tooth array 103 and 104 forms.These teeth are biased into each other and are separated by being carried on sheet spring 105 and 106 on pole part 101 and 102 respectively usually.Pole part 101 pulls to right brake activation lever by spring 118, and is as shown in Figure 1, and pole part 102 pulls to left brake activation lever by spring 119.
Pole part 101 is loaded with tubular structure 107, and pole part 102 extends through tubular structure 107 with voussoir 109.Tubular structure 107 has inclination cam portion 110, and cam portion 110 cooperates with voussoir 109, impels tooth array 103 and 104 to engage each other when shown in Figure 4 and 5, being moved to the left (direction Z) at voussoir.When the tooth array engaged, two-part of pole cooperate made pole between hand brake lever 18 and left-hand side operating handle 14, to transmit axial force.
Voussoir 109 is moved to the left with respect to cam portion 110 by means of spring 111, so that the tooth array engages, spring 111 is connected to an end 112 of voussoir actuating rod 113, and voussoir actuating rod 113 pivots on right-hand side operating handle 14 by means of pivot pin 114.The other end 115 of bar 113 has jut 116; The otch 117 that jut 116 engages in hand brake lever 18 edges; Make when bar 18 by means of cable 21 with Fig. 4 in the direction of arrow X move and when pivoting with execution parking brake function; Bar 113 pivots with the counter clockwise direction shown in the arrow Y among Fig. 4, so that voussoir 109 moves and make tooth array 103 and 104 to engage in the Z direction, thereby makes pole 100 to give left-hand side control arm 14 from bar 18 transmission power.This causes left-hand side operating handle 14 to pivot around pivot 16, so that the relevant brake drum of force left-hand pad 12 (as shown in Figure 1) contact.The reaction force of the force left-hand pad 12 of contact hoof passes to right-hand lever 14 via pivot pin 19 through pole 100, thereby also makes right-hand side brake shoe 12 engage relevant drum, so that produce complete parking brake function.
Owing to be applied to the lever ratio on the bar 113, the use of voussoir actuating rod 113 can be changed the stroke of voussoir 109 and impose on the power of voussoir 109 from bar 18.Equally, the use of bar 113 also applies power with appropriate direction from bar 18 and gives voussoir 109, so that the tooth on the pole part engages.
When hand brake lever 18 is released; Voussoir 109 as shown in Figure 1 being moved to the left; Make tooth array 103 and 104 under the effect of sheet spring 105 and 106, be separated, and the pole part 101 and 102 that breaks away from follows bar 14 and move, they are connected with bar 14 with 119 via spring 118.Thereby when brake shoe 12 wearing and tearing, the position that pole part 101 is connected with 102 can automatically be regulated when bar 18 pivots, thereby makes the pole part engage to reduce stacked mode gradually.Thereby the whole life period that the required pole of engage brakes moves axially at brake shoe keeps roughly constant.
Figure 14 and 15 shows the of the present invention replaceable form that is applied to conventional drum brake; Drum brake has two brake shoes 212; Brake shoe 212 can engage with relevant bulging (not shown) by means of oil hydraulic cylinder 215 or hand brake lever 218; Hand brake lever 218 pivots on right-hand side brake shoe 212, and operates via having 300 pairs of brake shoes of two-part actuating pole.
Pole 300 has the first portion 301 and the second portion that contacts left-hand side brake shoe 212 302 that contacts with hand brake lever 218.Be shown in Figure 15 best, part 301 and 302 adjacently situated surfaces have the structure that engages one another that is respectively tooth array 303 and 304 forms.These teeth are biased into each other and are separated by being carried on sheet spring 305 and 306 on pole part 301 and 302 respectively usually.Pole part 301 is by the left brake shoe pulling of spring (not shown) court shown in figure 15, and pole part 302 is spurred towards right braking hoof by spring (also not shown).
Pole part 301 is loaded with tubular structure 307, and pole part 302 extends through tubular structure 307.Voussoir 109 also extends through tubular structure 307, and tubular structure 307 has inclination cam portion 310, and cam portion 310 cooperates with voussoir 309, to impel tooth array 303 and 304 to engage each other when moving right (direction Z) in that voussoir is shown in figure 15.When the tooth array engaged, two-part of pole cooperate made pole between hand brake lever 218 and left-hand side brake shoe 212, to transmit axial force, and the embodiment before this point combines in front is described.
Voussoir 309 moves right with respect to cam portion 310 by means of spring 311, so that the tooth array engages, spring 311 is connected to right-hand side brake shoe 212.Thereby when bar 218 pivoted, pole part 301 is moved to the left with tubular structure 307, and was shown in figure 15.Because voussoir remains fixed on the right-hand side brake shoe 212, the cam portion 310 of tubular structure 307 is handled voussoir 309 engages tooth 303 and 304, thereby makes pole 300 to give left-hand side brake shoe 212 from bar 218 transmission power.This causes bar left-hand side brake shoe to center on adjacent portion 350 pivots, to impel the relevant drum of left-hand side hoof 212 contacts.The reaction force of left-hand side hoof 212 contact drums passes to right-hand side hoof 212 via the pivot pin 219 of bar 218, produces complete parking brake function thereby so also impel right-hand side brake shoe 212 to engage relevant drum.
When break is released; The pole part 301 that is loaded with cam portion 310 is with respect to voussoir 309 shown in figure 15 moving right; Thereby make tooth array 303 and 304 under the effect of sheet spring 305 and 306, be separated; The pole part 301 and 302 that breaks away from is followed brake shoe 212 and is carried out rollback and move, and they are connected with brake shoe 212 via the spring (not shown).Thereby when 212 wearing and tearing of brake shoe pad, the position that pole part 301 is connected with 302 is automatically adjusted when bar 218 pivots, thereby makes the pole part engage with the overlapping configuration mode that reduces gradually.Thereby the life period that the required pole of engage brakes moves axially at whole pad keeps roughly constant.
Should be understood that, through cancellation bar 113 and voussoir 109 is connected to right-hand side operating handle 14 via spring 111, do not use the configuration shown in Figure 14 and 15 of voussoir actuating rod 113 also can be used in Fig. 1 in the break of 13 shown types.
Figure 16 shows the another form according to pole 400 of the present invention, and wherein the first pole part 401 keeps in touch by means of spring 118 and right-hand side brake activation lever 14, and the second pole part 402 keeps in touch by means of spring 119 and left-hand side brake activation lever 14.Tubular structure 407 with cam portion 410 receive pole parts 401 and 402 the two, the end of pole part 401 has voussoir part 409, voussoir part 409 cooperates with cam portion 410.Tubular structure 407 is connected with actuating rod 413 by means of spring 111, and 414 places of actuating rod 413 on hand brake lever 18 pivot.
Pole part 401 and 402 also has tooth array 403 and 404, and during in response to the mobile trombone slide shape structure 407 of hand brake lever 18, tooth array 403 becomes to contact with each other with 404 wedge joints in voussoir actuating rod 413 (on bar 18 414 places pivot).When bar 18 was released, tooth array 403 and 404 was separated by means of sheet spring 405 and 406 respectively.
Should be understood that be connected to right-hand lever 14 through cancellation bar 413 and with voussoir 409 via spring 111, actuating rod 413 just can not used pole 400.
Similarly, pole 400 is used in the conventional drum brake with the mode that is similar to the pole 300 shown in Figure 14 and 15, can be with bar 413, also can not be with bar 413.
Equally, through bar 113 is directly installed on the right-hand side brake shoe, Fig. 1 can be used for conventional drum brake with actuating rod 113 to the pole 102 and 103 of 13 shown types.
Figure 17 to 26 shows the another form according to pole 500 of the present invention, and wherein pole 500 has the first pole part 501, and the said first pole part 501 keeps in touch by means of spring 118 and right-hand side brake activation lever 14; With the second pole part 502, the said second pole part 502 keeps in touch by means of spring 119 and left-hand side brake activation lever 14. Pole part 501 and 502 also has tooth array 503 and 504, and when hand brake lever 18 was handled with engage brakes, tooth array 503 and 504 contacted with each other.
Pole part 501 is pivotably mounted on the pole part 502 by means of pin 505, and pin 505 is installed on the support 506, and support 506 is fastened on the pole part 501.Pin 505 extends to the groove 507 that is formed on the longitudinal extension in the pole part 502.Thereby; As described in hereinafter; Pole part 501 can be with respect to the small angle of pole part 502 pivots through being enough to tooth 503 and 504 is separated; And also can slide, thereby make pole part 501 can when hand brake lever 18 is released, follow relevant brake activation lever 14, and two poles partly can relative to each other be moved with the brake shoe that is adapted to be correlated with in the wearing and tearing that run through the break life period with 502 with respect to part 502.
Be shown in Figure 22 to 25 best, pole part 501 has inclination abutment surface 501a (referring to Figure 24), and inclination abutment surface 501a is on the edge 14e that is forced into right-hand side brake activation lever 14 under the effect of spring 118.This causes pole part 501 to pivot counterclockwise with respect to pole part 502 around pin 505; Shown in Figure 22 and 25, thus make tooth 503 and 504 not engage and two pole parts 501 and 502 can be when parking brake be released or the rollback of following brake activation lever when carrying out hydraulic braking move.Make that this pivot of the pole part 501 that tooth 503 and 504 is separated is that little negative moment arm V (being marked among Figure 22) by spring 118 causes.
When handling hand brake lever 18 brake, hand brake lever applies positive moment and gives parking brake part 501, causes part 501 to pivot counterclockwise with respect to pole part 502 around pin 505, makes tooth 503 and 504 engage, thereby allows pole 500 brake.This positive moment illustrates with W in Figure 23.
Figure 26 shows the replacedly form of the adjacent portion 501b that can be used on the pole part 501, under the effect of spring 118, to produce negative moment of rotation once more, so that tooth 503 and 504 is separated.
It is understandable that the benefit of the replaceable form of above-mentioned regulator pole 500 is exactly tooth on the pole part to be engaged do not rely on wedging action.
If hope, the additional bias device of secondary spring 118 can be set, be separated when hand brake lever is released, to make tooth 503 and 504 easily.This additional bias device can act directly between pole part 501 and 502 up to the left side of pivot pin 505, so that the disengaging of tooth more initiatively.
Figure 27 shows the variations of the pole shown in Figure 17 to 26, and its medium-height trestle 506 comprises additional lead arm 506a, and lead arm 506a helps to guarantee that tooth 503 and 504 keeps better aiming at during pole part 501 and 502 pivots.Arm 506a also comprises projection 506b, and projection 506b pivots away from each other to limit two pole parts 501 and 502 as block, and it is shown in figure 27, and Figure 27 shows tooth 503 and 504 and is separated.
