Detailed description of the invention
In conjunction with Fig. 1, Fig. 2, the assistance type clutch pedal assembly 1 in the present embodiment includes pedal arm 2 and pedal support 6, and pedal arm 2 one end is provided with pedal tread 3, and the other end is connected by rotating assembly 4 with pedal support 6。From external structure, this assistance type clutch pedal assembly 1 there is no great difference with prior art。
Fig. 2 to Fig. 6 illustrates the internal structure of rotating assembly 4。Rotating assembly 4 includes guide pipe 11, turn 9, sleeve pipe 8 and needle roller the 12, first anti-attrition set the 7, second anti-attrition set 10。Guide pipe 11 is connected by the modes such as welding are fixing with pedal arm 2, and guide pipe 11 had both played the rotary steering effect of turn 9, also acted as the effect of the rotating shaft of pedal arm 2。Apparent from Fig. 6, turn 9 has the solid set (interference fit) circle body 9.1 on guide pipe 11, with the multiple pressure arms 9.2 starting first radially circumferentially to go out again from circle body 9.1, therefore pedal tread 3 is instantly stepped on when making pedal arm 2 rotate, guide pipe 11 rotates, and drives turn 9 to rotate。Between pressure arm 9.2 and circle body 9.1, there is gap so that pressure arm 9.2 can towards circle body 9.1 deformation thus providing elastic force。From Fig. 3, Fig. 5, turn 9 is multiple, along the axial close-packed arrays of guide pipe 11, namely makes δ=0 in Fig. 5。Apparent from Fig. 6, pressure arm 9.2 is provided with pressure arm depressed part 9.3, is used for holding needle roller 12。After turn 9 is enclosed within guide pipe 11, sleeve pipe 8 is enclosed within the outside of turn 9, and makes pressure arm 9.2 and sleeve pipe 8 matched in clearance, be inserted in the pressure arm depressed part 9.3 that needle roller 12 makes needle roller 12 between pressure arm 9.2 and sleeve pipe 8。Then as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 5, the first anti-attrition is overlapped 7 and is inserted into guide pipe 11 by the left side from Fig. 5, and 10 insertion guide pipes 11 are overlapped in the second anti-attrition by the right side from Fig. 5。One of effect of first anti-attrition set 7 and the second anti-attrition set 10 is so that guide pipe 11 and pedal arm 2 are enclosed within anti-attrition and put and freely rotatable can reduce friction, is prevent needle roller 12 in sleeve pipe 8 and turn 9 from deviating from the other hand。Finally, with bolt 4.1 through pedal support 6 and the first anti-attrition set 7, guide pipe 11, pedal arm 2 and the second anti-attrition set 10, fasten with nut。Sleeve pipe 8 is fixed on the first anti-attrition set 7 or is directly anchored on pedal support 6 so that sleeve pipe 8 does not rotate with pedal arm 2。Certainly, those skilled in the art should it is envisioned that, additionally it is possible to cancel anti-attrition set and make guide pipe 11 directly rotate on bolt 4.1, and stop the deviating from of inner body of sleeve pipe 8 with pedal support 6。Pin-and-hole 5 on pedal arm 2 is used for connecting Clutch main cylinder push rod, when pedal arm 2 moves downward, by pin-and-hole 5 place, pedal force is passed to clutch, thus realizing separation and the combination of clutch。
In conjunction with Fig. 6, Fig. 7, under original state, when namely not stepping on pedal tread 3 down, needle roller 12 is positioned at top 9.4 place of pressure arm depressed part 9.3, pressure arm 9.2 is pressed to circle body 9.1 thus providing tensile force, so under step on beginning time would not there is stepping on empty sense。Along with under step on pedal tread 3, pedal arm 2 rotates along direction as indicated by the arrows in fig. 5, guide pipe 11 is driven to rotate on the first anti-attrition set 7 and the second anti-attrition set 10, guide pipe 11 drives turn 9 to rotate again, simultaneously needle roller 12 rolls along the contour line of pressure arm depressed part 9.3 towards the bottom 9.5 of pressure arm depressed part 9.3 and makes the tensile force of turn 9 taper into, when arriving the lower limit position of pedal arm again, needle roller 12 is positioned at bottom 9.5 place of pressure arm depressed part 9.3, as shown in Figure 7。When needle roller 12 is positioned at 9.5 place, bottom of pressure arm depressed part 9.3, the tensile force of turn 9 is minimum, it is also possible to be zero, but now needle roller 12 keeps pressure arm 9.2 is pressed to circle body 9.1, thus remaining some tensile forces have advantage, this can make pedal arm 2 return as early as possible。During pedal arm 2 return, the work process contrast of rotating assembly 4, it is ensured that the timely return of pedal arm and return put in place。Visible, the employing of rotating assembly 4, make guide pipe 11 as the rotating shaft of pedal arm 2, by the pressure arm 9.2 of the turn 9 on guide pipe 11 and needle roller 12 under step on the starting stage resistance be provided, avoid and step on empty sense generation, and along with under step on the needle roller 12 rolling in pressure arm depressed part 9 and make the tensile force of turn 9 taper into, under step on resistance and diminish, under step on resistance and substantially do not produce the power-assisted effect of the boosting mechanisms such as existing boost pump to hinder, and pedal arm 2 return process contrast, turn 9 can order about the timely return of pedal arm 2。Being additionally, since the present invention is the improvement that the pivot structure between pedal arm 2 and pedal support 6 is carried out, and is integrated in by spring structure in pedal arm rotating assembly 4, no longer takies other space on pedal support 6, takes up room little。Further, the present invention changes the pressure arm 9.2 to turn 9 by the movement locus of needle roller 12 to apply to deform thus exporting stable resistance smoothly, so possessing higher reliability。And the compact arranged employing of the existence of multiple pressure arm 9.2 and circumferentially extending mode, multiple turn 9, when one or several pressure arms 9.2 or one or several turns 9 were lost efficacy, other pressure arm 9.2 or turn 9 remain able to work, and reliability improves further。
Although the present invention is described in conjunction with above example, but the present invention is not limited to above-described embodiment, and it being only limited by the restriction of claim, it easily can be modified and change by those of ordinary skill in the art, but and without departing from the essential idea of the present invention and scope。
