Further, the brake ring 33 is formed in a substantially truncated cone structure, the slider 71 is provided between the brake ring 33 and the caliper body 10, and the slider 71 is movable up and down between a first position for locking the spindle 32 and a second position for unlocking the spindle 32 (the position of the slider 71 shown in fig. 2 is not the second position).

The third elastic member 72 is disposed between the brake ring 33 and the caliper body 10, the upper end of the third elastic member 72 is connected to the caliper body 10, the lower end is connected to the upper end of the slider 71, and the second electromagnet 73 is disposed at the lower end of the slider 71, for example, in the example of fig. 2, the second electromagnet 73 is disposed directly below the slider 71 to ensure the direction of the magnetic force applied to the slider 71, thereby ensuring the smoothness of the movement of the slider 71.

When the second electromagnet 73 is electrified, the sliding block 71 is moved downwards to the second position under the action of the magnetic force of the second electromagnet 73, so that the third elastic element 72 is in a stretching state, and the main shaft 32 of the motor 30 can rotate freely;

when the second electromagnet 73 is de-energized (i.e., performs the parking brake function), the magnetic force applied to the slider 71 disappears, and the peripheral side wall of the slider 71 respectively abuts against the side wall of the caliper body 10 and the side wall of the brake ring 33 under the potential energy of the third elastic member 72, so as to limit the rotation of the spindle 32 and achieve the parking brake function.

Preferably, as shown in fig. 2, a gap with a frustum-shaped cross section is formed between the brake ring 33 and the corresponding brake caliper body 10, and the slider 71 is substantially formed into a frustum-shaped structure and can be fitted with the frustum-shaped gap, so as to ensure the reliability of the fit between the slider 71 and the brake ring 33 and the brake caliper body 10.

In some alternative examples of the present invention, as shown in fig. 2, in order to increase the braking friction force and ensure the braking reliability, the outer peripheral wall of the brake ring 33 is provided with the third brake pad 23, the side of the caliper body 10 facing the outer peripheral wall of the brake ring 33 is provided with the fourth brake pad 24, and the outer peripheral wall of the slider 71 is provided with the fifth brake pad 25, so that when the slider 71 is in the first position, i.e. when the parking brake is implemented, the brake is implemented between the side wall of the slider 71 and the caliper body 10 and between the side wall of the slider 71 and the brake ring 33 respectively by using the brake pads, thereby ensuring the parking brake, reducing the wear of the parts and improving.

As shown in fig. 1 and 4, the transmission mechanism 50 is optionally a ball screw mechanism.

Specifically, the transmission mechanism 50 mainly comprises a screw rod 51, a screw nut 53 and a reverser 52, the screw rod 51 is connected with the rotating shaft 40, the screw nut 53 is sleeved on the screw rod 51, the lower end of the screw nut 53 is connected with the second brake pad 22, and the reverser 52 is connected with the screw nut 53 and sleeved on the screw rod 51.

Further, the lead screw nut 53, the return device 52 and the lead screw 51 together define a raceway, and a plurality of balls 54 are disposed in the raceway, so that when the lead screw is rotated by the rotating shaft 40, the balls 54 move along the raceway and make the lead screw nut 53 perform a linear feed motion, and the return device 52 disposed on the lead screw nut 53 can prevent the balls 54 from rolling out of the raceway. Under the action of the return device 52, the balls 54 can make a closed circulation motion in the raceway, so as to form a continuous rolling motion, so that the ball 54 can continuously work.

In some examples of the invention, as shown in fig. 11, where K1 is a normally closed type gang switch, K2 is a normally open type gang switch, J1 is a relay, and the motor 30, the switches K1, and K2 are controlled by a brake control center.

Under the normal operation condition, when braking is needed, the K2 is controlled by the brake control center to close the circuit. The second electromagnet 73 of the parking brake mechanism 70 is energized to perform the parking release function; meanwhile, the relay J1 works to switch on the circuit of the motor 30, so that the motor 30 starts to work and enters a service braking state.

When the parking brake is performed, the control unit K2 is turned off, the motor 30 is stopped, and the second electromagnet 73 of the parking brake mechanism 70 is de-energized to perform the parking operation.

When emergency braking is carried out, if the system power is lost, the electromagnetic clutch 63 of the emergency braking mechanism 60 is powered off to execute emergency braking action, meanwhile, the second electromagnet 73 of the parking braking mechanism 70 is powered off to execute parking action and lock the braking executing mechanism, the motor 30 does not rotate, and system components are kept safe; if the system is in failure, an emergency brake button can be pressed (or a brake control center sends out an emergency brake command), K1 is disconnected, the system is powered off, and the emergency brake state is directly entered.
