Description

Technical Field

The invention relates to the technical field of automatic adjusting devices, in particular to an automatic gap adjusting device for a multi-disc wet brake.

Background

The multi-piece wet brake is widely applied to special vehicles with severe working environment, large braking torque and strong anti-fading capability. The wet brake realizes braking by pushing a piston to press friction to generate braking torque. When the vehicle is used, the vehicle needs to be braked frequently, the friction pair is continuously abraded, the braking stroke is increased until the actually required braking stroke exceeds the set stroke of the system, the braking failure is caused, and the driving safety is seriously influenced. The clearance adjusting device can automatically eliminate the abrasion clearance and ensure that the braking stroke is not changed.

In the gap adjusting device for the wet brake at present, a bushing and a piston are mostly in interference fit. When the friction pair is worn, the piston can slide relative to the lining, so that a wear gap is eliminated; when the piston resets, the reset force is smaller than the friction force between the bushing and the piston, so that the brake stroke is unchanged. In order to ensure that the piston resetting force is smaller than the friction force between the bushing and the piston, the bushing and the piston need to ensure accurate interference, which puts higher requirements on part processing. After the fit size of the bushing and the piston is abraded, the interference magnitude between the bushing and the piston is reduced, the friction force is reduced, the constant braking stroke cannot be guaranteed, and the driving safety is influenced. Meanwhile, the clearance adjustment and the piston resetting are respectively realized by two sets of devices, the brake is complex in structure, and the space utilization rate is poor.

The clearance adjusting device of the invention uses the elastic bushing to replace the bushing, and ensures that stable friction force exists between the piston and the elastic bushing, thereby continuously and automatically compensating the abrasion clearance and realizing the invariable braking stroke. Meanwhile, the device integrates a reset function, reduces the number of parts and enables the structure of the brake to be more compact.

Alternatively, in this embodiment, the friction plate assembly 4 includes a dynamic friction plate 41 and a static friction plate 42, the dynamic friction plate 41 is sleeved and fixedly mounted on the spline housing 3, the static friction plate 42 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the brake housing 1 through the spline housing 3, and the dynamic friction plate 41 and the static friction plate 42 are arranged in a cross manner and can move left and right along the spline housing 3.

It is worth to say that, a hydraulic cylinder 9 is arranged inside the brake housing 1, one end of the hydraulic cylinder 9 is fixedly connected to the inner end wall of the brake housing 1, the other end of the hydraulic cylinder 9 is fixedly connected with the piston 8, and the piston 8 can move left and right by being pushed by the hydraulic cylinder 9. The hydraulic pressure in the hydraulic cylinder 9 acts on the piston 8 to cause the piston 8 to move axially, and the dynamic friction plate 41 and the static friction plate 42 are pressed to generate braking torque to realize braking. During repeated braking, the dynamic friction plate 41 and the static friction plate 42 are worn, so that the distance that the piston 8 needs to move during braking is increased, the piston 8 moves axially, and after an initial gap between the piston 8 and the friction plate assembly 4 is eliminated, the friction plate assembly 4 is pressed tightly to generate braking torque.

In addition, the number of the through holes 15 arranged on the inner surface of the piston 8 is at least four, the four through holes 15 are uniformly distributed at the bottom of the inner cavity of the piston 8, and the four through holes 15 are provided with guide pins 7, spacer bushes 6 and elastic bushes 5.

During repeated braking, the dynamic friction plate 41 and the static friction plate 42 are worn, so that the distance that the piston 8 needs to move during braking is increased, the piston 8 moves axially, and after an initial gap between the piston 8 and the friction plate assembly 4 is eliminated, the friction plate assembly 4 is pressed tightly to generate braking torque. After the brake is repeatedly braked, the friction plate assembly 4 is abraded, and after the piston 8 moves for setting a braking stroke, a gap is still formed between the piston 8 and the friction plate assembly 4, and the gap is an abrasion gap. To generate the braking torque, the piston 8 is moved further until the wear gap is eliminated and the friction lining arrangement 4 is pressed. When the actual braking stroke is larger than the set stroke, the piston 8 drives the elastic bushing 5 to push the retainer ring 10 to the end of the bushing 12, and the set stroke is eliminated. At this time, the thrust for pushing the piston 8 is larger than the friction force between the piston 8 and the elastic bush 5, the piston 8 slides relative to the elastic bush 5, the abrasion gap is eliminated, and the friction plate assembly 4 is pressed tightly to generate the braking torque. When the brake is released, the thrust pushing the piston 8 disappears, and the return spring 11 pushes the retainer ring 10 to drive the elastic bushing 5 and the piston 8 to return. After resetting, the piston 8 moves a distance relative to the initial position, the distance is equal to the wear clearance, and the braking stroke returns to the initial set stroke. Through repeated braking, under the action of the elastic bush 5, the retainer ring 10 and the return spring 11, the clearance generated by abrasion of the friction plate assembly 4 is automatically compensated, and the braking stroke is kept unchanged.
