Abstract

Braking fluid is delivered directly through the steering linkage into the brake caliper and pressurises the piston of the brake unit. Braking fluid may also be directed through the steering linkage by means of a brake line which is connected to the ball joint(2) and sealed.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Lenkgestänge mit integrierter Bremsleitung, wodurch die herkömmlichen Bremsschläuche bei hydraulischen Bremsanlagen entfallen. Derartige Lenkgestänge können in nahezu allen Fahrzeugen, welche vorne eine Scheibenbremsanlage besitzen, eingebaut werden.The invention relates to a steering linkage Integrated brake line, which makes the conventional brake hoses hydraulic braking systems are eliminated. Such steering linkage can in almost all Vehicles that have a front Have disc brake system installed will.

Um einen Bremskolben zu betätigen, werden separate Schläuche benötigt, welche den äußeren Umwelteinflüssen ausgesetzt sind, und somit stark verschleißen. Auch die Montagezeit der Bremsleitungen und Schläuche kann durch die Integration der Bremsleitungen in das Lenkgestänge verkürzt werden, wodurch geringere Kosten entstehen und weniger Material verbraucht wird.To operate a brake piston separate hoses needed, which the are exposed to external environmental influences, and thus wear heavily. Also the assembly time of the brake lines and hoses can the integration of the brake lines in the Steering linkage can be shortened, which lower costs and less Material is consumed.

Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein kombiniertes Brems-Lenksystem zu entwickeln, das ein stabileres und schneller zu montierendes betrifft.The invention is therefore the object based on a combined brake-steering system to develop a more stable and faster concerns to be assembled.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß ein Lenkgestänge mit integrierter Bremsleitung entwickelt wird. Diese ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß die Bremsflüssigkeit durch das Lenkgestänge direkt in den Bremssattel gelangt und somit auf den Bremskolben drückt. Als Lenkgestänge wird eine hohle Stahlwelle verwendet, welche die entstehenden axialen Kräfte im Lenkgestänge, hervorgerufen durch Lenkmanöver, ideal überträgt. Die Bremsflüssigkeit kann durch das Gestänge in den Bremssattel gelangen oder es kann ebenso der Bremsschlauch durch das Lenkgestänge durchgeführt werden und mit dem Kugelkopf verbunden werden. Das Kugelgelenk befindet sich direkt im Bremssattel und wird beim Betätigen der Bremse von Öl umspült. Dies gewährleistet zudem eine ausreichende Schmierung des Gelenkes. Bei der Positionierung des Kugelkopfes ist darauf zu achten, daß die Lenkgeometrie berücksichtigt wird.This object is achieved according to the invention solved that a steering linkage with integrated Brake line is developed. This is because of that characterized in that the brake fluid through the steering linkage directly into the brake caliper arrives and thus presses on the brake piston. A hollow steel shaft is used as the steering linkage used the resulting axial Steering linkage forces caused by Steering maneuvers, ideal transfers. The Brake fluid can flow in through the linkage get the caliper or it can as well the brake hose through the steering linkage be performed and with the ball head get connected. The ball joint is located directly in the brake caliper and Applying oil around the brake. This also ensures adequate Lubrication of the joint. In the Positioning the ball head is towards it make sure that the steering geometry is taken into account becomes.

Da die beweglichen Schläuche bei dieser Anordnung im Motorraum sind, ist die Standzeit dieser erheblich verlängert. Auch die Längen der Bremsleitungen werden auf ein Minimum reduziert. Ein unbefugtes Zerstören der Bremsleitungen wird ebenfalls erschwert, da außerhalb des Motorraumes, d. h. im Radhaus, sich keine flexiblen Schläuche mehr befinden. Dies ist auch ein Grund dafür, weshalb sich dieses System besonders bei Geländefahrzeugen eignet.Because the flexible hoses in this Arrangement in the engine compartment is the Service life of this extended considerably. Also the Lengths of the brake lines are set to one Minimum reduced. Unauthorized destruction the brake lines is also difficult because outside the engine compartment, d. H. in the wheel house, there are no more flexible hoses. This is also a reason why  this system especially for off-road vehicles is suitable.

Im folgenden wird ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung anhand von Zeichnungen näher erläutert. Es zeigen:In the following an embodiment of the Invention with reference to drawings explained. Show it:

Fig. 1 einen Querschnitt durch das Kugelgelenk und dessen Schnittstellen, und die innenseitige Zuführung des Bremsschlauches in das Lenkgestänge. Fig. 1 shows a cross section through the ball joint and its interfaces, and the inside supply of the brake hose in the steering linkage.

Die Lenkstange 1 gemäß Fig. 1 enthält innenseitig eine Querbohrung, durch welche die Bremsflüssigkeit in das Lenkgestänge gelangt. Diese Lenkstange 1 enthält ebenso eine axiale Bohrung, durch welche die Bremsflüssigkeit in den Kugelkopf 2 und dann in den Bremssattel 3 gelangt. Der Kugelkopf 2 ist längenverstellbar und ermöglicht somit die Einstellung der Spur des Rades. Gesichert wird über die Kontermutter 7. Mit Teil 8 und 9 wird die Kugel im Bremssattel 3 festgehalten. Das gesamte Kugelgelenk wird durch den Haltering 11 im Bremssattel 3 fixiert. Die konstruktiven Details, welche das Abdichten des Gelenkes betreffen, sind durch die Dichtungen 4, 5 und 6 gekennzeichnet. Die Manschette 10 ist nicht unbedingt notwendig, erhöht aber die zuverlässige Funktion des Gelenkes.The steering bar 1 of Fig. 1 includes inside a transverse bore through which passes the brake fluid in the steering linkage. This handlebar 1 also contains an axial bore through which the brake fluid enters the ball head 2 and then the brake caliper 3 . The ball head 2 is adjustable in length and thus enables the setting of the track of the wheel. The lock nut is used to secure 7 . With parts 8 and 9 , the ball is held in the caliper 3 . The entire ball joint is fixed in the brake caliper 3 by the retaining ring 11 . The structural details relating to the sealing of the joint are characterized by the seals 4 , 5 and 6 . The cuff 10 is not absolutely necessary, but increases the reliable function of the joint.
