Description
SPECIFICATION
Floating Caliper Disc Brake
This invention relates to a floating-caliper disc brake in which the brake shoes bear directly against the brake caliper, including a guide bolt which is adapted to be fastened in at least one flange of the brake caliper or brake support bracket and which is carried in an elastic guide element in the respective other component, i.e., the brake support bracket or the brake caliper, the bolt being held at a small distance from a bearing area of the other component by the guide element.
In a known brake of the aforementioned type (U.S. Patent No. 3,482,655), the arms of the brake support bracket have through bores carrying at their ends an outwardly open groove receiving elastic guide elements therein. The guide elements grip the guide bolt which is screwed down into the brake caliper on both sides, centering it in the clearance-providing bore.
If rotation of the brake disc is slowed down, the brake torque transmitted to the brake caliper will cause its displacement in the direction of disc rotation. The guide bolts secured in the brake caliper will thereby elastically deform the guide elements, and the outward surface, remote from the brake centre, of the guide bolt located on the disc exit side will move into force-transmitting abutment in the bore of the brake support bracket arm. The free length of the guide bolts being substantial, there occur very high bending loads.
Therefore, in order to keep deflection low, it is necessary to employ very strong guide bolts.
In another bolt guide (U.S. Patent No.
3,628,639), the guide bolts are fastened in the brake support bracket on the side of the brake support bracket and extend with their free ends on both sides of the brake disc through bores in flanges of the brake caliper which is carried on the guide bolts through elastic rings received by grooves of the bores and embracing the guide bolts. The brake support bracket has two flanges extending over the brake disc, with the brake caliper sliding therebetween with low clearance.
The confronting surfaces of these flanges and of the brake caliper are machined for improved guiding. On actuation of the brake, the brake forces transmitted to the brake caliper will displace it in the direction of disc rotation and thereby deform the elastic rings until the brake caliper is an abutment with the flange of the brake support bracket lying on the disc exit side. The disadvantage of this arrangement is the dependence of the necessary clearances upon the manufacturing and machining tolerances of both components. In addition, the surfaces used as bearing areas require special machining. If, in the extreme case, the clearance between brake caliper and flange of the brake support bracket is greater than the clearance of the guide bolts in the bores of the brake caliper, the brake forces are transmitted to the guide bolts which deflect or break under such loads.
It is an object of this invention to provide a
brake-force-transmitting bolt guide for a floating
caliper disc brake of the aforementioned type, in
which the bending load on the guide bolts is low.
According to the present invention there is
provided a floating-caliper disc brake comprising
a brake support bracket and in which brake shoes
bear directly against the brake caliper, including a
guide bolt fastened in at least one flange of the
brake caliper or brake support bracket, the bolt
being carried in an elastic guide element in the bracket or caliper respectively and held at a small
distance from a bearing area of the bracket or
caliper respectively by the guide element, the
bearing area and said flange being arranged
directly adjacent to each other, and the elastic
guide element being situated on the side of the
bearing area remote from the flange.
In an advantageous embodiment the guide bolt
is secured in position in a flange of the brake
support bracket, with the flange lying radially
above the brake disc, and extends through the
flange, rests on both sides of the brake disc in
bores in flanges of the brake caliper, with the
latter flanges being parallel to the brake disc, and
the guide elements embracing the guide bolt lie in
grooves shutting off the bore on the side remote
from the brake disc, and the bore inner wall
serves the brake caliper as a bearing area
cooperating with the guide bolt.
By securing the bolt in position, the moving
mass is kept as low as possible, the brake caliper
is securely held by the guide provided on opposite
sides of the brake disc, and the bending load on
the guide bolt is low.
If the bore end close to the brake disc in the
flanges of the brake caliper carriers recesses
whose bottoms form angles with the axis of the
bore, particles of dirt that may have entered and
will come off again when the brake is applied can fall out.
The load on the bolt can be reduced still further
by providing an additional bearing area for the
guide bolt which is obtained by arranging for the
portions of the guide bolt extending out of the flange of the brake support bracket to be held by the flanges of the brake support bracket at the
ends of the guide bolts.
In another advantageous embodiment, the
bearing area on the brake caliper is formed by a
claw gripping the guide bolt from without, the
bolt being secured on both sides of the bearing
area in flanges of the brake support bracket, and
the guide elements are arranged in flanges of the
brake caliper parallel to the brake disc on opposite
sides of the brake disc, with the guide elements
embracing the free ends of the guide bolt
extending out of the flanges of the brake support
bracket. This arrangement results in a separation
of guide and bearing area, and the guide elements
can be made longer to provide for stability of the
brake caliper during vibrations. The load on the
bolt has been reduced still further, because the
portion of the guide bolt which is secured in
position in the brake support bracket is to be considered as firmly clamped in position.
Providing in the inner side of the claw a recess which is open towards the claw's end ensures that entered particles of dirt which come off when the brake is applied fall out and do not obstruct the clearance required for the free sliding motion of the brake caliper.
If the bores in the brake caliper's flanges parallel with the brake disc are so designed that the bore inner wall serves as an additional bearing area for the brake caliper and the guide elements lie in a groove of the bore, the brake force occurring is distributed more equally over the guide bolt.
Because the clearange between the bearing areas of the brake caliper and the guide bolt limits the compression of the elastic guide elements, detrimental permanent deformations cannot occur. The clearance-free and axially slightly slidable guide of the brake caliper remains operative even under maximum load.
Embodiments of the invention will be described in the following with reference to the accompanying drawings, wherein;
Figure 1 is a top plan view of a floating-caliper disc brake having a bolt guide including a claw for force transmission, in accordance with one embodiment of the invention;
Figure 2 is a section view of the bolt guide of
Figure 1;
Figure 3 is a view of the claw sectioned along the Ill-Ill of Figure 2;
Figure 4 is a top plan view of a floating-caliper disc brake including force-transmitting bearing areas in the flanges of the brake caliper, according to a second embodiment of the invention and
Figure 5 is a view of a bore in the flange of the brake caliper of Figure 4.
Referring to Figure 1, reference numeral 1 designates the brake caliper, 2 the brake support bracket, and 3 the guide bolt. Supported in the brake caliper are the brake shoes 4, 9, with brake shoe 9 close to the piston being held axially slidably by a bolt 11 (Figure 2) extending through its backing plate 7 and secured in brake caliper 1, while brake shoe 4 is in positive engagement with the brake caliper by a projection 10 provided in its backing plate 6. Between two flanges 5, 8 parallel with brake disc 22, the brake caliper carries an open claw 12 gripping guide bolt 3 from without the clearance and cooperating with its surface 1 5 remote from the brake centre. The portion of the guide bolt gripped by the claw bears upon two flanges 13, 14 formed at brake support bracket 2.
Guide bolt 3 has two different diameters and carries at the place of transition a thread 1 6 with which it threads into flange 1 3 of the brake support bracket arm. The brake caliper slides on the guide bolt's ends 17, 1 8 extending out of flanges 13, 14 by means of elastic guide elements 19, 20 which are arranged in bores in flanges 5, 8 of the brake caliper. This arrangement results in an alignment of the claw such that it provides a defined clearance A relative to the bolts.
If the brake is operated, the brake forces occurring will drag the caliper along in the direction of rotation 21 of brake disc 22. Thereby the brake support bracket arm on the disc exit side (not shown) will take up no substantial brake forces because the guide bolt is able to extend through the opening of the claw. in contrast thereto, the brake support bracket arm 2 on the disc entry side will take up nearly the whole amount of brake forces because on displacement of brake caliper 1 the elastic guide elements 1 9, 20 will yield until clearance A between claw 12 and guide bolt 3 is overcome and positive- and frictional-engagement contact is established between brake caliper 1 and brake support bracket 2 through guide bolt 3.
When load is relieved of the brake, the elastic guide elements 19, 20 will return to their original positions as a result of the elastic deformation and separate the bearing areas. Then the caliper is again in connection with only the guide bolts through the guide elements 19, 20, and a slight sliding back motion of brake caliper 1 in release position is thus ensured. Figure 3 shows recess 23 in the inner side of claw 12 in order to enable entered dirt to fall out again, thereby preventing obstruction of clearance A.
Referring to Figure 4, the brake shoes 48, 49 are supported in the brake caliper 30 in the same manner as in Figure 1. The bearing areas for supporting brake caliper 30 are formed by the bore walls 31 of bores 32 in flanges 33 to 36 of the brake caliper, which flanges are parallel with brake disc 47. Towards the outer edges of the brake caliper, bores 32 carry an open groove receiving axially immovably therein the elastic guide elements 37. Towards the inside of the brake, bores 32 carry recesses 38 (Figure 5) whose bottoms form angles with the bore axis.
Guide bolts 39, 40 extend through bores 32 with radial clearance A and are aligned in relation to the bearing areas of the brake caliper formed by bore walls 31 by guide elements 37. Guide bolts 39, 40 extend through flanges 43 positioned radially outwardly above brake disc 47 and are held at their ends by flanges 42, 52 of brake support bracket 41, which flanges embrace flanges 33,34 and 35, 36, respectively, of the brake caliper, with the threaded ends 44, 45 of guide bolts 39, 40 being threaded into flanges 42.
If brake disc 47 rotating in the direction of arrow 46 is slowed down by engagement of brake shoes 48, 49 therewith, the brake forces transmitted to brake caliper 30 will drag the brake caliper along in the direction of movement of the brake disc, overcome clearance A and thereby compress guide elements 37. On the entry side of brake disc 47, bearing areas 31 of the brake caliper then transmit the brake forces to brake support bracket 41 via surface 50 of guide bolt 39, which surface is on the side remote from the centre of the brake, while the brake forces on the disc exit side are transmitted to brake support bracket 41 via bearing areas 31 and surface 51 of guide bolt 40, which surface is on the side close to the centre of the brake. Thereby the brake force is distributed nearly equally to the brake support bracket.When the brake is relieved of the load, the elastic guide elements will return to their original positions and separate the force-transmitting bearing areas.
Brake caliper 30 again bears only on guide elements 37 and is able to safely slide back into the brake release position.
