Description
1 TITLE AUTOMATIC DISC BRAKE Beitr3ReeNB ep Tiir= The invention relates to
disc brakes and disc brake systems. Historically, in the United States, the use of disc brakes has primarily been limited to front wheel applications with the typical drum brake system used on rear wheel installations. However, an interest in rear wheel disc brakes is developing.
Use of rear wheel disc brakes requires an adequate and dependable mechanical parking brake system preferably integral to the disc brake. Such an integral system is preferably includes an adjustment mechanism whereby the friction pad to rotor clearance is maintained and automat icall ly adjusted for frict- Jcn padIL wear.
ef- Tiii=- According to the present invention, a mechanical parking brake assembly, integral to the disc brake mechanism and having automatic wear adjustment features, is disclosed.
The novel adjusting mechanism comprises an axial thrust screw having an axial differential pressure acting there across. An adjusting nut is threadably received on the thrust screw and rotatably attached to t4-.e hydraulic free to actuating piston such that the adjusting nut is J rotate with respect to the thrust. screw and piston.
The hydraulic pressure acting upon the thrust screw creates 'opposing forces, the resultant cf: which is applied to a resisting mechanical spring. So long as the hydraulic pressure is less than a predetermined value, approximately 200 si for a typical automobile brake system, the p J resultant hydraulic force acting upon the thrust screw is insufficient to overcome the given resisting spring force 2 c KA-1338A and the thrust screw remains stationary. As the hydraulic piston moves upon hydraulic actuation of the brake, the adjusting nut is dragged along and rotatingly advances relative to the thrust screw, thereby adjusting for friction pad wear. As resistance between the disc and friction pads increase, a proportional increase in hydraulic pressure occurs. When the resultant hydraulic force acting upon the thrust screw is sufficient to overcome the resisting mechanical spring, the thrust screw in combination with the adjusting nut translates toward the piston causing the adjusting nut to frictionally engage the -ing nut piston preventing any further advance of the adjust relative to the thrust screw, thereby ending the adjustment cycle.
is Although the adjusting mechanism is taught in combination with a mechanical parking brake it may also be adapted to any hydraulic disc brake T,,ec.-,anis,-.i.

r 3 KA-1338A DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
Figure I shows a typical floating caliper disc brake assembly 10. Caliper 11 is slidably supported upon caliper guide pin assemblies 12L and 12R. Pins 12L and 12R are affixed to anchor plate 13 which in turn supports the inboard and outboard friction pad assemblies 14a and 14b such that the braking torque is transmitted directly to anchor plate 13.
Figures 2 and 3 shbw a cross-section and an exploded view of my improved combined mechanical parking brake and friction pad wear adjuster mechanism. Caliper 11 includes a piston cylinder bore 21 and a two stepped cam actuator bore 22a and 22b. Positioned within hydraulic piston bore 21 is hydraulic piston 30 forming a hydraulic seal with : piston seal 18. Piston 30 piston bore 21 by means of includes a three-stec-Ded i.nternal bore comprising an e.-.d bore 31, an adjustment nut bore 32 and an assembly access bore 33. Assembled within piston 30 is adjusting nut 35, ball bearing assembly 36, flat washer 34, wavy washer 37 and lock ring 38.
Adjusting nut 35 and bore 32 are shown as having J matching conical surfaces, however, any other set of matCing surfaces may be used as will become more apparent upon understanding the functional relationship between these surfaces as described below. It may be desirable, unde-r certain operating conditions, to provide matching serrations or other fr-ctionally engaging means on these mating surfaces.
Thrust screw 40 ax-Ja6ly extends from cam plate 51 threadingly engaging adjusting nut 35. Thrust screw threads 41 and the matching threads of adjusting nut 35 are of such pitch that nut 35 will rotatingly translate along screw 40 in response to a given force applied to nut 35.
For example, a three start buttress thread having 10 threads per inch has been found to be satisfactory. However, any suitable multistart high helix thread may be 4 KA- 13 3 8A used. Antirotation stud 53 engages slot 48 in cam plate 51, thereby restraining rotation of cam plate 51 and thrust screw 40. Antirotation stud 53 is hydraulically sealed by O-ring 29 and held in place by threaded plug 55 and spacer 28. Threaded into thrust screw 40, axially opposite cam plate 51, is end plug 42 forming a hydraulic seal with end bore 31 by means of O-ring 44 such that hydraulic actuating pressure acts upon the inboard surface area of plug 42 and atmospheric pressure acts upon the outboard surface area by way of atmospheric vent 26.
In the non-applied brake mode (at rest position), wavy washer 37 exerts a sufficient outboard axial force upon adjusting nut 35, acting through ball bearing asseirbly 36, to force adjusting nut 35 into frictional engagement with piston 30, as shown in Figure 2.
Positioned between piston bore 21 and actuating bore 22a is spring abutment plate 45 having a central apertu-re 43 through which thrust screw 40 extends and permlts hydraulic fluid passage between bores 21 and 22a. Abutment spring plate 45 is held in position by snap ring 46 and the compression of conical spring 47 between cam plate 51 and spring plate 45.
Witthin the cam actuator bore 22a is a rotary ball cam actuating mechanism comprising stationary cam plate 51, rotary cam plate 50, ball bearing race assembly 60, and thrust bearing 57. Rotary cam shaft 56 extends through and forms a hydraulic seal with bore 22b by means of O-ring 49 and encages the parking brake actuation lever 19.
Ball bearing race assembly 60 comprises race 622, balls 61, and eccentric pin lever 70. Eccentric lever 70 comprises oppositely extending pins 71 and 72 aff4ixed to an at opposite ends of swivel plate 73. As best seen in Figures 6 and 7, pivot pin 74 is rotatingly received in notch 64 of race 62 such that pin 71 extends axially outboard of race 62 and pin 72 extends inboard of race 62.
Ball bearing race assembly 60 is positioned between c KA-1338A stationally cam plate 51 and rotary cam plate 50 such that race pivot 63 is received within pivot hole 54 of cam plate 51 and pins 71 and 72 of the eccentric pin lever 70 engages pin hole 58 in stationary cam plate 51 and slot 59 in rotary cam plate 50, respectively, thereby positioning balls 61 adjacent their respective cam plate surfaces 52. Cam plates 51 and 50 are both provided with corresponding cam plate surfaces 52.
Mechanical Operation:
To operate the mechanicaL parking brake feature, the mechanical actuating lever 19 is caused to rotate by action of brake cable 17. Thus rotatable cam plate 50 rotates afecting axial translation of stationary cam plate 51 resulting in an axial force being applied to thrust screw force is sufficient to compress the 40. When the axial conical spring 47, thrust screw 40 axially translates toward rotor 15, thereby forcing adjusting nut 35 into abutting engagement with hydraulic piston.10 and urg--ng piston 30 into abutting contact with the inboard friction pad assembly 14a; the reaction force acting upon caliper 11 causes the caliper to translate in an inboard direction thereby urging the caliper outboard leg 16 into abutting contact with outboard friction pad assembly 14b. Thus bot.h inboard and outboard friction pad assembi'Les 14a and 14b are caused to frictionally engages rotor 15.
Upon release of the mechanical parking brake, mechanical actuating lever 19 is caused to return to its non applied position, thereby per-mitting the energy stored within the conical spring 47, by compression thereof during mechanical brake application, to affect retraction of thrust screw 40, adjusting nut 35, piston 30, and friction pad assembly 14a.
As rotatable cam 50 rotates relative to stationary cam 51, race 62 tracks with balls 61 by the pivotal action of swivel plate 73 about pivot pin 74. Although the eccentric 6 KA-1338A pin lever 70 services no necessary purpose during mechanical operation of the brake its utility will be appreciated during hydraulic operation of the brake as described below.
Hydraulic Operation:
Hydraulic fluid and hydraulic actuating pressure is supplied by the vehicle master cylinder (not shown) to inlet port 24, thereby hydraulically pressurizing the combined volume of piston bore 21 and mechanical actuator bore 22a and 22b. End bore 31 is also pressurized by the flow of hydraulic fluid past adjusting nut 35 through axial passageways 39 in piston 30. When hydraulically actuated, piston 30 is urged toward rotor 15 so as to affect frictional engagement between friction pad assemblies 14a and 14b and rotor 15. As piston 30 translates toward rotor 15, beyond the running clearance between adjust.'ng nut 35 and thrust screw threads 41, separation occurs between the conical portion of adjust-ing nut 35 and bore 32 by compression of wavy washer 37. 'When sufficient separation occurs eliminating the frictional engagement between the adjusting nut 35 and bore 32, a condition which results from frictional wear of the friction pad assembly 14a, the energy stored in wavy washek 37, by compression thereof, will apply an outboard axial force upon adjusting nut 35, acting through ball bearing assembly 36, causing rotational outboard translation of adjusting nut 35 along thrust screw 40 until adjusting nut 35 is restored tc frictional. encacement with bore 32, thereby adjusting the axial position of hydraulic piston 30, with respect to thrust screw 40, for wear of friction pad assemblies 14a and 14b.
During the commencement of hydraulic brake actuation, cam plate 51 and thrust screw 40 are fixed in place as shown in Figure 2 by the action of conical spring 47 overcoming the differential hydraulic pressure acting UDon cam plate 51. However, as the hydraulic actuating pressure 7 KA- 13 3 8A continues to increase (generally beyond 200 psi) the resulting outboard axial force acting upon the cross sectional area of end plug 42 will overcome the force of conical spring 47 thus causing cam plate 51, thrust screw 40 and the adjusting but to translate axially outboard thereby forcing adjusting nut 35 into firm frictional contact with bore 32 in piston 30 preventing'rotational outboard translation of adjusting nut 35 relative to thrust screw 40. This prevents over-adjustment of piston 30 due to caliper deflection and compression of the frictional material of friction pad assemblies 14a and 14b.
It will be recognized that under hydraulic actUat4on of the brake as described immediately above, cam plate 51 will axially translate outboard and separate from cam plate 50. Under this condition the eccentric pin lever 70 acts to maintain the orientation of ball bearing race assembly with respect to cam plate 50 and cam, plate 51. When can.
plate 50 and 51 are separated and cam plate 50 is rotated to cam plate 51, the rotational action of eccentric pin 'ever 70 about 74 causes circumferential translat4on of pivot 714 thereby rotating ball bearing race assembly 60 t 4 proportional to the angular rota.6on of cam plate 50 so as to maintain the angular displacement of balls 61 with respect to cam plate surface 52.
Brake Servicing: Upon servicing of the brake it may be necessary to push the actuation piston 30 back into bore 21 to sufficiently separate friction pad assembly 14a from rotor 15 for removal of caliper 11. This is accomplished by -e 51 and disengagement of antirotation stud 53 from cam plat rotating the mechanical actuation lever 19 clockwise thereby retracting adjusting nut 35 thus permitting push back of piston 30. Antirotation stud 53 is disengaged from cam plate 51 by removing threaded plug 55 and spacer 28 followed by replacement of Plug 55 and hydraulic actuation c 8 c KA-1338A of the brake; the hydraulic pressure within bore 22a will then disengage stud 53 from cam plate 51 without opening the hydraulic system to the atmosphere.
It is to be understood that the foregoing embodiments.are those preferred by the inventor. Various changes and modifications may be made-without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims.
