Description

AN ELECTRONIC DISK BRAKE

More particularly, the present invention relates to an electronic disk brake, and more particularly, to a disk brake which is configured such that when the piston is advanced by hydraulic pressure during service braking to separate the piston and the nut spindle, the nut spindle vibrates and collides with the inner wall of the spindle And an anti-vibration spring on the nut spindle to prevent vibration.

The brake is a braking device used for decelerating or stopping the speed of a running vehicle. In recent years, an electronic parking brake (EPB) system for electronically controlling the driving of a parking brake has been used, and is mounted on a normal disk brake to perform a parking brake function. In addition, the vehicle is equipped with ABS (Anti-lock Brake System) or ESC (Electronic Stability Control), which is an auxiliary safety device to prevent slipping of the vehicle by controlling the fluid pressure during braking, and is used together with the electronic parking brake system.

1 is a view showing a schematic configuration of an electronic disc brake according to the prior art.

1, an electronic disk brake according to the related art includes a disk 1 rotated together with wheels of a vehicle, a pair of pad plates (not shown) provided on both sides of the disk 1 and pressing the disk 1 And a piston (32) slidably mounted on the carrier (20) and provided with a piston (32) movably installed for pressing the pair of pad plates (11, 12) And a spindle unit 50 that converts the rotational force of the motor 40 into a linear motion and transfers the rotational motion to the piston 32. The housing 30 includes a housing 30, a motor 40 for generating a driving force,

The pair of pad plates 11 and 12 may be divided into an inner pad plate 12 adjacent to the piston 32 and an outer pad plate 11 disposed opposite thereto.

A cylinder 33 is provided at one side of the caliper housing 30 and a piston 32 for urging the inner pad plate 12 toward the disk 1 is provided in the cylinder 33. The fingers 31 bent downward are integrally connected to the cylinder 33 at the other side of the caliper housing 30 so that the outer pad plate 11 is pressed against the disk 1 together with the sliding movement of the caliper housing 30. [ It is possible to do.

The carrier 20 is fixed to the vehicle body and guides the pad plates 11 and 12 to move back and forth toward the disc 1 while preventing the pair of pad plates 11 and 12 from being separated.

When the spindle 51 is rotated by the driving of the motor 40 during the braking operation, the piston 32 is rotated forward and backward by the hydraulic pressure at the time of service braking, (52) reciprocates on the spindle (51) and presses the inner pad plate (12) toward the disk (1).

When the piston 32 is advanced by hydraulic pressure during service braking, the spindle unit 50, which has been in contact with the inner surface of the piston 32, is separated from the piston 32, Is floating in the inner space of the piston (32). Therefore, when the vehicle body is shaken or other vibration occurs, the nut spindle 52 may vibrate in the piston 32 and strike against the inner wall of the piston 32 to generate vibration noise.

When the nut spindle 52 vibrates in the inner space of the piston 32 and the spindle 52 is hit, the brake durability may be deteriorated and a noise may be generated, thereby reducing the ride feeling.

The spindle unit 150 is connected to the motor 140 And a nut spindle 152 screwed with the spindle shaft 151 and reciprocating in a rotating direction of the spindle shaft 151. The nut spindle 152 and the nut spindle 152 are rotatable, The piston 132 is provided with a nut spindle 152, And an elastic unit (170) for keeping the piston (132) separated from the inner wall of the piston (132).

The carrier 120 is fixed to the vehicle body and guides the pad plate 110 to move back and forth toward the disc 100 while preventing the pad plate 110 from being separated.

The pad plate 110 includes an inner pad plate 112 adjacent to the piston 132 and an outer pad plate 111 disposed on the opposite side of the inner pad plate 112. The pair of pad plates 110, Are provided on both sides of the disc 100 rotating together with the wheels of the vehicle.

The caliper housing 130 is provided on one side of the carrier 120, and the cylinder 133 is formed on the inside thereof. A piston 132 and a spindle unit 150 are provided on the inner side of the cylinder 133. The piston 132 is closed at the other side and the inside is formed in a cup shape and the other side reciprocates in a direction perpendicular to the inner pad plate 112 to press the inner pad plate 112 .

The spindle unit 150 is provided inside the piston 132 and is composed of a spindle shaft 151 and a nut spindle 152. The spindle shaft 151 has a male screw on an outer circumferential surface thereof. The spindle shaft 151 is provided on the central axis of the cylinder 133, and the reducer 160 and the motor 140 are connected to one end. The nut spindle 152 is provided with a female screw threadably engageable with the spindle shaft 151 inside the body and has a nose portion 153 extended to correspond to the inner wall of the piston 132 on the other side . When the spindle shaft 151 rotates in one direction or the other direction as described above, the nut spindle 152 screwed to the spindle shaft 151 moves to one side or the other side and presses the piston 132, (Not shown). At this time, the nose portion 153 is configured to move in the front and rear direction on the inner wall of the piston 132 but not to rotate, and reciprocates according to the rotational motion of the spindle shaft 151.

A finger 131 bent downward is integrally connected to the cylinder 133 at the other side of the caliper housing 130 so that the outer pad plate 111 is pressed against the disk 100 together with the sliding movement of the caliper housing 130. [ It is possible to do.

The above-described structure is a general structure of a conventional electronic disc brake, and a detailed description thereof will be omitted. The structure of the electronic disk brake according to the present invention is not limited to the above-described structure. If the elastic unit 170 is provided on the nut spindle 152 as described later, Can be applied to both.

The electronic disk brake according to the present invention has an elastic unit 170 (not shown) which keeps the nut spindle 152 spaced from the inner wall of the piston 132 between the nut spindle 152 and the piston 132 in the above- ).

The elastic unit 170 may be composed of a coupling ring 173 and a plurality of legs 175 branched from the coupling ring 173 in the other direction as shown in FIG. The coupling ring 173 is coupled to the outside of the body of the nut spindle 152 while the body of the nut spindle 152 is inserted. At this time, if necessary, a fixing groove (not shown) for fixing the elastic unit 170 to the body of the nut spindle 152 may be provided, or a fixing means may be provided on the coupling ring 173.

The plurality of leg portions 175 branched from the edge of the coupling ring 173 extend in the other direction (nose direction) and extend to the outside of the edge of the nose portion 153 of the nut spindle 152. The nose portion 153 is provided inside the piston 132 and is coupled to the spindle shaft 151. When the nose portion 153 is rotated to prevent the nut spindle 152 from rotating together when the spindle shaft 151 rotates, May be configured to face the inner wall of the piston 132, and a part thereof may be configured to be spaced apart. The leg portion 175 of the elastic unit 170 supports the outer side of the remaining portion of the nose portion 153 except for the portion where the nose portion 153 and the piston 132 face each other 132 of the spindle unit 150 to prevent the spindle unit 150 from rocking.

In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the leg portion 175 may be rounded from the coupling ring 173 to the outside of the edge of the nose portion 153 as shown in the figure. The end of the leg portion 175 may be rounded or curled toward the center of the nut spindle 152. This is because the end of the leg portion 175 which contacts the piston 132 when the spindle unit 150 reciprocates on the inner surface of the piston 132 rubs against the inner wall of the piston 132, So that it is prevented from being damaged. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the leg portions 175 branched from the body of the elastic unit 170 may be composed of six pieces. It is a matter of course that this structure is suitable for the shape of the nuts 153 currently used, and it is needless to say that the number of the leg portions 175 can be varied as needed.

The piston 132 presses the pad plate 110 by the rotation of the motor 140 and the spindle shaft 151 or the piston 132 presses the pad plate 110 by the rotation of the motor 140 and the spindle shaft 151. [ The nose portion 153 is in close contact with the inner wall of the piston 132. Therefore, the spindle unit 150 is shaken and does not rock. However, at the time of service braking, the spindle unit 150 remains and the piston 132 presses the inner pad plate 112 while advancing toward the other side by the hydraulic pressure, so that the other side of the nose portion 153 is engaged with the piston 132). Therefore, when vibration occurs in any form in this state, the nuts 153 can be swung together and hit the inner wall of the piston 132. [ However, since the elastic disc unit 170 is provided between the nut spindle 152 and the piston 132, the elastic disc unit 170 can move the nut spindle 152 to the inner surface of the piston 132, So that the nut spindle 152 does not collide with the inner wall of the piston 132. As shown in FIG.

Although the present invention has been described in connection with certain exemplary embodiments, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited to the disclosed exemplary embodiments. Therefore, the scope of the present invention should not be limited by the described embodiments, but should be defined by the appended claims and equivalents thereof.
