Definitions
- the present invention relates to an hydraulic pump for brakes or clutches of motor vehicles or, more generally, for vehicles controllable by handlebars and, in particular, a pump comprising a reservoir and a pump body, as described in the preamble of claim 1.
- Hydraulic pumps of the type described above and currently on the market are constituted basically by a pump body which accommodates a piston capable of acting on a working fluid, and a reservoir for the fluid, which reservoir communicates with the pump body.
- both the pump body and the reservoir are mounted on the handlebars of a motor vehicle in such a manner that a control lever, capable of acting on a piston, is arranged facing a handlebar grip.
- the reservoir can be constructed integrally with the pump body or separately therefrom and connected thereto by means of a pipe.
- the pump body has an opening, formed in its wall, which permits the passage of fluid from the reservoir to the inside of the pump body.
- the known pump body has an internal cavity closed by a wall provided with an opening arranged on the top, or the portion facing a plane defined by the free surface of the fluid which fills the reservoir to maximum capacity.
- This opening is suitable for receiving the fluid which falls by gravity, or freely, from an outlet of the reservoir.
- the working fluid of the reservoir where, for example, it is used for a braking system, acts principally as a reserve in order to permit the piston the further travel necessary to compensate for the wear of the friction material of the pads .
- the technical problem underlying this invention is to provide a pump for motorcycle applications which is designed structurally and functionally to avoid the disadvantages explained above with reference to the prior art.
- Figure la is a partially sectional exploded axonometric view of a pump according to a first embodiment
- Figure lb is a partially sectional exploded axonometric view of a pump according to a further embodiment, viewed from the side opposite that facing the handlebars or the driver;
- Figure 2a is an exploded axonometric cross-section through the pump of Figure la taken on the line II-II;
- Figure 2b is a cross-sectional view of the pump of Figure la taken on the line II-II;
- Figure 3a is an exploded axonometric cross-section through a pump according to yet another embodiment
- Figure 3b is a cross-sectional view of the pump of Figure 3a;
- Figure 4 is a cross-sectional view of a pump according to a fourth embodiment
- Figure 5a is a cross-sectional view of a pump according to a fifth embodiment of the invention.
- Figure 5b is an axonometric view of a detail of the pump of Figure 5a;
- FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view of a pump according to a sixth embodiment of the invention.
- working fluid is to be understood as meaning any type of fluid suitable for use in braking systems or in clutch systems, for example for applications in vehicles controllable by handlebars.
- the above-mentioned fluid is usually contained in a reservoir closed at the top by a cover.
- a flexible diaphragm to which the fluid adheres is also associated with the cover.
- the free surface of the fluid represents the fluid surface which is in contact with the above-mentioned diaphragm.
- a pump comprising a fork or lever lugs 2, a handlebar seat 3, a reservoir 4 and a pump body 5 is generally and diagrammatically indicated 1.
- the lever lugs 2 support in an articulated and widely known manner a control lever 20, such as, for example, a control lever for a brake.
- the handlebar seat 3 is formed integrally with the reservoir 4 in such a manner that it projects from one of the walls thereof, as described hereinafter.
- the handlebar seat 3 is shaped in such a manner as to accommodate a portion of a set of handlebars 30.
- the seat is shaped semi- cylindrically in order to accommodate a tubular portion of a set of handlebars 30.
- a cap 31 known per se which connects the pump 1 securely to the handlebars 30 can be associated with the seat.
- the reservoir 4 is substantially in the form of a parallelepiped provided with an opening 40 at the top which is reversibly closed by a cover 41, two larger lateral walls 42 and 43, a front wall 44, a rear wall 45 opposite the front wall, and a base 46, or base wall, opposite the opening 40.
- the cover 41 can be associated with an entirely conventional compensating diaphragm 410 which is in contact with the free surface L of the working fluid contained in the reservoir, represented in the drawings with a fluid level substantially at the maximum capacity of the reservoir.
- the level L of the fluid at the maximum capacity of the reservoir defines a plane P arranged horizontally.
- the handlebar seat 3 described above projects from the larger lateral wall 43 and in the vicinity of the rear wall 45, while an orifice 47 closed by a window (not shown) for observing the level of the working fluid contained in the reservoir 4 is provided in the vicinity of the front wall 44.
- the orifice 47 is provided in the wall facing the handlebars and thus the driver of the vehicle ( Figure la) .
- the pump body 5 is substantially cylindrical and, according to one embodiment, is formed integrally with the base 46 of the reservoir 4.
- the pump body 5, according to one embodiment, extends longitudinally and substantially parallel with the plane P.
- the pump body 5 is also provided with an outlet 50 projecting from the front wall 44.
- the pump body 5 has a wall 51 of substantially circular cross-section delimiting an internal cavity 52 enabling a floating piston (not shown) to be mounted in a sliding and leaktight or sealing manner.
- the wall 51 of the pump body 5 is provided with a top T or, in other words, with an upper end or, again in other words, an end facing the plane P.
- the wall 51 is provided with an opening 53 formed in a portion of the wall 51 which extends away from the top T.
- the opening 53 opens out on the side facing the outlet or in front of a main front seal of the floating piston.
- the opening 53 is flanked at the same level by a compensating through-hole 53' which opens out behind the floating piston.
- the compensating hole 53' is necessary for the passage of fluid from the reservoir to the cavity of the pump body while the system is being filled.
- the opening 53 permits the passage of fluid forwardly relative to the piston of the pump, for example, in order to add to the circuit the fluid necessary for compensating for the wear of the friction material of the pads, while the compensating hole enables the fluid to move easily and rapidly into the pipes of the hydraulic circuit when the system is being filled. Therefore, the opening 53 and the compensating hole 53' are always arranged at the same level on the wall of the pump body.
- the opening 53 is provided in a portion of the wall 51 of the pump body 5 between 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock, referring to a clock dial which can be associated with a cross-section of the pump body 5. More preferably, the opening 53 is provided at the point on the above-mentioned clock dial defined by 3 o'clock.
- a semi-axis X-X which extends outside the pump body 5 perpendicularly to its wall 51 can be associated with the opening 53.
- the semi-axis X-X represented in Figure 2a is parallel with the plane P of the maximum level of. the free surface L.
- the hydraulic pump 1 also comprises conveying means 6 which enable the working fluid to pass from the reservoir 4 to the pump body 5 through the opening 53 and the compensating hole 53' .
- the conveying means 6 are defined by a cavity 60 which, for example, also extends below the opening 53.
- the cavity 60 is delimited by an internal surface 430 of the lateral wall 43 of the reservoir 4, by a surface portion 511 of the pump body 5, which surface portion 511 faces the internal surface 430, and by the surface of the base 46 of the reservoir 4, which surface faces the plane P.
- the reservoir 4 can be reduced in height by a maximum amount corresponding to the diameter of the cross-section of the pump body 5 plus a thickness of the wall 51 of the pump body so that, during the operation of the pump, the free surface of the fluid contained in the reservoir is able to fall below the top of the pump body without the fluid exposing the opening. It therefore follows that, owing to the solution proposed, the space requirement of the reservoir is substantially reduced with the result that it is possible to manufacture the various components of a motor vehicle more easily and economically by avoiding the provision of bulky housings for the reservoir in the bodywork elements. Consequently, the aesthetics of a motor vehicle can also be improved.
- the opening 53 and the compensating hole 53' are arranged from 3 o'clock to 9 o'clock on the above-mentioned clock dial, is nevertheless appreciated when the opening 53 and the compensating hole 53' are provided in respective positions on a portion of the pump body removed to any extent from its top T, for example arranged from 1 o'clock to 11 o'clock of the clock dial or, advantageously, from 2 o'clock to 10 o'clock.
- the orifice 47 in addition to permitting the fitting of the above-mentioned window, also advantageously permits the insertion of a tool for forming the opening 53 in the wall 51 of the pump body 5 before the fitting of the window.
- the above- mentioned opening equipped with a window is provided in the wall opposite the handlebars and the driver.
- This embodiment enables the level of the fluid contained in the reservoir to be monitored even when the reservoir is arranged near the pump body or directly beside it and partially hidden by the handlebars ( Figure lb) .
- the conveying means 6 just described convey the working fluid from the reservoir 4 to the pump body 5 along a U-shaped fluid path.
- the working fluid descends by simple gravity from the free surface L towards the base 46 of the reservoir 4 in order then to re-ascend inside the pump body 5, passing through the opening 53.
- the hydraulic pump according to the invention in addition to enabling the height of the reservoir to be reduced, can also allow the free surface of the fluid to fall to a level which is lower than that of the fluid in the pump body, preventing the ingress of air into the pump body as long as the level of the opening 53 in the pump body is not reached.
- a braking system it is well known that the ingress of air would bring about an extremely dangerous loss of efficiency in the entire braking system and would also make it impossible to brake the vehicle.
- the free surface of the working fluid in the reservoir must always be higher than the opening 53 in the pump body.
- a further advantage afforded by the invention results from the fact that the opening 53 is arranged in narrow spaces, such as those formed by the cavity 60 and, thus, any air-emulsified fluid present in the reservoir is prevented from reaching the vicinity of the opening 53, thus eliminating the possibility of air bubbles entering the pump body.
- Figures 3a and 3b show a variant of the present invention.
- the pump 101 has a pump body 5 manufactured integrally with the base 46 of the reservoir 4 in such a manner that it is substantially surrounded by the reservoir. It follows that substantially all of the wall 51 of the pump body 5 is arranged substantially inside the reservoir 4. Thus, the wall 51 may be provided with a further opening 54 opposite the opening 53.
- the openings 53 and 54 are at 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock, respectively, with reference to the clock dial identified above . It should also be noted that other conveying means 7 are provided also for the opening 54, the conveying means 7 defining a cavity 70 which. is entirely the same as and reflective relative to that described above.
- the cavity 70 is structurally similar to the cavity 60 so that it likewise operates in the manner of a siphon.
- a further advantage afforded by this variant of the invention resides in the fact that the entry of fluid from the reservoir 4 into the pump body 5 becomes more rapid and consequently the braking action is also more rapid .
- Figure 4 represents a further variant in which the pump body 5 of a pump 102 is completely surrounded by the reservoir 4.
- the pump body 5 is suspended inside the reservoir 4 near the base 46 by means of support members 12.
- the support members 12 are preferably represented by ribs or cross-members which join the lateral walls 42 and 43 to the wall 51 of the pump body 5.
- the wall 51 of the pump body 5 has an opening 55 provided at 6 o'clock relative to the above-mentioned clock dial, enabling the space requirement of the reservoir 4 to be reduced still further.
- a semi-axis X-X which extends outside the pump body 5 perpendicularly to the plane P of the maximum level of the free surface L can be associated with the opening 55.
- the base 46 of the reservoir 4 is substantially flat, parallel with the plane P and provided with a further orifice 48 which is closed in a leaktight manner by a plug (not shown) .
- the orifice is formed at the location of the opening 55 and has the function of enabling a tool to enter to form the opening 55 in the pump body 5.
- the wall 43 of the reservoir 4 of the pump 102 is also provided with an orifice 47 analogous to that represented in Figures 2a, 2b and 3a,
- the pump bodies 5 are positioned at least partially below the plane P defined by the free surface of the working fluid under conditions of maximum filling of the reservoir.
- the pump bodies are connected to the respective reservoirs 4 by conveying means 6 represented diagrammatically in Figures 5a and 6.
- the opening 56 is provided in a portion of the wall 51 of the pump body 5 between 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock of a clock which can be associated with a cross-section of the pump body 5.
- the opening is located at that point on the wall which is defined by 8 o'clock.
- a semi-axis X-X extending outside the pump body 5 away from the plane P of the maximum level of the free surface L can be associated with the opening 56.
- the conveying means 6 comprise a pipe 8 having one end 9 coupled to an outlet provided in the base 46 of the reservoir 4 and one end 10 coupled to a connector 11.
- the connector 11 is in turn coupled to the pump body 5 at the opening 55, being accommodated, for example, in a seat provided in the pump body 5.
- this connector is a connector of the engaging type .
- the pipe 8 conveys the working fluid along a U-shaped fluid- path. In other words, this path forms a siphon.
- the hydraulic pump 104 differs from the hydraulic pump 103 of Figures 5a and 5b in the position of the opening 57 in the pump body 5.
- the opening 57 is provided at that point on the wall
- the pump 104 comprises conveying means 6 which are entirely analogous to those described above and will therefore not be exemplified further. It will be clear from the above presentation that the hydraulic pump in vehicles controllable by handlebars according to the present invention enables the problems described with reference to the prior art to be solved.
- the reduction in space requirement afforded by the technical solution according to the invention also affords some ease of integration of a pump into a motor vehicle, at the same time improving the aesthetics thereof.
- the present invention enables better use to be made of the working fluid available by allowing the quantity of fluid between the top of the pump body and the base of the reservoir to be used, unlike the situation with the pumps according to the prior art.
- the hydraulic pump according to the present invention permits the elimination of any appendages of the compensating diaphragm which are necessary in the pumps of the prior art to prevent the emulsified fluid from moving to the vicinity of the opening. It should be underlined that the embodiment described above with reference to Figure 4 enables the above-mentioned reduction in the space requirement and, at the same time, the siphon effect to be optimised because the opening 55 is on the opposite surface of the pump body 5 to the plane P defined by the free surface L and in close proximity to the base 46 of the reservoir 4.
- the reservoir 4 could even be reduced to a gap surrounding the pump body 5 and enabling the free surface L to fall well below the top T of the pump body 5.
- the siphon effect is greatly increased compared with the solutions represented in Figures 2a, 2b and 3a, 3b.
