Disc brake working principle 1
Now the brake on the market mainly has two kinds: one is the disc brake is a drum brake. Their functions are the same but the principle is the same, is the general principle, the use of non mutual friction between the rotating element and is connected with the wheel (or gear shaft) rotating element connected with the body or frame) to stop the wheel's rotation or rotation of the trend. The following mainly introduces the disc brake working principle.
Working principle of disc brake
disc brake
Disk brake, also known as disc brake, the name suggests is to take the shape of its name.
Disc brake by hydraulic control, the main parts of the brake disc, sub pump, brake clamp, tubing, etc..
The brake disc is made of alloy steel and fixed on the wheel. The pump is fixed on the bottom plate of the brake.
Two friction plates on the brake caliper are respectively arranged on both sides of the brake disc. The piston of the pump by the tubing conveyed to the hydraulic pressure that pushes the friction plate pressure to the brake disc friction braking, act just like a vise pliers rotating plate, forcing it to stop.
The brake has the advantages of fast heat radiation, light weight, simple structure, convenient adjustment and the advantages of the device. Especially when the high temperature performance and high load, braking effect is stable and not afraid of mud invasion, driving in winter and bad road conditions, disc brake drum brake more easily within a short period of time so that the car stopped. Several small holes are also opened on the brake disc of the disc brake, and the speed of the ventilation and heat dissipation is improved.
