Disc brake working principle and classification
The disc brake consists of a brake disc attached to the wheel and a brake caliper at the edge of the disc. When braking, the high-pressure brake oil pushes the brake block to clamp the brake disc to produce a braking effect. The working principle of the disc brake can be described by a dish. When you hold the rotating disc with your thumb and forefinger, the disc will stop rotating.
(Disc brake structure)
Disc brakes are sometimes called disc brakes. They are divided into two types: ordinary disc brakes and ventilated disc brakes. Ventilation disc brakes are used to drill a number of circular vents on the disc surface, or to cut out ventilation slots or pre-formed rectangular vents on the end faces of the discs. The ventilated disc brakes use the wind flow effect, and the cooling effect is better than the ordinary disc brakes.
How the disc brakes (disc brakes) work:
As the name suggests, the disc brakes use a static brake disc to clamp the brake disc that rotates with the tire to generate friction and reduce the rotational speed of the wheel.
When the brake pedal is depressed, the piston in the master cylinder is pushed and pressure builds up in the brake circuit. The pressure is transmitted to the piston of the brake cylinder on the brake caliper via the brake oil. After the piston of the brake cylinder is under pressure, it will move outward and push the brake pad to clamp the brake disc, causing the brake pad to rub against the brake disc. Reduce the wheel speed so that the car can slow down or stop.
(The disc brake disc brakes by friction between the brake pad and the brake disc)
As the performance and driving speed of the vehicle are constantly increasing, in order to increase the stability of the brakes of the vehicle at high speed, the disc brake has become the mainstream of the current braking system. Since the brake disc of the disc brake is exposed to the air, the disc brake has excellent heat dissipation. When the vehicle is braked at a high speed or braked for a short time, the performance of the brake is less likely to be degraded, and the vehicle can be obtained. Better braking effect to improve the safety of the vehicle.
(Many models use disc brakes with ABS system and VSC, TCS and other systems.)
And because the disc brakes react quickly and have the ability to do high-frequency brakes, many models use disc brakes with ABS systems and VSC, TCS and other systems to meet the needs of such systems requiring fast operation.
