Bicycle caliper
The disclosure provides a bicycle caliper including a casing assembly and a plurality of pistons. The casing assembly has a first fluid inlet, a second fluid inlet, a first fluid channel, a plurality of piston chambers, and a second fluid channel. The first fluid channel has a first connection opening and a second connection opening opposite to each other. The first connection opening and the second connection opening of the first fluid channel are respectively in fluid communication with the first fluid inlet and the second fluid inlet. The first fluid channel penetrates through the piston chambers. Two opposite openings of the second fluid channel are respectively in fluid communication with the first connection opening and the second connection opening of the first fluid channel, and the second fluid channel does not penetrate through the piston chambers. The pistons are respectively and movably disposed in the piston chambers.
Caliper brake
A caliper brake for braking a moving component, including a housing and two brake shoes, which are movable within the housing toward the component to be braked, and a bearing part, which is movable within the housing by an actuator. The brake shoes each have a wedge surface on a side facing away from the component to be braked, by which a braking force acting on the bearing part is transmitted to the brake shoes with deflection and force multiplication. For higher braking forces using a spring-actuated brake, and to reduce the effects of spring travel on the braking force, the bearing part has offset bearing locations against which the wedge surfaces of each brake shoe bear. The wedge surfaces each have, in the region of the bearing locations, a step which is overcome during a closing movement of the brake shoes before they engage the component to be braked.
SPRING, SPRING ASSEMBLY AND BRAKE PAD, CALIPER BODY ASSEMBLY
A spring for a caliper body where the spring may be shaped to be arranged straddling a brake disc for applying an elastic action on at least one brake pad to bias it away from said brake disc. The spring may have a first thrust portion and a second thrust portion adapted to apply an elastic action on at least one brake pad, biasing the brake pad at least away from the brake disc. The spring may also have a first coupling portion adapted to couple the spring with a first side bridge. The spring may also have a second coupling portion adapted to couple the spring with the second side bridge on a tangentially opposite part with respect to the first coupling portion. The spring may also have a backing portion. The spring may also have at least one concave spring portion.
BRAKE APPARATUS FOR VEHICLE
A brake apparatus for a vehicle may include: a caliper body module provided with a finger part and a cylinder part spaced apart from each other and facing each other, a pad plate part disposed between the finger part and the cylinder part, and configured to selectively come into contact with a disk module rotated together with a rotor to generate a braking force, a piston module installed in the cylinder part to be movable forward and backward and configured to press the pad plate part, a guide member disposed on both sides of the caliper body module and configured to movably support the caliper body module, and a first fastening member extending from the guide member and fastened to a first mounting member provided in a stator.
DISK BRAKE AND SHELL ASSEMBLY FOR PRESSURE TRANSMISSION IN A BRAKE APPLICATION DEVICE OF A DISK BRAKE
Disk brake including a brake caliper and an application device arranged therein for applying force to the brake pads of the disk brake, wherein a component of the application device is a brake lever which can be actuated by a force element and preferably by a pressure cylinder and is composed of a lever arm against which the force element is supported and an application shaft. The application shaft is supported, on one side, against a pressure piece operating in the direction of the brake pads and, on the other side, with the interposition of a shell, against a channel arranged on the inside of the brake caliper, wherein the curvature of the shell is complementary to the curvature of the channel. In order to develop the disk brake and the shell assembly by constructive measures so as to prevent the shell assembly from moving out of the original position even in the case of long-term use and under frequent load caused by braking, an opening of a bore is located in the channel.
Rear wheel braking device for motorcycle
To provide a rear wheel braking device for a motorcycle that can reduce an unsprung mass and the number of pieces of components on the rear wheel side of a shaft drive type motorcycle. In a rear wheel braking device for a motorcycle transmitting a drive force of a power unit of a motorcycle to a rear wheel through a drive shaft that extends in a vehicle longitudinal direction, the drive shaft includes a propeller shaft that is connected to a rear end of an output shaft through a universal joint, the output shaft protruding to the vehicle body rear side from a case member of the power unit. A brake disk is attached to the output shaft, the brake disk being braked by a rear wheel brake caliper. The rear wheel brake caliper is fixed to a bracket that is arranged in the case member, and is disposed on the vehicle body upper side of the brake disk.
Disc brake assembly having a sensor assembly
A disc brake assembly that includes a brake caliper, a retainer strap, and a sensor assembly. The retainer strap is mounted to the brake caliper and extends across a brake pad assembly. The sensor assembly is mounted to the retainer strap and generates a signal indicative of a position of the brake pad assembly.
Disc brake system
A brake system that includes a brake caliper comprising an inboard side and an outboard side, the inboard side of the brake caliper includes one or more brake pistons and the outboard side of the brake caliper comprises one or more brake pistons, and a brake pad comprising a first pad section and a second pad section. During a service brake apply, both of the first pad section and the second pad section are moved against a braking surface to create a clamping force. During a parking brake apply, only one of the first pad section and the second pad section is moved against the braking surface to create a clamping force. The first pad section comprises a friction material having a coefficient of friction that is different than a coefficient of friction of the second pad section.
Lock nut
A longitudinal end of the nut has: at least one blocking face forming a means for blocking a rotation of the nut along a longitudinal axis of the nut, and at least one transmission face forming a means for transmitting a force directed along the axis. The blocking face or at least one of the blocking faces and the transmission face or at least one of the transmission faces have at least one common edge, and the blocking face or at least one of the blocking faces is concave.
Guide assembly for a disc brake
A guide assembly for a disc brake, the guide assembly comprising a bore disposed in a disc brake caliper for receiving a guide pin. The bore comprises a first bore portion with a substantially circular cross-sectional profile and a second bore portion with a substantially circular cross-sectional profile arranged sequentially along the length of the bore and tangentially offset such that the bore is defined by the overlap of the first bore portion and second bore portion and has a lens-shaped cross-sectional profile.
