20210372486 · 2021-12-02 ·

A clutch includes balls, an axle, a socket and a cylinder. The axle includes a circular section formed with alternate cavities and ridges. The socket includes a circular bore for receiving the circular section of the axle and apertures for receiving the balls. The cylinder includes an annular recess made in an internal face. The socket is movable in the cylinder between two positions. When the socket is the first position, the internal face of the cylinder abuts the external portions of balls to engage the internal portions of the balls with the ridges to cause the axle to rotate the socket via the balls. When the socket is in the second position, the annular recess receives the external portions of the balls to allow disengagement of the internal portions of balls from the ridges to allow the axle to rotate relative to the socket.

20220025946 · 2022-01-27 ·

Disclosed is a caliper brake including a carrier on which a pair of pad plates are installed to advance and retreat, a caliper housing slidably installed on the carrier and provided with a cylinder, a piston installed in the cylinder and provided to advance and retreat toward the pad plates by braking hydraulic pressure, a seal groove formed to be annularly recessed into an inner surface of the cylinder, and a ring-shaped seal member in close contact with an outer surface of the piston and accommodated in the seal groove, wherein the seal groove includes a bottom surface with which an outer circumferential surface of the seal member is in close contact, a first surface facing a front surface of the seal member, a second surface facing a rear surface of the seal member, and a bent surface in contact with the bottom surface and the second surface and provided in an arc shape.

CALIPER SEAL STRUCTURE

In caliper seal structure, region on one side of caliper main body in axial direction of cylinder with respect to piston seal is set as fluid pressure side where fluid pressure is received, region on other side of caliper main body in axial direction of cylinder with respect to piston seal is set as atmospheric side that opens to atmosphere, and groove forming portion includes holding portion that sets groove width of seal groove in axial direction as first groove width and that is configured to hold piston seal by making inner side surfaces of seal groove in axial direction contact with outer side surfaces of piston seal in axial direction, respectively, and enlarged portion that sets groove width of seal groove in axial direction as second groove width which is increased to one side in axial direction so as to be greater than first groove width.

Anti-drag structure of automobile brake calipers

The present invention relates to an anti-drag structure of automobile brake calipers, comprising a brake caliper body which is provided with a cylinder bore and a brake claw arranged along the axis of the cylinder bore in an extending mode; and a cylindrical piston bush is pressed in the cylinder bore by interference fit, a step ring groove is formed in the inner wall of the piston bush and composed of a major diameter ring groove and a minor diameter ring groove which have rectangular sections. The present invention can improve the generality of the brake caliper body through the arrangement of the piston bush and improve the standardization of production manufacturing of brake calipers, and can reduce the residual drag moment of the brake caliper and the fuel consumption with the rubber seal ring and the phenolic resin PF ring to achieve the purpose of emission reduction.

Conducting element, hybrid module and drive assembly

A conducting element for conducting a pressurized fluid and for conducting a cooling fluid, as well as a hybrid module and a drive assembly having a hybrid module are provided.
