DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

(7) The embodiments of the present application are illustrated below by using the specific embodiments, and those skilled in the art would have readily understood other advantages and effects of the present application from the disclosure of this specification, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are some of the embodiments of the present application rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present application without creative efforts fall within the protection scope of the present application.

(8) As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, an embodiment of the present application provides a heat-dissipating car caliper cover, the car caliper cover comprising a cover body 100 and a fixing member for fixing the cover body 100 to a car caliper, wherein a first arc-shaped side plate 140 is provided on an outer side of the cover body 100, a second arc-shaped side plate 160 is provided on an inner side of the cover body 100, the fixing member is provided on the first arc-shaped side plate 140, a heat transmission assembly 130 is provided on the first arc-shaped side plate 140, and the heat transmission assembly 130 comprises an elastic pressing sheet 132 and a silicone sheet provided on the elastic pressing sheet 132; and when the cover body 100 is fixed to the car caliper, the elastic pressing sheet 132 can contact the silicone sheet with a pump body outer side wall of the car caliper, and conducts heat to the cover body 100 for heat dissipation. The elastic pressing sheet 132 is hinged to the first arc-shaped side plate 140, and a spring clip 131 is provided between the elastic pressing sheet 132 and the first arc-shaped side plate 140. Specifically, the elastic pressing sheet 132 is combined with a heat transmission silicone sheet, and the temperature of a piston pump body of the caliper is higher during brake and also requires heat dissipation. In an embodiment of the present invention, through the combination of the elastic pressing sheet 132 and the heat transmission silicone sheet, the caliper cover body 100 is connected to the piston pump body of the caliper, and the high temperature generated by the piston pump body can be quickly transmitted to the caliper cover body 100 through the heat transmission assembly, such that the heat is effectively dissipated, thereby reducing the temperature of the brake caliper. In the heat transmission assembly 130, the heat transmission silicone sheet is combined with the elastic pressing sheet 132, and heat transmission silicone can fill a gap and fully contact with a heating part of the piston pump body. The spring clip 131 is used to ensure pressure required for the connection between the elastic pressing sheet 132 and the car caliper pump body, and when the piston pump body of the car caliper moves slightly due to wear of the brake pads, good pressure and connection performance of the elastic pressing sheet 132 can be maintained, thereby ensuring the continuity and effectiveness of heat dissipation of the car caliper. At the same time, since the cover body 100, the fixing member and the elastic pressing sheet 132 are all made of an aluminum alloy material, the entire car caliper cover has a good heat dissipation performance.

(9) Wherein the fixing member comprises a first fixing member 110 and a second fixing member 120, which are respectively mounted on two sides of the first arc-shaped side plate 140; and the first fixing member 110 comprises a connection bracket 114a, a first bent portion 111 fixedly connected to the connection bracket 114a and a second bent porn on 112 cooperating with the first bent portion 111 and fixing the connection bracket 114a to the car caliper. The second fixing member 120 comprises a connection bracket 114b and a fixing buckle 121 fixedly connected to the connection bracket 114b, the fixing buckle 121 being used for fixing the connection bracket 114b to the car caliper. The first bent portion 111 and the second bent portion 112 are fixedly connected by a bolt. Specifically, the connection bracket 114a/114b is a 2 mm 6061T6 high-strength aluminum alloy plate. The connection bracket 114a/114b has at least one bent portion. Preferably, the connection bracket 114a/114b has two bent portions to enhance the strength of the connection bracket 114a/114b and facilitate joint installation of the connection bracket 114a/114b, and at the same time the heat conducted to the cover body 100 can be dissipated. The first bent portion 111 and the second bent portion 112 are both made of a high-strength stainless steel spring sheet, and the hardness of the spring sheet reaches 400. By the design of the first bent portion 111 and the second bent portion 112, the fastening strength of the fixing member is greatly improved, and the car caliper cover can be firmly mounted on the car caliper.

(10) In an embodiment of the present application, the first fixing member 110 and the second fixing member 120 are provided on the two sides of the first arc-shaped side plate 140, and fixing devices of the two fixing members are different. The first bent portion 111 is fixed to a three-dimensional folded edge provided on the connection bracket 114a by two stainless steel semi-hollow rivets, and the three-dimensional folded edge is provided with a hole for a screw to pass through to fix a hexagon socket head cap screw 113. The second bent portion 112 has a three-dimensional folded edge, which increases the strength of the second bent portion 112, the three-dimensional folded edge is provided with a hole for a screw to pass through to cooperate with the hole of the first bent portion 111, and the hexagon socket head cap screw 113 is used for connection and fixation. The device is simple in structure, firm in fixation, and fast in installation, the caliper cover can be firmly fixed to the caliper only by the hexagon socket head cap screw 113 and a nut, and the problem of deformation and shaking of the caliper cover is minimized. The fixing buckle 121 of the second fixing member 120 is fixed to the connection bracket 114b via two stainless steel semi-hollow rivets, and the connection bracket catches a gap between brake discs of a caliper bracket by the folded edge. The caliper cover is fixed by the first fixing member 110 and the second fixing member 120, and is then fastened by the stainless steel screw 113 and a lock-nut, thus the caliper cover is more safe and reliable, and assembly and disassembly thereof are convenient and cost less time. Since the cover body 100 is entirely made of an aluminum alloy material, and is fixedly connected to the caliper through an aluminum alloy custom connection bracket 114b above the caliper cover, the heat of the caliper can be dissipated through the aluminum alloy caliper cover with a good heat dissipation function.

(11) The surface of the cover body 100 of the embodiment of the present application is coated with a layer of electrostatic powder coating, which has excellent UV and salt mist resistance and corrosion resistance, especially for brake dust, and is particularly convenient in cleaning without discoloration.

(12) As shown in FIG. 3, an expansion insert 150 is fixedly connected to the cover body 100 near the second arc-shaped side plate 160. The expansion insert 150 can be designed according to the shape and size of the caliper. By replacing different expansion inserts 150, car calipers of different specifications can be met. The expansion insert 150 can be connected to the cover body 100 in a fixed connection method such as welding, and has a special design for an accommodation space. On the premise of ensuring a three-dimensional effect of the appearance of the cover, the cover has a large accommodation space, which increases mold universality, reduces mold input, and reduces the manufacturing cost of the caliper.

(13) Although the present application has been described in detail above with the general description and particular embodiments, on the basis of the present application, some modifications or improvements can be made thereto, which would have been obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, these modifications or improvements made without departing from the spirit of the present application all fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
