Description

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0032] FIG. 1 is a front view of a carrier disk assembly.

[0033] FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of the carrier disk assembly.

[0034] FIG. 3 is an associated rear view of the carrier disk assembly.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0035] As illustrated in the Figures, the carrier disk assembly has a steel hub 1, which is provided with an inner tooth system 4 and axially uninterrupted threaded bores for screws 3.

[0036] Two disks 3, which rest against each other and are coaxially arranged relative to each other, are connected to steel hub 1 with the aid of screws 3.

[0037] Axially directed screws 3 are screwed into the threaded bores and partially project from steel hub 1.

[0038] Disks 2 are, for example, made of aluminum.

[0039] Disks 2 have a hollow-cylindrical configuration, and the axial direction is aligned in parallel with the cylinder axis of this respective hollow-cylindrical region.

[0040] The outer sides of the disks are processed by a laser so that they include depressions. The carrier disk assembly therefore has a surface region that is processed by a laser on its axial front side and rear side.

[0041] The surface region situated on the front side on a first one of disks 2 is, for example, an annular ring.

[0042] The surface region situated on the rear side on the other disk 2 is, for example, also an annular ring.

[0043] In this manner, friction linings are able to be connected to disks 2 with the aid of an adhesive bond, the processed surface regions bringing about a particularly satisfactory adhesion of the adhesive bond, in particular the glue. With the aid of the depressions, the glue has a better connection than in a surface region without depressions.

[0044] The depressions are arranged in the shape of points because a laser pulse is directed toward, and acts on, the center point of each depression during the processing. Each depression therefore has a rotational symmetry with respect to its center axis.

[0045] A first of disks 2 has a coding 5, which is applied with the aid of the laser on the surface of disk 2. The laser processing as a single processing step thus creates not only the surface region made coarser by the depressions but also the region provided with coding 5.

[0046] Coding 5, for example, includes type sign data.

[0047] For example, coding 5 is provided in a radial distance range that is radially set apart from the particular radial distance range covered by the surface region processed by the laser.

[0048] For example, the depressions are set apart from one another at regular intervals in the circumferential direction. During braking, the friction linings bonded to the disks therefore generate a substantially constant braking torque. In the same manner, even spacing in the radial direction is, for example, provided.

[0049] As described, the friction linings are adhesively bonded to disks 2, which are produced from aluminum. Since disks 2 are screw-fitted with steel hub 1 provided with an inner tooth system with the aid of screws 3, the thereby formed brake pad carrier is able to be placed onto a shaft provided with a corresponding outer tooth system. The inner tooth system and the outer tooth system thus engage with each other and the shaft is connected to the brake pad carrier in a keyed manner in the circumferential direction. In the axial direction, i.e., in the direction of the axis of rotation of the shaft, the brake pad carrier is situated on the shaft in a displaceable manner.

[0050] The shaft is rotatably mounted in a housing part with the aid of a bearing. The housing part is connected to a magnet holder in a torsionally fixed manner, in particular with the aid of axially directed and positioned pins.

[0051] The magnet holder is produced from a ferromagnetic material such as cast steel, and on its side facing the brake pad carrier it has an annular groove in which an annular coil is accommodated, in particular a brake coil. This annular coil is, for example, surrounded, especially retained, in the annular groove by casting compound.

[0052] Situated axially between the brake pad carrier and the annular coil is an armature plate, which is connected to the magnet holder in a torsionally fixed manner and disposed so as to allow for an axial movement. Toward this end, the pins are guided through axially uninterrupted recesses in the armature plate. The pins are partially inserted into axially directed bores of the magnet holder.

[0053] A spring element supported on the magnet holder presses the armature plate against a first friction lining of the brake pad support, in particular, when the annular coil is not energized, the brake pad support being pressed by its second friction lining against a brake surface arranged on a housing part. This friction lining is situated on the side of the brake pad carrier axially facing the armature plate. When the annular coil is energized, on the other hand, the armature plate is pulled toward the annular coil, and the armature disk overcomes the spring force.

[0054] In additional exemplary embodiments, the outer tooth system is not directly worked into the outer circumference of the shaft but is arranged as a toothing of a tooth system part, in particular, a slip pinion, and the shaft is connected to the tooth system part in a torsionally fixed manner, in particular, by a feather key connection.

[0055] In the event of a power loss, the brake assembly is applied, and when the annular coil is energized, lifting of the brake is induced.

[0056] This brake assembly having the brake pad carrier is able to be provided in or on an electric motor. The shaft is connected to the rotor shaft of the electric motor in a torsionally fixed manner or produced as one piece, i.e., in an integral fashion.

[0057] In further exemplary embodiments, the two disks do not have direct contact but are set apart via an axially interposed damping device. Its wall thickness is, for example, smaller than the wall thickness of each of the two disks. An embossed sheet metal, a plastic part or paper, in particular NOMEX paper, may be used as the damping device.

[0058] In additional exemplary embodiments, the depressions, in particular the depressions situated at the same radial distance, are not spaced apart from one another at regular intervals in the circumferential direction. This reduces the oscillation tendency of the overall system with the carrier disk assembly during braking because multiple frequencies that have a smaller amplitude occur rather than a single oscillating-exciting frequency. Even if the total system were to have a risk-prone resonant frequency, not enough energy to induce dangerously strong amplitudes of the resonant oscillation is thus introduced into the associated excitation frequency. The noise emission is therefore also able to be reduced.

[0059] In further exemplary embodiments, oval depressions instead of the punctiform depressions are produced by the laser, the oval depressions having a radial orientation, i.e., extending farther in the radial direction than in the circumferential direction. Punctiform depressions are, for example, also disposed in a radial distance range situated radially within the radial distance range also covered by the oval depressions.

[0060] The adhesion is therefore improved even under the action of brake forces.

[0061] In further exemplary embodiments, radially directed scores or grooves are produced with the aid of the laser. Present in addition are punctiform depressions, in particular in the radially outer region of the respective surface region.

[0062] In further exemplary embodiments, the depressions are not circular or oval but kidney-shaped, square or rectangular. This makes it possible to achieve an even better adhesion as a function of the material of the friction lining and the adhesive agent situated between the friction lining and the disk.

[0063] In further exemplary embodiments, the depressions have the form of a cross or double cross, the cross or crosses in particular being non-rectangular.
