Abstract

The brake carrier (2) with two integral cylinders (1) is cast from lamellar graphite cast iron. This material has the advantages of cheapness, freedom from porosity, good castability, free machining and good damping characteristics. Since its tensile strength is poor, a steel tie-rod (3) is cast in position with each end of the tie-rod embedded in the bosses (4) which are formed on the sides of the cylinders (1). To ensure a good bond between the seal and cast iron, the ends of the tie-rod (3) have notches or projections. The bending moments exerted by the operation of the brake are resisted by the tie-rod (4) without over-stressing the cast iron.

Description

Gegossener Bremsträger für den Schwimmsattel einer Scheibenbremse Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen Bremsträger für einen Schwimmsattel, der aus zwei parallel angeordneten, durch einen bogenförmigen Steg miteinander verbundenen Zylindern besteht. Solche Bremsträger werden bei Scheibenbremsen in Kraftfahrzeugen eingesetzt. Cast brake carrier for the floating caliper of a disc brake The invention relates to a brake carrier for a floating caliper, which consists of two arranged in parallel and connected to one another by an arched web Cylinders. Such brake carriers are used in disc brakes in motor vehicles used.

Der bogenförmige Verbindungssteg zwischen den Zylindern wird während des Bremsvorganges sehr stark auf Biegung beansprucht. Damit das Gußstück dieser hohen Belastung gewachsen ist, ist es zur Zeit üblich, ein Gußeisen mit besonderer Festigkeit zu verwenden. Als Werkstoff kommt vor allem Gußeisen mit Kugelgrafit in der Qualität des GGG 70 in Frage.The arched connecting web between the cylinders is during the braking process is very stressed on bending. So that the casting of this is able to withstand high loads, it is currently customary to use a cast iron with special Strength to use. The main material used is cast iron with nodular graphite in the quality of the GGG 70 in question.

Ein Gußeisen mit Lamellengrafit wäre den Belastungen, insbesondere bezüglich der Dauerfestigkeit, nicht gewachsen.A cast iron with flake graphite would cope with the stresses, in particular in terms of fatigue strength, not grown.

Die hohen Festigkeitswerte werden nur für den Verbindungssteg gefordert. Die anderen Teile des Bremsträgers könnten auch aus einem Werkstoff mit geringerer Festigkeit, etwa aus Gußeisen mit Lamellengrafit bestehen. Die Verwendung dieses Werkstoffes würde sogar einige wesentliche Vorteile ergeben.The high strength values are only required for the connecting web. The other parts of the brake carrier could also be made of a material with a lower Strength, for example made of cast iron with lamellar graphite. Using this Material would even result in some significant advantages.

Neben dem geringeren Preis sind besonders die geringere Lunkerneigung, die hdhere Formgenauigkeit im Gußzustand, die bessere Bearbeitbarkeit und die günstigeren Dämpfungseigenschaften dieses Werkstoffes zu nennen. Es sollte deshalb ein Weg gefunden werden, den Bremsträger aus einem Werkstoff mit geringerer Festigkeit, insbesondere einem Gußeisen mit Lamellengrafit herzustellen und dennoch den Bruch des Verbindungssteges zwischen den Zylindern zu verhindern.In addition to the lower price, the lower tendency to shrink holes, the higher dimensional accuracy in the as-cast state, the better machinability and the cheaper Mention the damping properties of this material. A way should therefore be found be, the brake carrier made of one material with lower strength, in particular to produce a cast iron with lamellar graphite and still break to prevent the connecting web between the cylinders.

Zu diesem Zweck würde es sich anbieten, den Verbindungssteg zu verstärken, was jedoch zu keinem befriedigenden Ergebnis führt. Eine Vergrößerung des Widerstandsmomentes und somit eine Verringerung der Bruchneigung ist hierdurch nicht zu erzielen. Das Angießen eines zusätzlichen Quersteges zwischen den Zylindern auf einer anderen Ebene als der des vorhandenen Verbindungssteges würde zu einer etwas größeren Stabilität führen. Da der Quersteg aber das Einfügen eines Kernes in die Form erforderlich macht, ist diese Lösung recht aufwendig und teuer. Zur Aufnahme der auftretenden Zugkräfte muß der Quersteg zudem weiterhin aus einem Werkstoff in der Qualität des GGG oder GTS bestehen.For this purpose it would be advisable to strengthen the connecting bridge, however, this does not lead to a satisfactory result. An increase in the moment of resistance and thus a reduction in the tendency to break cannot be achieved in this way. That Casting on an additional crossbar between the cylinders on top of another Level than that of the existing connecting web would result in a somewhat greater stability to lead. Since the crosspiece, however, the insertion of a core into the mold is necessary makes this solution quite complex and expensive. To accommodate the occurring Tensile forces must also continue to be made of a material in the quality of the crossbar GGG or GTS exist.

Damit der Bremsträger in gewünschter Weise aus Gußeisen mit Lamellengrafit hergestellt werden kann, wird gemäß der Erfindung ein zusätzlicher Zuganker aus Stahl zwischen den Zylindern angeordnet. Dieser Zuganker, der als Stahlstab oder als Blechstreifen ausgebildet sein kann, übernimmt die während des Bremsvorganges auftretenden Zugkräfte im Bereich der Zylinder und entlastet den Verbindungssteg.So that the brake carrier is made of cast iron with lamellar graphite in the desired manner can be produced, an additional tie rod is made according to the invention Steel arranged between the cylinders. This tie rod, which is available as a steel rod or can be designed as a sheet metal strip, takes over during the braking process occurring tensile forces in the area of the cylinder and relieves the connecting web.

Der Zuganker kann ohne Schwierigkeiten nach dem an sich bekannten Verbundgußverfahren mit dem Bremsträger zu einer Einheit verbunden werden. Zu diesem Zweck wird er derart in die Gießform eingefügt, daß seine beiden Enden in die Formhohlräume der beiden Zylinder hineinragen. Je nach dem, auf welcher Ebene der Zuganker liegen soll, ist eine Verballung der Formhälften vorzunehmen. Separate Kerne sind nicht erforderlich.The tie rod can without difficulty according to what is known per se Composite casting process are connected to the brake carrier to form a unit. To this Purpose it is inserted into the mold in such a way that its two ends in the mold cavities of the two cylinders protrude. Depending on the level on which the tie rods are located the mold halves are to be clenched together. Separate cores are not necessary.

Besondere Vorsprünge an den Zylindern führen dazu, daß die Enden des Zugankers einwandfrei mit dem sie umgebenden Gußeisen verbunden werden. Der Stahl des Zugankers dringt auf diese Weise nicht bei in den Bohrungsbereich der Zylinder vor. Rillen, Kerben oder Bohrungen an den Enden des Zugankers verbessern die Verbindung mit dem Gußeisen.Special protrusions on the cylinders mean that the ends of the Tie rods are properly connected to the surrounding cast iron. The Steel the tie rod does not penetrate into the bore area of the cylinder in this way before. Grooves, notches or holes at the ends of the tie rod improve the connection with the cast iron.

Der Bremsträger nach der Erfindung besitzt alle bereits geschilderten Vorzüge des Gußeisens mit Lamellengrafit. Da jetzt der Zuganker aus Stahl die auftretenden Zugkräfte abfängt, ist sogar eine Querschnittsverminderung des Verbindungssteges und somit eine Gewichtsverringerung des Bremsträgers möglich. Die Anwendung des erfindungsgemäßen Zugankers besitzt deshalb auch bei Verwendung des hochwertigen GGG Vorzüge, sodaß die Erfindung nicht nur auf Bremsträger aus Gußeisen mit Lamellengrafit beschränkt ist.The brake carrier according to the invention has all of those already described Advantages of cast iron with lamellar graphite. Since now the steel tie rod is the occurring Intercepting tensile forces is even a reduction in the cross section of the connecting web and thus a weight reduction of the brake carrier is possible. The application of the The tie rod according to the invention therefore also has when using the high-quality GGG advantages, so that the invention not only applies to brake carriers made of cast iron with lamellar graphite is limited.

Die beigefügte Zeichnung stellt ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung dar.The accompanying drawing shows an embodiment of the invention represent.

Es zeigt: Fig. 1: Den Bremsträger in der Vorderansicht und Fig. 2: Den Bremsträger in der Draufsicht.It shows: Fig. 1: The brake carrier in the front view and Fig. 2: The brake carrier in the plan view.

Die beiden Zylinder 1 sind durch den bogenförmigen Steg 2 verbunden. Damit der auf Biegung beanspruchte Steg auch aus dem für die Zylinder günstigen Gußeisen mit geringerer Festigkeit bestehen kann, ist zwischen den Zylindern 1 noch der Zuganker 3 aus Stahl eingefügt. Der Zuganker 3 ist mit seinen beiden Enden in Vorsprünge 4 an den Zylindern 1 eingegossen.The two cylinders 1 are connected by the arched web 2. So that the web stressed in bending also from the one that is favorable for the cylinder Cast iron with lower strength can exist, is between the cylinders 1 still the tie rod 3 made of steel is inserted. The tie rod 3 is at both ends in Projections 4 cast on the cylinders 1.
