CP9665 6 Pot Brake Kit Original Caliper 390*36mm For 2015 NMW F80 M3
Braking System
1. Energy supply device: including various components that supply,
adjust the energy required for braking and improve the state of the
transmission medium
2. Control device: Various components that generate braking action
and control braking effect, such as brake pedal
3. Transmission: including the various components that transmit
braking energy to the brake, such as brake master cylinder, wheel
cylinder
4. Brakes: Components that create an impediment to the movement or
tendency of a vehicle to move
The braking system generally consists of two main parts: the
braking control mechanism and the brake.
The basic structure of a general brake system
·It is mainly composed of wheel brake, hydraulic transmission and
pneumatic transmission mechanism.
The wheel brake is mainly composed of a rotating part, a fixed part
and an adjustment mechanism. The rotating part is the brake drum;
the fixed part includes the brake shoe and the brake bottom plate;
the adjustment mechanism is composed of an eccentric support pin
and an adjustment cam for adjusting the clearance of the shoe drum.
·Hydraulic brake transmission mechanism is mainly composed of brake
pedal, push rod, brake master cylinder, brake wheel cylinder and
pipeline.
The pneumatic brake transmission mechanism is mainly composed of
brake pedal, push rod, brake master valve, air dryer, four-circuit
protection valve, brake air chamber and pipeline.
How the brake works
The general working principle of a braking system is to use the
mutual friction between the non-rotating elements attached to the
body (or frame) and the rotating elements attached to the wheels
(or driveshafts) to prevent the wheels from turning or tending to
turn.
1) When the brake system does not work
There is a gap between the shoe drums, and the wheels and brake
drums can rotate freely
2) When braking
To decelerate the car, step on the brake pedal through the push rod
and the master cylinder, so that the oil in the master cylinder
flows into the wheel cylinder under a certain pressure, and the
brake shoe is rotated around the support pin by the two wheel
cylinder pistons, and the upper end is separated to both sides And
its friction plate is pressed against the inner circular surface of
the brake drum. The non-rotating brake shoe produces a friction
torque on the rotating brake drum, thereby generating braking force
3) Release the brake
·When the brake pedal is released, the return position means that
the brake shoe is pulled back to its original position, and the
braking force disappears.
Structure and working process of brake master cylinder
The function of the brake master cylinder is to convert the
mechanical energy input from the outside into hydraulic energy, so
that the hydraulic energy is transmitted to the brake wheel
cylinder through the pipeline
·The brake master cylinder is divided into single-chamber and
dual-chamber types, which are respectively used for single-circuit
hydraulic brake system and double-circuit hydraulic brake system.
1. Single-chamber brake master cylinder
1) When the brake system does not work
When not braking, the master cylinder piston is located between the
compensation hole and the oil return hole
2) When braking, the piston moves to the left, the oil pressure
rises, and the wheel brakes
3) Release the brake
Remove the pedal force, the return spring acts, the piston returns,
the oil returns, and the brake is released
2. Dual-chamber brake master cylinder
1) Structure (such as the tandem dual-chamber brake master cylinder
in the dual-circuit hydraulic brake system of the FAW Audi 100
sedan)
·The master cylinder has two chambers
The first cavity is connected with the right front and left rear
brakes; the second cavity is connected with the left front and
right rear brakes
·Each line and working chamber communicate with the oil storage
tank through the compensation hole and the oil return hole
respectively. The second piston is kept in the correct initial
position by the right end spring, so that the compensation hole and
the oil inlet hole communicate with the cylinder. The first piston
is pressed against the sleeve under the action of the left end
spring, so that it is in the position between the compensation hole
and the oil return hole.
2) How it works
When braking, the first piston moves to the left and the oil
pressure rises, which overcomes the elastic force and sends the
brake fluid into the front right and left rear brake circuits; at
the same time, the second piston is pushed to increase the
hydraulic pressure in the second chamber, and the two-wheel brake
move
·When the brake is released, the piston returns to the position
under the action of the spring, and the hydraulic oil flows back to
the brake master cylinder from the wheel cylinder and the pipeline.
If the piston returns quickly, the volume of the working chamber
also expands rapidly, so that the oil pressure decreases rapidly.
The oil in the liquid storage tank can flow into the working
chamber through the oil inlet hole and the small hole above the
piston to push the sealing ring open. When the piston is fully
returned, the compensation hole is opened, and the excess oil in
the working chamber flows back to the liquid storage tank from the
compensation hole. If the hydraulic system is due to oil leakage
and the expansion or contraction of the oil in the main cylinder
working chamber, pipeline and wheel cylinder due to temperature
changes, it can be adjusted through the compensation hole.
Structure and working process of brake wheel cylinder
·The function of the brake wheel cylinder: It is to convert
hydraulic force into mechanical thrust. There are single piston and
double piston.
1) Structure
·The double-piston wheel cylinder of Audi 100 has two pistons and
two cups. The spring makes the cups, pistons and brake shoes in
close contact.
2) Working process
·When braking, hydraulic oil enters the oil cavity between the two
pistons, and then pushes the brake shoes to open to realize
braking.
·Bleeding bolts are provided on the wheel cylinder block to ensure
sensitive and reliable braking.
