Disc Brake

View page
US Patent:
6533079, Mar 18, 2003
Filed:
Jul 19, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/909081
Inventors:
Djamel Charmat - South Bend IN
Assignee:
Robert Bosch Corporation - Broadview IL
International Classification:
F16D 5500
US Classification:
188 7331, 188 718, 188 7344
Abstract:
A guide pin ( ) for caliper ( ) of a disc brake assembly ( ) having a first cylindrical body ( ) having a first head ( ) thereon secured to a second cylindrical body ( ) having a second head ( ) on a first end and a threaded section ( ) that extends from a shoulder ( ) to a second end. A resilient washer ( ) is located between the second head ( ) and an ear ( ) on an actuation section ( ) of the caliper ( ). The threaded section ( ) on the second end engages the first head ( ) to bring the shoulder ( ) into engagement with the first head ( ) to secure the second cylindrical body ( ) with the first cylindrical body ( ) while compressing the resilient washer ( ) between the second head ( ) and the ear ( ) to urge the first head ( ) toward the ear ( ) and the second head ( ) away from the ear ( ) such that an actuation force must first overcome a spring force of the resilient washer ( ) before sliding movement of the caliper ( ) occurs to effect a brake application and in that the spring force moves a friction member ( ) out of engagement with a rotor ( ) to a rest position on termination of a brake application.

US Patent:
6609594, Aug 26, 2003
Filed:
Oct 11, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/975176
Inventors:
Djamel Charmat - South Bend IN
Brian Roach - South Bend IN
Assignee:
Robert Bosch Corporation - Broadview IL
International Classification:
F16D 6514
US Classification:
188 7345, 188 7337
Abstract:
Guide pins for retaining a caliper in an anchor of a disc brake assembly. The guide pins are characterized by a cylindrical body having a first end and a second end with a first diameter section that extends from the first end separated by a shoulder from a second diameter section that extends from the second end. The cylindrical body has a threaded axial bore that extends from a face on the second end toward the first end. A bolt has a shaft with threads thereon which mate with the threaded axial bore in the cylindrical body. A bushing is concentrically located on the shaft and in a corresponding axial opening in an ear that extends from the anchor. Torque applied to the bolt acts on and brings the bushing into engagement with the face on the second end of the cylindrical body however as the bushing has a greater length than the width of the axial opening of the ear, a desired gap is developed between a head on the bolt, the second end and the ear. Because of the gap, the bolt may freely rotated in the axial opening when the torque is terminated to realign the cylindrical body in a bore in the support member and as a result axial movement of the caliper is not substantially inhibited during a brake application.

Thermo Clip In An Adjustor Mechanism For A Drum Brake

View page
US Patent:
7270220, Sep 18, 2007
Filed:
Oct 14, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/163334
Inventors:
Djamel Charmat - South Bend IN, US
Assignee:
Robert Bosch, GmbH - Stuttgart
International Classification:
F16D 51/00
US Classification:
188 7952, 188 7956
Abstract:
An adjuster arrangement for maintaining first and second brake shoes of a brake between a minimum and a maximum clearance with respect to a drum. The adjuster arrangement has a pawl located on a pivot pin on the first brake shoe and an arm that engages a star wheel of an expandable strut. A first leg of a thermo clip is held against the first brake shoe by the pivot pin and receives thermal energy generated during a brake application. During a brake application, the pawl pivots on the pin and imparts a rotary torque to the star wheel to expand the strut to create a maximum clearance while at the same time a predetermined temperature generated during a brake application acts on the thermo clip to moves the pawl out of engagement with the star wheel to prevent rotating the star wheel and thereby sustain a minimum clearance.

Drum Brake

View page
US Patent:
7472776, Jan 6, 2009
Filed:
May 12, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/382982
Inventors:
Djamel Charmat - South Bend IN, US
Assignee:
Robert Bosch GmbH - Stuttgart
International Classification:
F16D 51/14
F16D 65/56
US Classification:
188 7955, 188 7962, 188 7964, 188196 BA
Abstract:
An actuator for a drum brake including a plunger connected through a resilient member to a linkage attached to a web on a brake shoe. A rod extends from the plunger and engages a lever arm that is pivotally retained on the web. The lever engages an extendable strut of an adjuster arrangement through which a running clearance is maintained between the brake shoe and a drum. During a brake application, pressurization fluid acts on the plunger to develop an operational force that is communicated through the resilient member to move the brake shoe into engagement with a drum. Should the operational force overcome the resilient member, the plunger moves toward the linkage and a reactive force is applied through the rod that acts through the lever arm to prevent a pawl from rotating such that a current length of the strut and correspondingly a current running clearance is sustained.

US Patent:
7637361, Dec 29, 2009
Filed:
Sep 30, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/241155
Inventors:
Djamel Charmat - South Bend IN, US
Stefan U. Anger - Oxford MI, US
Assignee:
Robert Bosch GmbH - Stuttgart
International Classification:
F16D 51/00
US Classification:
188341, 188 78, 188325, 188328
Abstract:
A one-piece sheet metal combination retainer and anchor for use in a non-servo floating shoe drum brake assembly () having a pair of laterally extending ears () for axially retaining respective ends () of a pair of brake shoes (), and a pair of rivet head reinforceable axially extending portions () for anchoring the brake shoe ends during brake application. A base portion () has one or more rivet () or shaft () receiving apertures with the each of the axially extending portions abutted by a rivet head flat surface (). The base portion has a transversely extending central region () to provide, in conjunction with a brake assembly backing plate (), a parking brake cable () retaining clamp.

Anchor Arrangement For Retaining A Sensor In A Drum Brake

US Patent:
59796138, Nov 9, 1999
Filed:
Jan 26, 1998
Appl. No.:
9/013336
Inventors:
Kenneth Scott Towers - Granger IN
Djamel Charmat - South Bend IN
Georg Blosch - Murr, DE
Assignee:
Robert Bosch Technology Corporation - Broadview IL
International Classification:
B60T 872
US Classification:
188181T
Abstract:
A drum brake for use in a brake system (10) having first (14) and second (16) shoes retained on a backing plate (20). The first brake shoe (14) has a first end (22) connected to an actuator (12) and a second end (26) connected to an anchor arrangement (24) and the second brake shoe (16) has a first end (36) connected to the actuator (12) and a second end (38) connected to the anchor arrangement (24) The actuator (12) responds to an input signal during a brake application by moving the first (14) and second (16) brake shoes into engagement with a drum (18). The anchor arrangement (24) includes a load sensor (64) for measuring a torque generated between the first (14) and second (16) brake shoes and the drum (18). The anchor arrangement (24) has a bracket (44) with a base (46) having first (48) and second (50) side walls which are secured to the backing plate (20). The first side wall (48) has a first central opening (56) therein while the second side wall (50) has a second central opening (58) therein.

Drum Brake With Cam Operated Parking Brake Lever

View page
US Patent:
53600860, Nov 1, 1994
Filed:
Dec 7, 1993
Appl. No.:
8/163019
Inventors:
Djamel Charmat - South Bend IN
Assignee:
AlliedSignal Inc. - Morristown NJ
International Classification:
F16D 6556
US Classification:
188 7954
Abstract:
The drum brake (10) comprises a backing plate (11) having an anchor block (15) and shoe retainer (17) attached thereto, a parking brake lever (40) connected with one (14) of a pair of drum brake shoes (12, 14), a first pair of drum brake shoe ends (16, 18) engaging an actuation mechanism (20) and a second pair of drum brake shoe ends (22, 24) engaging the anchor block (15). A cam mechanism (50) is attached pivotally to the backing plate (11) and extends transversely relative to the plane of the backing plate (11). A parking brake cable (72) extends through an opening (25) in the backing plate (11) and is connected with the cam mechanism (50) and a second, shorter cable (70) extends between the cam mechanism (50) and an end (42) of the parking brake lever (40). Retraction of the parking brake cable (72) effects a greater displacement of the shorter cable (70) and parking brake lever (40) to effect a parking brake application.
