摘要:
The invention relates to a "dual-mode" drum brake for a vehicle, which operates as a service brake in simplex mode and as a parking brake in duo servo mode. The invention also relates to a vehicle including such a drum brake, and to a method for assembling such a drum brake. When operating as a service brake, a first actuator separates two movable ends of the brake shoes while the opposite ends thereof both abut with the housing of a second actuator. When operating as a parking brake, said second actuator separates the two abutting ends from one another, while the movable ends engage one another via a floating inserted element, for example a wear-adjusting rod. All braking or holding torque is transmitted to the plate by the abutment end of a single brake shoe, by engaging, on one side, the housing of the second actuator. The second actuator uses two pistons, one of which is a "spring package", moved by a screw-and-nut system driven by a pre-assembled sub-assembly of gears with axes that are all parallel to the movement of the pistons. The system is driven, on the other side of the plate, by an electric motor-reducer with double planetary gearset sharing a single ring gear.

The invention relates to an actuator for brake shoes inside a drum brake of a motor vehicle, in particular with an electric motor. The invention also relates to a brake provided with such an actuator, for example a "drum-in-hat" composite brake or a dual-mode brake combining a service brake in "simplex" mode and a parking brake in "duo-servo" mode. The actuator includes a linear actuator assembly including a screw-and-nut system and is capable of separating the ends of the brake shoes. Said screw-and-nut system is driven by a transmission sub-assembly which in turn is driven by an electric motor. Said transmission sub-assembly rotates an element for actuating the linear actuation assembly using a guide rail connection. In particular, said actuator element is translatably movable in a single direction and rotatably fixed to a gear of the transmission sub-assembly.

A friction brake device 10 has a brake rotor 12 that rotates around an axis of rotation 18, brake pads 14A and 14B that can rotate around an axis of autorotation 40 parallel to the axis of rotation, support members 38A and 38B that support the brake pads respectively, and pressing devices 60A and 60B that press the brake pads against the brake rotor respectively. In the friction brake device 10, when the brake pads are pressed against the brake rotor, the brake pads revolve around the axis of rotation relatively to the brake rotor while being frictionally engaged with lateral faces of the brake rotor respectively. The support members press the brake pads in a direction perpendicular to the axis of rotation, and frictionally engage outer peripheries of the brake pads with a cylindrical face of the brake rotor respectively. The brake pads auto-rotate around the axis of autorotation upon beginning to be pressed, but come to rest when the pressing force increases.
