Vehicle brake transmission

摘要

A vehicle brake transmission includes a housing unit, a motor assembly, and a speed reduction unit. The housing unit includes a ring gear disposed around a first axis. The motor assembly includes a motor, and a worm rod extending along a second axis perpendicular to the first axis. The speed reduction unit is disposed in the housing unit, and includes a driving member, a planet carrier, and a plurality of planet gears. The driving member includes a worm wheel meshing with the worm rod, and a sun gear centered at the first axis and meshing with the planet gears. The planet carrier includes an input shaft connected to a caliper device. The motor drives rotation of the worm shaft, the driving member, the planet gears, and the input shaft, so as to activate the caliper device.

1. A vehicle brake transmission adapted for activating a caliper device, said vehicle brake transmission comprising:
a housing unit including a ring gear disposed around a first axis; a motor assembly mounted to said housing unit and including a motor, and a worm shaft driven by said motor to rotate about a second axis perpendicular to said first axis; and a speed reduction unit disposed in said housing unit and including a driving member driven by said worm shaft of said motor assembly to rotate about said first axis, a planet carrier located under said driving member and disposed pivotally in said housing unit, and a plurality of planet gears meshing with said ring gear of said housing unit, said driving member including a worm wheel meshing with said worm shaft, and a sun gear connected integrally with said worm wheel, extending along said first axis, and meshing with said planet gears, said planet carrier including an input shaft adapted to be connected with said caliper device and extending along said first axis; wherein said motor is operable to drive rotation of said worm shaft, said driving member, said planet gears, and said input shaft of said planet carrier, so as to activate said caliper device; wherein said housing unit further includes a first bearing disposed along said first axis, and a second bearing disposed along said second axis, said planet carrier further including a position limiting hole formed in a center thereof and centered at said first axis, said driving member further including a pivot shaft disposed at a top end thereof and extending through said first bearing along said first axis, and a position limiting shaft disposed at a bottom end of said driving member and extending through said position limiting hole along said first axis, said worm shaft having an end extending through said second bearing; wherein said housing unit further includes a housing body disposed around said input shaft and permitting said worm shaft and said speed reduction unit to be disposed therein, and a top cover connected to and disposed above said housing body; and wherein said housing body includes a bottom wall perpendicular to said first axis, a primary surrounding wall extending upwardly from an outer periphery of said bottom wall to define a primary chamber, and a secondary surrounding wall connected to said primary surrounding wall and disposed around said second axis to define a secondary chamber, said top cover having a cover body perpendicular to said first axis and covering removably said housing body, and a groove formed in a central portion of said cover body and permitting said first bearing to be received therein, said speed reduction unit being disposed within said primary chamber, said worm shaft and said second bearing being disposed within said secondary chamber, said ring gear being disposed on an inner surface of said primary surrounding wall.
