Today, the car's safety performance increasing people's attention, a car is also on the mounting more and more brake assist system to improve driving safety, while the brake system two basic parts - brake discs and brake pads Braking is the key vehicle production. Today we'll talk about them specifically brakes for safe driving your car escort.

From the brake disc can be divided into formal vehicle brakes and drum brakes, brake pads have been divided into two major categories of disc and drum. Wherein the drum brakes widely used within the brake drum A0-level models, which is characterized by cheap, single braking power, but are prone to continuous braking heat recession, its structure is not conducive to the owners of a closed self-test. The disc brakes rely on its high braking efficiency is widely used in the brake systems of modern cars in this article on the brake pads against the disc are described and explained.

Role brakes and brake system structure

Brakes as brake system, an important part of its work must depend on the entire brake system. So, first we will brake systems analysis, allowing you a more comprehensive understanding of the brakes work state in the whole braking system.

Disc brake caliper brake disc brakes and the wheels connected by an edge and its composition. When the brake pedal, the brake master cylinder piston may be pushed inside, build pressure in the brake oil passage. Transmitted via the brake fluid pressure to the brake cylinder piston brake calipers, brake wheel cylinder pistons move and push the brake pads to clamp the brakes, so the brake pads and brake disc friction under pressure after outward to reduce wheel speed, so as to achieve the purpose of braking.

Since the brakes, sheet exposed to the air, so that the disc brake has a good thermal performance at high speed when the vehicle brakes or do in a short time several brakes, brake performance difficult recession, allowing the vehicle to get a better The braking effect, improves vehicle safety.

From the above description of the brake pads can be seen to play a pivotal role in the braking of the vehicle, from a structural perspective, brakes generally composed of steel, insulation and friction blocks. Wherein the strip is to go through the coating to rust. Thermal insulation materials made not because brake friction will produce a lot of heat, if these heat transfer to the brake caliper, and eventually transferred to the brake cylinder in the oil, brake oil temperature rise will lead to generate boiling bubbles formed air resistance in the brake oil line, resulting in decreased vehicle braking force. Friction block friction material and a binder, when the vehicle is braking will squeeze the friction block and brake disc friction, generating a braking force reaches the braking purpose.
