    [0001] FIELD OF THE INVENTION The invention relates to the field of vehicle braking systems, vehicles equipped with such systems, and the cooling of these systems.
    [0002] STATE OF THE ART Referring to Figure 1, there is shown a hydraulic braking system of a vehicle. The braking system comprises a hydraulic circuit 2 for supplying the brake, comprising a reservoir, a pump connected to the reservoir and adapted to circulate a flow of oil in the circuit, and a brake supply line. The system also comprises a dynamic brake F, typically of the disc brake type. This brake comprises a disk fixed on the hub of a wheel, and brake pads coming, during the actuation of the brake, slow the rotation of the disk and thus the wheel by friction against the disk.
    [0003] The brake also comprises a hydraulic cylinder, comprising a piston movable in a cylinder, the displacement of which causes the pads against the disk. The supply of the hydraulic brake causes the filling of the cylinder chamber, causing the displacement of the piston in the cylinder, and the actuation of the brake.
    [0004] In order to regulate the braking intensity, the braking system also comprises a brake control device 3, typically with progressive mechanical control, which is actuated when the driver of the vehicle presses on the brake pedal. The control device further comprises a pressure regulating valve which enables the chamber to be filled with a variable oil pressure depending on the degree of actuation of the control. The pressure control valve includes an inlet / outlet port connected to the supply line, an inlet / outlet port connected to the reservoir, and an inlet / outlet port connected to the cylinder chamber.
    [0005] A given degree of actuation of the pedal corresponds to a desired degree of braking. During this actuation, the control valve switches to a position in which the supply line of the hydraulic circuit communicates with the cylinder chamber, until said chamber is filled to the desired pressure.
    [0006] When the pressure in the chamber exceeds the desired level, or when the brake pedal is released, the control valve switches to connect the cylinder chamber to the tank and thus empty the chamber to release the brake. During the actuation of this brake, the friction causes a significant heating of the brake which can propagate to the cylinder chamber, which causes a risk of heating and vaporization of the oil contained in the chamber, which may degrade the brake significantly and reduce its life. There is therefore a need to minimize heating in the cylinder chamber when using the brake. DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The object of the invention is to propose a braking system comprising a brake of the disc brake type, the heating of which is reduced.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF AT LEAST ONE EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION Referring to FIG. 2a, there is shown a braking system 1 of a vehicle V, according to one embodiment of the invention. This braking system 1 comprises at least one dynamic brake 10, also called service brake, used when the vehicle is moving. In Figures 2a and 2b, the braking system a single dynamic brake. In a variant, as illustrated in FIGS. 3a to 3d, the braking system 1 may comprise several dynamic brakes 10. These brakes can be actuated simultaneously and balanced or alternatively, as in the figures, be independently controlled. In this case, these brakes can be actuated for different pressure values, for example to operate the braking of two different axles such as a front axle and a rear axle of the vehicle. Depending on the number of axles of the vehicle, however, the braking system may include a higher number of brakes. Each brake 10 may be of the disc brake or drum type, and for this purpose comprises braking elements (disks or drum) and friction linings (not shown).
    [0010] Each brake also comprises a hydraulic cylinder 11 comprising a cylinder 12, and a piston 13 movable in the cylinder. The portion of the cylinder which is left empty by the piston 13 is the chamber 14 of the cylinder 11. This chamber is fed with pressure to move the piston in the cylinder and actuate the brake.
    [0011] By way of nonlimiting example, the following will be taken in the following case of a brake actuated progressively as soon as the pressure rises in the control chamber with for example 50% of the braking force at 50 bar and 100% at 100 bars.
    [0012] In FIGS. 2a to 3d, the braking system 1 also comprises a circuit 20 for supplying the brake. This circuit comprises a tank 21 at atmospheric pressure, a pump 22, adapted to collect oil from the tank (21) and circulate in the circuit. According to the above example, the pressure of the oil at the outlet of the pump is of the order of 200 to 210 bar. The pressure is thus strictly greater than the maximum brake actuation pressure to ensure this actuation, and also to charge all the hydraulic accumulators 25 of the circuit, these accumulators then being able to restore the maximum operating pressure of the brakes in the event of damage to the brakes. hydraulic circuit. In this regard, the circuit 20 also comprises a module 24 for charging the accumulators, and occasionally to empty the pump 22 when the accumulators are full. Advantageously, the circuit 20 comprises a filter 23 or strainer for filtering the oil taken by the pump 22, and a breather 27 in the reservoir 21. Finally, the circuit comprises a line 26 for supplying the brake 10, comprising an upstream portion 26 'connecting the pump 22 to the module 24, and a downstream portion 26 "at the output of the module, for delivering a hydraulic pressure to the brakes 10. Preferably, but not exclusively, the braking system 1 further comprises a static brake 50, commonly referred to as handbrake or parking brake, and used when the vehicle is static.This static brake is also powered by the supply circuit 20 and comprises in this respect a control valve 52 of lever-controlled pressure 51, adapted to connect the static brake to the tank 21 when the lever is pulled, which causes the actuation of the brake, and to supply the brake when the lever is released, causing the release of the brake.
    [0013] Advantageously, but optionally, the pressure regulating valve 52 may have a structure and an operation in accordance with those of the pressure regulating valve 32 described hereinafter with reference to FIG. 4a. The braking system also comprises a brake control device 30, comprising a progressive control 31, preferably mechanical, such as for example a brake pedal, the control device 30 being adapted to gradually actuate the brakes 10 in response to a degree of actuation of the control 31. In this regard, the control device 30 further comprises a pressure control valve 32 by brake 10. In Figures 2a and 2b there is thus shown a single valve 32 for the brake 10 Alternatively, in FIGS. 3a to 3d, there are shown two valves 32, identically controlled by the same mechanical control 31 to actuate the brakes simultaneously. Each pressure regulating valve 32 is in accordance with a valve shown diagrammatically in section in FIG. 4a and comprises: an inlet / outlet orifice 33 connected to the supply line 26 by a channel P, the channel P is therefore subjected to a flow rate at a certain pressure corresponding to the pressure delivered by the pump 22 - an inlet / outlet orifice 34 connected to the atmospheric pressure reservoir 21 via a channel T, and - an inlet / outlet orifice 35 connected to the chamber 14 of the brake cylinder 10 by a channel F.
    [0014] Each pressure regulating valve 32 comprises a line 36 for measuring pressure in the chamber 14 of the cylinder 11, making it possible to regulate the pressure in the channel F as a function of the degree of actuation of the brake control. This line 36 is shown schematically to illustrate a feedback of the pressure in the brake chamber on the operation of the valve 32, the feedback being described in more detail below. In the embodiment of FIGS. 3a to 3d, the fact of having differentiated pressure regulating valves 32 for the two brakes, each valve comprising a pressure measurement line for regulating the pressure in the chamber of the corresponding jack allows, in response to simultaneous control of the brakes, to differentiate the degree of activation of the brakes. As can be seen in FIG. 4a, each valve 32 comprises a plunger or drawer 320 mounted in translation in a cylinder 321 so as to selectively put in communication the orifice 35 of the channel F connected to the brake with the orifice 33 of the track P the pressure of the pump or with the orifice 34 of the track T at atmospheric pressure as a function of a degree of actuation of the brake pedal 31. In this respect, the valve 32 comprises a loading spring 322 placed in compression by actuation of the brake pedal 31 (or more generally of the progressive mechanical control), tending to the displacement of the plunger 320 to put the channel P in communication with the channel F. The valve 32 also comprises a feedback chamber 323 comprising a spring 324, the spring and the chamber being positioned on the opposite side to the loading spring 322 with respect to the plunger for exerting a thrust antagonistic to that of the loading spring. Thus, in the absence of actuation of the pedal 31, the spring 324 exerts a thrust on the plunger which communicates the track T with the track F and thus empties the brake chamber and releases the brakes. When the pedal 31 is actuated, the spring 322 increases its thrust on the plunger in order to put the track P in communication with the track F and thus to apply the brake by putting the brake chamber under pressure. Meanwhile, the pressure also increases in the feedback chamber 323 since it is connected to the chamber 14 of the brake. The pressure in the feedback chamber 323 is equal to the pressure in the chamber 14 of the brake, to the possible pressure drops.
    [0015] The pressure in the feedback chamber 323 exerts a thrust on the plunger 320 opposing the thrust of the loading spring 322 resulting from the actuation of the brake, and tending to reduce the flow rate from the track P to the track F. When there is a balance between the thrust of the loading spring 322 on the one hand and the thrust exerted by the fluid pressure in the feedback chamber 323 on the other hand, the plunger remains in equilibrium and maintains the pressure in track F - and in the brake chamber - at a constant value. The equilibrium depends on the geometric characteristics of the valve (plunger, cylinder) and the setting of the loading spring 322. Thus, the valve 32 delivers a pressure in the brake chamber and in the track F which is proportional to a degree of actuation of the pedal, the coefficient of proportionality depending on the characteristics of the valve and the setting of the spring. FIG. 4b shows the relationship between the pressure obtained in the chamber 14 of the brake and the degree of actuation of the pedal 31. The proportional increase in pressure as a function of the pedal travel starts only when the race exceeds a race called "dead race" in which the compression exerted by the pedal on the loading spring 322 is not sufficient to transmit a force on the plunger 321.
    [0016] When the pressure in the feedback chamber 323 of the brake exceeds the set pressure corresponding to the degree of actuation of the pedal, the additional pressure in the feedback chamber 323 urges the plunger to put the channel T in communication with the channel F and reduce the pressure in the brake.
    [0017] The pressure in the line F is therefore regulated regardless of the flow rate through F, as long as the flow capacity of the pump is not reached, that is to say as long as the pump can provide the flow rate consumed by the circuit connected to the line F. Thus the pressure in the track F and in the chamber 14 of the brake is regulated at any time depending on the degree of actuation of the brake control. This regulation is understood when the brake lining is physically supported or not on its disk or on its drum, when there is a pressure on the pedal or when released, that the brake is in movement, it is ie dynamically moving, or static, that is to say without movement. In this embodiment, it is the very operation of the valve that makes it possible to obtain this pressure regulation shown diagrammatically in the figures by line 36. Alternatively, the operation of the valve could be replaced by an electrical feedback 36 controlling the valve as a function of a pressure value measured in the chamber of the brake by a dedicated sensor.
    [0018] In all cases and to summarize, when the brake control 31 is not actuated, the pressure regulating valve 32 is in a first position where the inlet / outlet port 35 connected to the chamber 14 is connected to the inlet / outlet orifice 34 connected to the reservoir 21, in order to allow the evacuation of the oil contained, if necessary, in the chamber 14 towards the reservoir 21. When the brake control 31 is actuated, the valve 32 switches in a second position where the inlet / outlet port 35 connected to the chamber is connected to the inlet / outlet port 33 corresponding to the feed line 26, to fill the oil chamber.
    [0019] If the oil pressure in the chamber exceeds the level corresponding to the degree of actuation of the brake control 31, the valve 32 returns to its first position to restore the oil pressure, and if necessary alternates between the two positions. to stabilize the oil pressure in the chamber.
    [0020] It can thus be seen that during periods of repeated actuation of the brakes, the oil contained in the chamber can be fairly little renewed and thus warm up quickly. To ensure the cooling of the chamber 14 of the cylinder 11, the braking system further comprises a line 40 for cooling the chamber, this line being adapted to continuously supply the chamber 14 with a cooling rate, that the brakes are actuated or not. This flow rate is a low flow rate compared to the flow delivered by the pump 22. According to the above example, the flow rate delivered by the pump 22 can be of the order of 10 to 30L / min. The cooling rate may be much lower, but it must be sufficient to allow the oil volume of the chamber 14 of the cylinder 11 to be renewed in a few seconds. For example, the cooling rate may be greater than or equal to twice the volume of the chamber per minute (which makes it possible to ensure a renewal of the oil in the chamber every 30 seconds), and preferably five times the volume of the chamber per minute (to renew the oil in the chamber every 12 seconds), or even more advantageously to 10 times the volume of the chamber per minute (to renew the oil in the chamber every 6 seconds) .
    [0021] The oil is thus renewed in the chamber at a frequency corresponding to the filling frequency of the chamber by the renewal flow rate. The cooling line 40 comprises a restriction 41, which is dimensioned as a function of the (determined) flow rate which must pass through this restriction, and therefore according to the volume of the chamber 14. This makes it possible to limit the flow taken (or if necessary injected, see below relating to the embodiment of Figures 2b, 3b and 3d) of the line to which the cooling line 40 is connected. The leakage rate of the chamber 14 of the brake is thus limited, particularly with respect to the flow rate that can deliver the pump, this restriction 41 allows the pressure rise of the chamber 14 of the brake.
    [0022] There is a pressure difference between the lines located on either side of the restriction. For the chamber 14 of the brake is at the pressure regulated by the valve 32, it must always be between the valve 32 and the restriction 41. In the following, called the end of the end of the line 40 at the level of which it is connected to the line from which it takes (or if necessary injects) an oil flow; this end being opposite the end of the line 40 connected to the chamber or chambers 14 of the brake or brakes. The sampling end of the line 40 is connected to a line in which the fluid is at a pressure greater than or equal to the atmospheric pressure (tank pressure).
    [0023] According to a first embodiment, represented in FIGS. 2a, 3a and 3c, the cooling line 40 is connected, at its sampling end, to the upstream portion 26 'of the supply line 26, for example at the outlet In this embodiment, in view of the significant pressure differences that may occur between the line 26 and the chamber, the restriction 41 is advantageously a pressure-compensated flow limiter, sized to achieve optimal cooling. whatever the pressure difference at its terminals. The inlet pressure of the restriction 41 is therefore equal to the pressure in the upstream portion 26 'of the line 26 at the outlet of the pump.
    [0024] The pressure in this line varies according to an operating mode of the module 24. If this module 24 is in the charging phase of the accumulators 25, then the pressure in the line is strictly greater than the activation pressure of the brakes, and close to the pressure delivered by the pump, which, in the example above, corresponds to a pressure of the order of 200 bars. This results in the following operation: when the brake 10 is not actuated, the chamber 14 is connected to the reservoir 21, it is therefore at atmospheric pressure because the channel T of the valve 32 is connected to the channel F. pressure difference across the restriction causes the flow of a cooling flow from the upstream portion 26 'of the supply line 26 to the chamber 14 of the brake, then its discharge to the tank at atmospheric pressure 21 via the pressure regulating valve 32. When the brake 10 is actuated, the valve 32 is in the position where the chamber is fed by connecting the channel F to the channel P. The pressure in the chamber and in the channel F is less than or equal to the maximum pressure of operation of the brakes, that is to say in the example above, less than or equal to about 100 bar. There is therefore a pressure difference across the restriction 41, so that a cooling flow also feeds the chamber 14. However, when the cumulative cooling flow and brake supply causes an increase in pressure in the chamber, and thus in the feedback chamber 323 of the valve 32 above the level corresponding to the desired degree of braking, the valve 32 switches by placing the channel F in communication with the channel T to evacuate the pressure to the reservoir 21, then switches back to the brake supply position in which the F-channel is in communication with the P-channel.
    [0025] If the module 24 is in a phase of emptying the pump, the accumulators being full, the pressure on the line between 22 and 24 is low (about 5 to 20 bars for example). This then results in the following operation: - when the brake 10 is not actuated, the chamber 14 is connected to the reservoir 21 via the valve 32 which is in a position in which the channel T communicates with the channel F. The chamber 14 is therefore at atmospheric pressure. The pressure difference across the restriction causes the flow of a cooling flow from the feed line 26 of the module to the chamber 14 of the brake, then its evacuation to the tank at atmospheric pressure 21 via the valve 32 of pressure control since the channel F always communicates with the channel T. There is therefore a permanent flow of the chamber 14 of the brake to the tank via the valve 32. - When the brake 10 is actuated, the valve 32 is in the position where the chamber is powered (channel P in communication with the channel F). If the pressure in the chamber 14 is greater than the pressure at the connection with the restriction 41, a flow then flows from the downstream portion 26 "of the brake supply line, into the chamber 14 and to the portion upstream 26 'of the line 26 at the pump outlet via the restriction 41. Therefore, to compensate for this circulation likely to induce a loss of pressure in the chamber 14 and in the channel F, the valve 32 supplies the chamber 14 with a continuous flow to rebalance the pressure If, on the contrary, the pressure in the chamber 14 is lower than the pressure in the upstream portion 26 'of the supply line 26 of the module, the flow of the flow takes place from this line 26' towards the chamber 14 as when the brake is not actuated - it follows an increase in pressure in the feedback chamber 323 tending to push the plunger to put the F channel in communication with the track T and evacuate the pressure to the tank see the channel T. The operation of the pressure regulating valve thus ensures a permanent flow of fluid in the chamber of the brake to maintain permanently the pressure at a setpoint pressure corresponding to a given degree of actuation of the control brake. This therefore allows, whatever the circumstances, to renew the oil contained in the chamber to reduce the temperature of the chamber and prevent the oil from overheating. When the braking system 1 comprises several independent brakes 10, as in Figures 3a and 3c, the cooling line 40 must include additional restrictions (as many restrictions in total as there are brakes) to maintain independence brake operation. In the case shown in the figures where the braking system comprises two brakes 10, the line 40 therefore comprises two restrictions 41, 41 '.
    [0026] According to a first embodiment shown in FIG. 3a, each brake can be associated with a restriction, the two restrictions 41, 41 'being then arranged in parallel, each restriction 41 being arranged between a brake and the sampling end of the line connecting it to the upstream portion 26 'of the supply line. In practice, it is then advantageous to position these restrictions as close to the brakes, or even to arrange them in the body of the brakes, because in case of section of the cooling line 40, braking is then preserved longer. According to an alternative embodiment shown in FIG. 3c, a first restriction is located between said end of connection to the portion 26 'of the supply line, and all of the two brakes, and the second restriction 41' is located between the two chambers 14 of the cylinders to make them communicate. In practice this can be achieved by using a first restrictor 41 of the flow limiting type, and a second restriction 41 'simple between the chambers of the cylinders. According to an alternative embodiment shown in FIGS. 2b, 3b and 3d, the cooling line 40 is not connected to the supply circuit 10, but to a secondary hydraulic circuit 42 of the vehicle (at its sampling end). . Many embodiments can then be envisaged. By way of non-limiting example, the secondary circuit may be the booster circuit of the vehicle transmission circuit. In this case, the booster circuit shares the tank 21 of the supply circuit, and the oil circulates at a pressure lower than the pressure in the supply circuit, for example at a pressure of the order of 20 to 30 bars. This results in the following operation: when the brake 10 is not actuated, the chamber 14 is connected to the tank 21 by the valve 32 via the channel F in communication with the channel T, it is therefore at atmospheric pressure. The pressure difference across the restriction causes the flow of a cooling flow from the secondary circuit to the chamber 14 of the brake, then its discharge to the atmospheric pressure tank 21 via the pressure regulating valve 32 because the Track F is still in communication with the track T. When the brake 10 is actuated, the valve 32 is in the position where the chamber is powered. The pressure is less than or equal to the maximum operating pressure of the brakes, that is to say in the above example, less than or equal to about 100 bar. If the pressure in the secondary circuit is lower, which is the case if this circuit is a booster circuit, then a flow flows from the chamber 14 to the secondary circuit 42 via the restriction 41, and then to the reservoir of said circuit (not shown but which in principle is common with the reservoir 21 of the supply circuit 20). Therefore, to compensate for this circulation, the valve 32 supplies the chamber 14 with a steady flow to rebalance the pressure. If on the other hand the pressure in the secondary circuit is greater than the pressure in the chamber, then the operation is the same as in the first embodiment: a flow flows from the secondary circuit to the chamber 14 and in the channel F, causing a pressure increase in this way and in the feedback chamber 323 which communicates the channel F with the track T to discharge a flow to the tank and rebalance the pressure. Thus, in this other mode of operation, it is also ensured a permanent flow (with the exception of the case where the pressure in the brake chamber is strictly identical to the pressure of the secondary circuit, a possible situation but considered as transient and not does not affect the thermal equilibrium of the chamber) which renews the oil in the chamber and prevents it from heating up while cooling the chamber itself. As previously, in the case where the braking system comprises several independent brakes 10 (FIGS. 3b and 3d), the cooling line 40 must comprise as many restrictions as brakes 10, and in particular, in the example of FIGS. 3d, include two restrictions 41, 41 'if the braking system 1 comprises two brakes 10. According to a first embodiment shown in Figure 3b, the restrictions 41, 41' can be associated with each brake and be mounted in parallel between the sampling end of the line, which connects it to the secondary circuit 42, and the chamber of a corresponding brake 10. Alternatively, as in FIG. 3d, a first restriction 41 (for example a flow restrictor) may be arranged between the connecting end of the line 40 at the level of the secondary hydraulic circuit 42 and the set of brakes 10, and a Another restriction 41 'can be arranged between the chambers 14 of the cylinders to make them communicate with each other. In yet another embodiment illustrated in Figure 4a, the line 40 can connect the chamber 14 of the brake tank 21 at atmospheric pressure.
    [0027] In this case, the circulation of oil in the brake chamber takes place only when the brake is actuated. Indeed, when the brake is not actuated, the valve 32 connects the F view to the track T connected to the reservoir 21, so that the hydraulic pressure is the same on both sides of the chamber 14 of the brake, and that there is no fluid circulation.
    [0028] On the other hand, when the brake is actuated, the valve 32 is in the position in which the track P is connected to the track F is the chamber is powered. The pressure in the chamber therefore rises to actuate the brake, and a flow flows via the view 40 from the chamber 14 of the brake to the reservoir 21.
    [0029] To compensate for this flow rate and maintain the pressure at a constant value in the chamber 14, the valve leaves a permanent flow from the track P to the track F. This embodiment is sufficient to cool the brakes because the heating of the brakes is when activated.10
