    ELECTROMECHANIC ACTUATOR WITH REDUCED SIZE FOR DISC BRAKE
    DESCRIPTION
    TECHNICAL FIELD The invention relates to a motor vehicle disc brake of the electromechanical type, that is to say comprising an electromechanical actuator for pressing one or more pads against the disk in order to generate the braking.
    STATE OF THE PRIOR ART
    More particularly, the invention relates to a disk brake having a disk overlapped by a caliper bearing friction pads and a piston for pressing these pads against the disk and an electromechanical actuator actuating the piston. In practice, the stirrup comprises a stirrup body to which the electromechanical actuator is rigidly fixed.
    The caliper body includes a base carrying the piston and a plate pushed by the piston, this base being extended by a prolonged arch by fingers carrying an opposite plate, the brake disc being located between these two plates. This caliper body is typically mounted floating while being carried by a support to be freely movable in translation along a main axis oriented transversely relative to the equipped vehicle, and which corresponds to the axis of revolution of the disc and to the axis of translation of the piston. The electromechanical actuator has a much larger footprint than that of a conventional hydraulic type actuator which is integrated into the base of the caliper body since it is limited to a compression chamber closed by the piston.
    This electromechanical actuator comprises a casing enclosing a motor coupled to a mechanical gearbox oriented along the axis of the engine parallel to the main axis, this casing being fixed to the base of the caliper body. The actuator is coupled to a helical link type motion transformation mechanism for moving the piston in translation on rotation of the motor via elements.
    The dimensions of the assembly formed by the caliper body with its actuator are penalizing because the brake is mounted in the rim of the wheel it equips. The size of the caliper equipped with its actuator is thus limited radially by the fact that it must fit between the cylindrical inner face of the rim and the brake disc.
    Given the mechanical power required, the electric motor of the actuator has significant dimensions. It is housed in a protrusion protruding from the fixing face of the housing so as to extend along the arch of the stirrup body protruding from stirrup ears receiving unrepresented columns, in the same way as this vault that he runs. The reducer is located against the base of the caliper behind the piston to be coupled to the motion transformation mechanism.
    The object of the invention is to provide a solution for reducing the size of an electromechanical brake actuator to simplify its integration.
    PRESENTATION OF THE INVENTION The subject of the invention is an electromechanical actuator for a motor vehicle brake caliper, this actuator comprising a casing having a fixing face to a caliper body, this casing enclosing a coupled electric motor and a mechanical gearbox. to each other and comprising each of the components rotating about axes parallel to an axis of rotation of the engine, characterized in that the entire motor and at least the majority of the reducer extend on the same side of the fixing face along the axis of rotation of the motor.
    With this solution, the motor assembly extends in a direction opposite to the caliper body, that is to say in the opposite direction to the internal space defined by the rim when the caliper is mounted, which allows to facilitate the integration of the stirrup equipped with its actuator since it is less constrained by the internal space of the rim. The invention also relates to an actuator thus defined, wherein the entire reducer extends on the same side of the attachment face along the axis of rotation of the motor. The invention also relates to an actuator thus defined, wherein the fixing face is flat and oriented perpendicularly to the axis of rotation of the motor. The invention also relates to an actuator thus defined, wherein the housing has an opposite face parallel to the fixing face, and wherein the motor and the gearbox both extend entirely between the fixing face and the opposite face. along the axis of rotation of the motor. The invention also relates to an actuator thus defined, in which the motor is a rotating caster motor and brushless fixed windings. The invention also relates to an actuator thus defined, integrating at least one electronic control board motor. The invention also relates to a brake caliper equipped with an actuator thus defined. The invention also relates to a stirrup thus defined, comprising a floating mounted stirrup body.

    Figure 2 is an overall view of an electromechanical actuator for equipping a stirrup and which is shown exploded;
    FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional representation of a brushless motor with a rotating casing adapted to the actuator according to the invention;
    DETAILED PRESENTATION OF PARTICULAR EMBODIMENTS
    The brake caliper body 1 which is shown in Figure 1 comprises a base 2 extended by an arch 4 extended by fingers 6. The base 2 comprises a housing 7 in which is engaged a movable piston for pressing a wafer not shown on a brake disc.
    This base 2 still encloses in the rear region of the piston a helical-link motion transformation mechanism, for converting a rotational movement into a translational movement of the piston, which corresponds to converting a moment of forces into a pressing force.
    This caliper body 1 is equipped with an electromechanical actuator 7 visible in Figure 2, to act on the piston so as to press the plate against the disk, on activation of this actuator.
    This actuator 7 comprises a casing 8 having a fixing face 9 by which it is intended to be coupled to the caliper body, and an opposite face 11 closed by a cover 12. The fixing face 9 and the opposite face 11 are substantially flat faces and parallel to each other.
    As shown in the figure, the attachment face 9 has a main portion surrounding a coupling opening 28, and by which the housing is applied against the base 2 of the caliper body, which is a completely flat surface that can be machined in the example of the figures.
    This casing 8 encloses various components forming an actuator assembly 13 coupled to a mechanical gearbox 14 which makes it possible to move the piston when this gearbox is coupled to the caliper body 1, that is to say when the actuator 7 is fixed. at the base 2.
    The gearbox 14 comprises a first double gearwheel 16 engaged in a second double gearwheel 17, which drives an epicyclic gear train 18. The motor assembly 13 comprises an electric motor 19 having an output gearwheel 20, as well as two electronic cards 21 , 22 which control this engine 19. The cards and the motor 19 are carried by a plate 23 closing and fixing in a corresponding opening 24, this opening opening into the attachment face 9 of the housing 8.
    As can be seen in FIG. 2, the elements of the gearbox revolve around axes parallel to the axis of rotation of the motor, indicated by AM. In the example of the figures, the axis AM is parallel to a main axis marked by AX which corresponds to the axis of translation of the piston when the actuator is mounted on the caliper body, this axis AX extending transversely. compared to the vehicle equipped with the brake.
    When the actuator is mounted, the motor 19 with the cards 21 and 22 are in place in the cavity corresponding to the opening 24, and the pinion 20 drives the first double gear wheel 16. The epicyclic gear train 18 comprises an output pinion 27 which opens into a corresponding opening 28 of the mounting face 9, to drive the movement transformation mechanism housed in the base 2.
    According to the invention, the actuator is arranged so that all the motor 19 and at least the majority of the gear 14 extend on the same side of the attachment face 9, along the axis AM. In other words, there is a plane normal to the axis AM located between on the one hand the fixing face 9, and on the other hand the motor and the majority of the reducer. In practice, the majority of the gearbox 14 is located on the same side as the engine with respect to this plane, it is essentially the output gear 27 of the gearbox which can be on the other side of this plane.
    In the example of the figures, the fastening face 9 is flat and normal to the axis AM, and the motor 19 completely fits between the attachment face 9 and the opposite face 11 of the casing 8 of the actuator 7. all of this actuator thus fully houses in the vicinity of the base of the stirrup body, instead of extending along the arch above the brake disc. In other words, the actuator is located entirely on the same side of the caliper body and the brake disc, instead of extending on either side of the disc.
    The engine used has a small footprint along its axis of revolution AM and a larger diameter to deliver the moment or mechanical torque required for the braking action once its speed reduced by the gearbox 14, while having a greater compactness in the example of the figures.
    This motor 19 is advantageously a brushless motor with fixed windings with rotating external carcass carrying permanent magnets, driven by the electronic cards 21, 22. This type of motor delivers for a given external diameter a greater power and / or a larger torque than the others, so that it can fit in the available space between the fixing face and the opposite face of the actuator.
    As shown in FIG. 3, a brushless motor with fixed coils and a rotating carcass comprises a fixed support 31 formed of a flat base 32 provided with a tubular central portion 33 in which a bearing is housed, formed here by two ball bearings. 34, for carrying a central rotary shaft 36. This support 31 carries a plurality of fixed windings 37 distributed around the central tubular portion 33, which are electrically powered by means of control cards such as the cards 21 and 22 of FIGS. 4. The assembly constituted by the windings 37 and the tubular central portion 33 is capped by a rotating casing 38 having an external radius R 1 which is carried by the rotary shaft 36. This rotating casing 38, which forms with the axis or shaft 36 the rotor of the motor 19, carries several permanent magnets 39 located radially facing the windings 37, so as to be rotated by them when they are food electrically.
    As can be seen in FIG. 3, because of the general structure of a brushless motor with a rotating carcass, the intermediate radius Ri corresponding to the space between the coils 37 and the permanent magnets 39 has a value very close to the external radius Re of the carcass, here Ri = Re x 80%. This allows the motor 19 to deliver a large torque since the magnetic interactions are exerted at an intermediate radius Ri very close to the outer radius Re.
    In the example of the figures, the motor 19 and its control cards 21 and 22 are carried by the closing plate 23 being fixed thereto, and the mounting of this motor and its coupling consists mainly in fixing the closing plate 23 in the opening 24 to close it.
    In the example of the figures, the mounting face 9 has a generally flat shape, mainly comprising an opening 28 through which the actuator is coupled to the base 2 of the stirrup body, while being fixed to that -this.
    Furthermore, the stirrup according to the invention advantageously comprises, in addition to the electromechanical means for moving the piston, hydraulic means for moving this piston. In this case, the electromechanical means ensure the displacement of the piston in the case of parking braking, and the hydraulic means ensure its displacement in case of service braking.
