    ELECTROMECHANICAL DISK BRAKE COMPRISING A TRANSMISSION COMPRISING AN UNEQUAL WEAR OF THE SAME WAFER
    DESCRIPTION
    TECHNICAL FIELD The invention relates to a disc brake of a motor vehicle with a fixed caliper, of the electromechanical type, that is to say equipped with an electric motor driving mechanical actuators.
    STATE OF THE PRIOR ART
    More particularly, the invention relates to a disc brake having a brake disk overlapped by a stirrup bearing at least one friction pad, at least two mechanical actuators each including a movable piston and a drive member connected to the piston by a helical link for moving a same wafer to press against the disk, an electric motor and a transmission mechanism to the drive members to move the drive members of the two mechanical actuators.
    In a hydraulic type disc brake, just as in an electromechanical brake, several actuators may be provided to jointly press a single pad against the disc when the brake is activated.
    Over time, this plate which is pressed by several hydraulic actuators, wears unevenly, so that its thickness is not constant along this plate as it wears out .
    In the case of a hydraulic caliper, the unequal thickness of the plate is compensated by the fact that the actuators that push it are connected to the same hydraulic circuit. With such a circuit the operation corresponds to that of a servocontrol in forces, which thereby allows the actuators to have races of different lengths.
    Concretely, during braking, pressurizing the hydraulic circuit, and thereby hydraulic actuators, moves the pistons of these actuators to the disk in races that may be different. This movement takes place until the pistons plating the entire plate against the disk, the pressure remaining the same in the circuit and in the actuators in all circumstances.
    It follows that with a hydraulic caliper, catching uneven wear of the wafer is done naturally: the entire plate is pressed against the disk by its hydraulic actuators when the hydraulic circuit is put under pressure.
    With a caliper electromechanical type, it is the same motor that drives the various electromechanical actuators pushing a plate, via a transmission mechanism, so that they bring the pistons of the disk to press this plate on the disk.
    If the mechanism provides a direct type transmission, the movements of the two pistons are necessarily the same when the motor drives the actuators. The unevenness of the thickness of a plate can not be compensated because the pistons driven by the motor necessarily move the same stroke when the engine is powered.
    The object of the invention is to propose an architecture ensuring a catch of the unequal wear of a wafer, in a brake having a stirrup comprising two mechanical actuators driven by the same electric motor to press the same wafer.
    PRESENTATION OF THE INVENTION To this end, the invention relates to a motor vehicle brake, intended to overlap an outer edge of a brake disc, said stirrup comprising at least one friction pad intended to be pressed against a face. the disk as well as: - two separate mechanical actuators each including a drive pinion and a movable piston resting on the plate to press against the disk by rotating the drive gears; a rotary shaft for driving the two actuators, this shaft comprising two worms having opposite winding directions, this shaft being movable in translation along its own longitudinal direction; an electric motor for driving the rotary shaft; and wherein the rotating shaft extends between the two gears with its two worm gear each geared into a pinion.
    With this arrangement, when a first part of the wafer comes into contact with the disk, the pinion of the corresponding actuator comes to rest, but the rotary shaft continues to rotate while moving to move the actuator of the other part of the actuator. the wafer until this other part comes into contact with the disk. The mechanism thus catches uneven wear of the wafer by ensuring that this wafer is fully pressed against the disk when the rotary shaft is set in motion. The invention also relates to a yoke thus defined, wherein the pinion of each actuator is connected to the corresponding piston by a helical link. The invention also relates to a stirrup thus defined, including at least two plates located on either side of the disk, and comprising two first actuators for pressing a first plate against the disk, and two second actuators for pressing a second plate against the disc, with a first rotary shaft driving the first two actuators and a second rotary shaft driving the two second actuators, and a main drive shaft of the first shaft and the second shaft, the main shaft comprising a first worm and a second worm wound in opposite directions, the first worm being engaged in a first pinion of the first shaft, the second worm being engaged in a second pinion of the second rotary shaft, the main shaft being rotated by the electric motor. The invention also relates to a brake comprising a stirrup thus defined, and a brake disc.

    DETAILED PRESENTATION OF PARTICULAR EMBODIMENTS
    The brake according to the invention which is indicated by 1 in FIG. 1 comprises a disc 2 which is overlapped by a stirrup 3 which comprises a first portion 4 by which it is carried by a not shown frame member, and a second portion 6, situated vis-à-vis the first portion 4. The stirrup overlaps the disc 2 so that the disc is interposed between its portions 4 and 6.
    The first portion 4 carries a first friction pad 7 and two first mechanical actuators 8, 9 to press this plate 7 against a face of the disk 2. Similarly, the second portion 6 carries a second friction plate 11, and two second mechanical actuators 12, 13 for pressing this second plate against the disk, when the brake is activated.
    The four mechanical actuators 8, 9, 12 and 13 extend parallel to each other along an axis AX which is itself parallel to the axis of the wheel that the brake team. The plates and the disc are oriented normal to this AX axis.
    In the following, the lower term denotes an element which is close to the axis of rotation of the wheel equipped with the brake, and the upper term denotes an element which is remote from the axis of rotation of the wheel. The actuators 8 and 12 are thus the lower actuators of the brake and the actuators 9 and 13 are the upper actuators of the brake. This corresponds to a configuration in which the stirrup is located at the top of the disc, as illustrated in the figures. But as will be understood, the same stirrup can be mounted in the lower part of the disc, or in the front or rear part of the disc. The actuator 8 which is closest to the axis of rotation of the wheel is thus the first lower actuator while the actuator 9 which is further from this axis is the first upper actuator. The lower actuator 8 thus bears on a portion of the first plate 7 which is close to the lower edge of this plate, while the actuator 9 presses a portion of the first plate 7 which is close to its upper edge.
    In the same way, the second lower actuator 12 which is closest to the axis of rotation supports a wafer portion near its lower edge and the second upper actuator 13 is further from the axis to press a portion of the plate 11 which is close to its upper edge. The actuator 8 comprises a drive member in the form of a pinion 8a carried by a threaded pin about which is screwed a piston 8b, the piston 8b and the axis being thus connected by a helical link. The piston 8b is movable in translation in a corresponding housing of the yoke being locked in rotation about the axis AX.
    When the pinion 8a is rotated about the axis AX, it causes the displacement of the piston 8b in one direction or the other parallel to the axis AX, according to the direction of rotation of the pinion 8a.
    As shown in Figure 1, the plate 7 is more heavily worn on the side of its lower edge than the side of its upper edge. It thus has a sloping shape when viewed in cross section as in Figure 1, its thickness increasing from its lower edge to its upper edge.
    The pinions 8a and 9a of the actuators 8 and 9 rotate about axes parallel to the axis AX, and they are rotated by the same shaft or shaft 14 which has a lower worm 16 meshing with the pinion 8a of the lower actuator 8, and an upper worm gear 17 meshing with the pinion 9a of the upper actuator 9.
    As shown in Figure 2, the shaft 14 is oriented in a direction normal to that of the axis ΑΧ. It is engaged with the pinions 8 and 9 passing between these gears, and the lower worm 16 is wound in the normal direction while the upper worm 17 is wound in the opposite direction.
    Under these conditions, when the shaft 14 rotates in the direct direction indicated by DIR, it causes a rotation in the indirect direction of the pinion 8a which causes the output of the piston 8b. This rotation in the direct direction of the shaft 14 also causes rotation in the indirect direction of the pinion 9a.
    Indeed, the upper worm 17 is wound in the opposite direction of the lower worm 16, but these two worm gear meshing gears 8a and 9a by their opposite sides, since the axis 14 passes between these pinions 8a and 9a instead of being on the same side of these gears, as clearly visible in Figure 2. Thus, when the worm 16 and 17 rotate in the same direction, they finally cause the pinions 8a and 9a in the same meaning.
    Therefore, in general, a rotation of the shaft 14 in the direct direction DIR causes an output of the pistons 8b and 9b, while a rotation of this shaft 14 in the indirect direction causes the retraction of these pistons 8b and 9b.
    In practice, when the brake is controlled to press the pads on the disk, the shaft 14 is rotated in the direct direction DIR, which causes the output of the pistons 8a and 9a. The plate 7 then comes to rest on the disc 2 in a region near its upper edge, which immobilizes the piston 9b, as well as its drive pinion 9a. The shaft 14 then continues to rotate, but the pinion 9a being immobilized, this rotation of the shaft 14 causes it to move in translation along its longitudinal axis, downwards in FIG. 3. Under these conditions, the pinion 8a which is not immobilized continues to rotate under the effect of the rotation of the lower worm 16 carried by the shaft 14, which allows to continue the output of the piston 8b until the lower portion of the wafer 7 is at rest on the disc 2. At this stage, the lower gear 12a is also immobilized, so that the shaft 14 can almost no longer rotate beyond its current position, the plate 7 is then fully applied and pressed against disk 2 although it has a sloping shape resulting from uneven wear.
    As will be understood, the second actuators 12 and 13 which are located in the second portion 6 of the yoke, are also driven in motion by an axis or shaft 18 carrying a lower worm 19 and a worm upper 21. These worm 19 and 21 are engaged in the pinions 12a and 13a in a general arrangement quite similar to that of the assembly formed by the first two actuators 8 and 9, as shown in Figures 4 and 5 Nevertheless, in order for all the pistons of the actuators to press the plates against the disk, it is necessary for the shafts 14 and 18 to rotate in the opposite direction, otherwise the first pistons will come out while the second pistons are coming in, or vice versa.
    As can be seen in particular in FIGS. 4 and 5, the first shaft 14 and the second shaft 18 are rotated by one and the same main shaft 22 oriented parallel to the axis AX. This main shaft 22 carries a first worm 23 geared in a first pinion 24 carried by the first shaft 14, and a second worm gear 26 engaged in a second pinion 27 which is carried by the second shaft 18.
    Advantageously, the geared motor assembly or the screw / nut device is irreversible so as to maintain the pads 7 and 11 applied to the disk without power to the motor or, conversely, to maintain them in the disc's discarded position, condition non-braking.
    In a first embodiment, the electric drive system pads 7 and 11 provide on command service braking, emergency and parking.
    In a second advantageous variant, the brake according to the present invention further comprises a hydraulic service braking device of known type commonly called "fixed brake", the electrical device for driving pads 7 and 11 providing emergency braking and braking. car park. 1: brake according to the invention 2: disc 3: stirrup 4: first portion 6: second portion 7: first brake pad 8: first lower actuator 9: first upper actuator 11: second pad 12: second lower actuator 13: second actuator upper 14: shaft 16: first lower worm 17: first upper worm 18: shaft 19: second lower worm 21: second upper worm 8a: first lower gear 8b: first lower piston 9a: first upper gear 9b: first upper piston 12a: second lower gear 12b: second lower piston 13a: second lower gear 13b: second upper piston 14: first shaft; 16: first lower worm; 17: first upper worm; 18: second tree; 19: second lower worm; 21: second upper worm; 22: main tree; 23: first worm; 24: first head gear; 26: second worm; 27: second head gear; AX: axis; DIR: direct direction.
