Abstract

Disclosed is an electric caliper brake. The electric caliper brake includes a carrier including a pair of pad plates installed to be moveable forward and backward, a caliper housing configured to be installed to be slidable on the carrier and to have a cylinder in which a piston of which an inside is dug in a form of a cup is moveable forward and backward due to a brake hydraulic pressure, a power conversion unit including a spindle member installed to pass through a rear of the cylinder and rotating due to a rotational force delivered from an actuator and a nut member screw-coupled to the spindle member, disposed in the piston, moving forward and backward according to rotation of the spindle member, pressurizing the piston, and releasing the pressurizing, and a filling member configured to be disposed in the piston in such a way that rotation of the filling member is limited, the filling member being coupled to the nut member.

Claims (7)

1. An electric caliper brake comprising:

a carrier including a pair of pad plates installed to be moveable forward and backward;

a caliper housing configured to be installed to be slidable on the carrier and to have a cylinder in which a piston of which an inside is dug in a form of a cup is moveable forward and backward due to a brake hydraulic pressure;

a power conversion unit including a spindle member installed to pass through a rear of the cylinder and rotating due to a rotational force delivered from an actuator and a nut member screw-coupled to the spindle member, disposed in the piston, moving forward and backward according to rotation of the spindle member, pressurizing the piston, and releasing the pressurizing; and

a filling member having a hollow portion of which a center is hollow and the filling member is fitted and coupled into the piston in such a way that rotation of the filling member is limited, the filling member being coupled to the nut member, wherein an outer circumferential surface of the filling member has a polygonal shape and the hollow portion has a polygonal shape, and the nut member has a shape corresponding to the hollow portion.

2. The electric caliper brake according to claim 1 , wherein the filling member includes an anti-rotation surface having at least one plane on an outer circumferential surface of the filling member, and at least one anti-rotation jaw having a plane corresponding to the anti-rotation surface formed on the outer circumferential surface of the filling member is formed on an inner circumferential surface of the piston.

3. The electric caliper brake of claim 1 , wherein the outer circumferential surface of the filling member has at least six sides, and an inner circumferential surface of the piston comprises at least two anti-rotation jaws.
