Abstract

Disclosed herein is a piston for a brake. The piston for a brake according to the present embodiment includes a body made of a synthetic resin, the body having both ends communicating with each other and both sides hollowed in a cup shape, and a footing made of metal provided from one end side of the body to one side of the inside of the body to prevent external force from being applied directly to the body by a spindle and a brake pad.

Claims (31)

1 . A piston for a brake comprising:

a body including a spindle entry which is provided at one end, and a footing fastener which is provided at the other end, and a first anti-rotation part provided between the spindle entry and the footing fastener; and

a footing including a footing rod insertedly fixed to the footing fastener, and a footing plate provided at one end of the footing rod and supported by a footing support to thus be coupled to the body,

wherein the footing fastener comprises at least one ring-shaped sealing protrusion provided on the inner circumferential surface, and

wherein the footing fastener comprises at least one ring-shaped sealing protrusion provided on the inner circumferential surface.

2 . The piston of claim 1 , wherein the spindle entry comprises a body taper in which a cross-sectional area of the spindle entry decreases toward the first anti-rotation part.

3 . The piston of claim 1 , wherein the body further comprises a sealing member fastening groove provided on an outer circumferential surface of an end side in which the footing fastener is provided for fastening the sealing member for sealing with a cylinder provided so that the piston for a brake moves forward and backward.

4 . The piston of claim 1 , wherein the footing rod comprises a spindle accommodation part provided with:

a second anti-rotation part extending from one end of the first anti-rotation part inside the footing rod; and

a footing taper extending from the second anti-rotation part on the footing plate side.

5 . The piston of claim 1 , wherein the footing plate comprises at least one guide hole provided in a direction of a forward and backward motion of the piston for a brake.

6 . The piston of claim 5 , wherein the footing support further comprises a guide groove extending from the guide hole in the direction of the forward and backward motion of the piston for a brake.

7 . The piston of claim 4 , wherein the body further comprises a stepped part provided between the second anti-rotation part and the footing fastener.

8 . The piston of claim 7 , wherein the stepped part comprises at least two first anti-separation protrusions protruding toward the footing rod.

9 . The piston of claim 8 , wherein the footing rod comprises a first anti-separation groove into which the first anti-separation protrusion is inserted.

10 . The piston of claim 1 , wherein the body further comprises at least two second anti-separation grooves provided on a surface on which the footing plate is supported.

11 . The piston of claim 10 , wherein the footing plate comprises a second anti-separation protrusion inserted into the second anti-separation groove.

12 . The piston of claim 1 , wherein the body and the footing are integrally arranged by an insert injection molding.

13 . A piston for a brake comprising:

a body made of a synthetic resin, the body having both ends communicating with each other and both sides hollowed in a cup shape; and

a footing made of metal provided from one end side of the body to one side of the inside of the body to prevent external force from being applied directly to the body by a spindle and a brake pad,

wherein the body comprises:

a spindle entry which is provided at one end and into which the spindle is inserted; and

a footing fastener which is provided at the other end and into which the footing is fastened,

wherein the footing comprises:

a footing rod in which the spindle is inserted and secured into the footing fastener and inside which one end of the spindle is accommodated; and

a footing plate provided at one end of the footing rod to press the brake pad,

wherein the footing fastener comprises at least one ring-shaped sealing protrusion provided on the inner circumferential surface, and

wherein the footing rod comprises a sealing groove into which the sealing protrusion is inserted.

14 . The piston of claim 13 , wherein the footing rod comprises a second anti-rotation part provided to prevent the spindle from rotating.

15 . The piston of claim 13 , wherein the body is made of lightweight material, including any one among aluminum, polymer resin, and phenol resin, and the footing is made of steel, so that the body and the footing are provided integrally by an insert injection molding.
