Ensemble logique de freinage FAW Zhongqiao: Une analyse critique de 23 “ABS Model” Composants

Bienvenue dans cette analyse technique critique du Ensemble logique de freinage FAW Zhongqiao (Assemblée 549). C'est le complet, S-Cam, “ABS Model” drum brake assembly for the “Zhongqiao” or *centre* (avant) drive axle of the FAW Jiefang CA4251P66K24T1A3E5 6×4 tracteur semi-remorque diesel. Cette assemblée est une première “service brake” responsible for providing a large portion of the vehicle’s stopping power.

Le Ensemble logique de freinage FAW Zhongqiao is a heavy-duty pneumatic “logique” système. Its function is to convert high-pressure air from the ‘Spring brake chamber’ (3530015-98R-C00) into immense mechanical stopping force. This is achieved through the rotational logic of the ‘S-Cam’ (3502015-98R.) and the ‘Rear slack adjuster assembly’ (3501205DCA1Q).

This in-depth guide is an essential resource for professional brake technicians and fleet managers. Nous déconstruirons l'ensemble Ensemble logique de freinage FAW Zhongqiao système dans son 23 composants réparables, including the S-cams, slack adjusters, brake shoes, support brackets, and the critical springs and rollers that ensure fail-safe operation. Understanding this Ensemble logique de freinage FAW Zhongqiao is paramount for vehicle safety.

Cœur “Logique” 1: The S-Cam Actuation System

Le coeur du Ensemble logique de freinage FAW Zhongqiao‘s actuation “logique” est le “S-Cam.” This assembly includes the ‘Rear left cam’ (3502015-98R.) and ‘Rear right cam’ (3502020-98R.). This is a simple, robust, and incredibly powerful mechanism.

This component is a solid, S-shaped, forged steel “cam” that is part of a shaft. This shaft passes through the ‘Rear brake support’ (3502026-98R.) and is supported by ‘Bushing-cam shaft’ (3502409-98R.). On the outside of the Ensemble logique de freinage FAW Zhongqiao, this shaft is splined to the ‘Slack adjuster assembly’ (3501205DCA1Q).

Voici le “logique” de la Ensemble logique de freinage FAW Zhongqiao in action:

1. The driver presses the brake pedal, sending air to the ‘Spring brake chamber’ (3530015-98R-C00).
2. The air chamber pushes a rod, which rotates the ‘Slack adjuster’.
3. The ‘Slack adjuster’ rotates the S-cam shaft.
4. Le “S” profile of the cam rotates between the two ‘Brake shoe rollers’ (non répertorié, but part of shoe assy).
5. Comme le “high spot” de la “S” rotates, it acts as a wedge, forcing the two ‘Rear brake shoe friction plate assembly’ (3502375-98R.) units apart with immense mechanical advantage.
6. This forces the ‘Brake lining’ (3502407-98R.) into the ‘Rear brake drum’ (see Assembly 528), creating the friction that stops the truck.

When the driver releases the pedal, air is vented, and the ‘Return springs’ (3502436-98R., 3502392-98R.) snap the shoes back together, forcing the S-cam to rotate back to its “home” position. This simple, powerful logic is the standard for heavy-duty air brakes. Le Ensemble logique de freinage FAW Zhongqiao relies on this S-cam design for its stopping power.

Cœur “Logique” 2: The Self-Adjusting System (3501205DCA1Q)

The most important safety “logique” de la Ensemble logique de freinage FAW Zhongqiao is its “self-adjusting” capability. This is the function of the ‘Block assembly’ (3501205DCA1Q), which is the self-adjusting slack adjuster.

As the ‘Brake lining’ (friction material) wears down, le “écart” between the shoe and the drum increases. This means the S-cam must rotate further and further to make contact. Ce “mou” results in a long, “spongy” pedal travel and dangerously slow brake application.

This ‘Block assembly’ (slack adjuster) est la solution. It is an “intelligent” lever. It contains an internal one-way clutch mechanism. During normal braking, it acts as a solid lever. Cependant, if the travel (le “mou”) becomes too great, the internal mechanism “clics” one notch on its return stroke. Ce “cliquez” slightly rotates the resting position of the S-cam shaft, permanently “adjusting” le “home” position of the brake shoes to be closer to the drum.

Ce “self-adjusting” logic is a critical safety feature that ensures the Ensemble logique de freinage FAW Zhongqiao is always in perfect adjustment, providing a firm pedal and immediate stopping power. A failed slack adjuster (one that is seized or has a broken spring) is a critical fault that will cause the brakes on that wheel to either drag (if stuck “sur”) or not apply (if stuck “off”). This component is a key part of the Ensemble logique de freinage FAW Zhongqiao système.

The Foundation: Supports, Shoes, and Springs

L'ensemble Ensemble logique de freinage FAW Zhongqiao must be mounted to the non-rotating centre axle housing (see Assembly 400). Ce “foundation” is provided by the ‘Rear brake support’ (3502026-98R.). This heavy-duty steel “araignée” bracket is the anchor for the entire system, secured to the axle flange by ‘Hex flange bolts’ (Q1841040T).

The ‘Rear left (up/down) brake shoe friction plate assembly’ (3502375-98R., 3502380-98R.) are the main friction components. These are the steel “shoes” (‘Rear brake shoe web’ – 3502398-98R.) that hold the ‘Brake lining’ (3502407-98R.). These linings are attached with 128 ‘Brake lining plate rivets’ (3502408-A0E). The shoes themselves pivot on the ‘Rear brake shoe shaft’ (3502086-98R.).

Le “sécurité intégrée” la logique du Ensemble logique de freinage FAW Zhongqiao is provided by the springs. The ‘Return spring’ (3502436-98R.) is a high-tension spring that is constantly *pulling* the brake shoes *away* from the drum. The ‘Return spring hook pin’ (3502392-98R.) and ‘Cotter pins’ (Q43690) hold it in place. The instant the driver releases the brake pedal, this spring snaps the shoes back, immediately releasing the brake. A broken or weak return spring is a dangerous fault that will cause the Ensemble logique de freinage FAW Zhongqiao à “drag,” leading to overheating, brake fade, and potential fire.

Le “Muscle”: ‘Spring Brake Chamber’ (3530015-98R-C00)

Le “muscle” de la Ensemble logique de freinage FAW Zhongqiao is the ‘Rear left/right spring brake chamber quick connector assembly’ (3530015-98R-C00, 3530020-98R-C00). C'est un “spring brake” ou “maxi-brake” chamber, which is a key “logique” and safety component.

This chamber is actually *two* chambers in one:

1. **Service Brake:** Le “devant” half is a standard air chamber. When the driver presses the pedal, air enters this chamber, pushing a rod to apply the Ensemble logique de freinage FAW Zhongqiao (as described with the S-Cam).
2. **Parking/Emergency Brake:** Le “back” half contains a massive, powerful spring that is *always* trying to push the rod and apply the brake. The *only* thing that releases it is high-pressure air (80+ psi).

C'est le “sécurité intégrée” logique. To drive the truck, the driver must “charge” the system, sending air to this rear chamber to “cage” or compress the powerful spring, *releasing* the parking brake. If the truck ever loses all air pressure (Par exemple, from a burst Conduite de frein FAW or compressor failure), this spring is automatically released, mechanically applying the Ensemble logique de freinage FAW Zhongqiao and stopping the truck. The ‘Support’ (3501033-242) and ‘Dust cover-brake shoe’ (3502031-98R.) help protect these vital components.
