, Description:PREAMBLE TO THE DESCRIPTION:
[0001] The following specification particularly describes the invention and the manner in which it is to be performed:
DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION:
Technical Field of the Invention
[0002] The present invention relates to a reactive combined braking system with a force multiplier for providing an efficient braking effect. Further, the present invention relates to a distributive braking force which is transmitted to the wheels of a vehicle.
Background of the Invention
[0003] An automotive braking system is an integral part of a vehicle which is designed to stop or de-accelerate the vehicle thereby providing a safe operation and better control of the vehicle. The braking system comprises various linkages and components such as brake lines, mechanical linkages, brake drum, brake disc, master cylinder, fulcrums and so on. A plurality of linkages is arranged in a braking system to convert the vehicle’s kinetic energy into heat energy which ceases the rotation of the wheel thereby reducing the speed of the vehicle. The conversion of the vehicle’s kinetic energy into heat energy is a function of the frictional force generated by the friction contact between the brake shoes and moving drum or disc of a braking system.
[0004] Further, the typical brake system provides an independent brake associated with each wheel of the vehicle. The brakes are designed to exert torque on the corresponding wheels around the axis of rotation for each wheel which reduces the speed of rotation of a wheel in the vehicle. However, in case of a two-wheeler vehicle, the brakes are actuated independently on the corresponding wheel based on the brake lever exerted by the user.
[0005] The persistent demand and the advancement of technology in the field of automobile has caused manufacturers to develop a wide range of braking systems which facilitates in reducing the speed of the vehicle in an effective manner. One such braking mechanism involves a linkage type braking system which distributes braking force on both the wheels of a vehicle when the user actuates a single braking lever. However, the conventional type of braking mechanism fails to provide an efficient braking mechanism, since the braking mechanism involves a complex operation which requires a plurality of mechanical, electrical and hydraulic components. Further, the conventional type of braking mechanism requires constant maintenance, since the braking force distributed to multiple wheels decreases over a period of time.
[0006] The U.S. Patent Application No. US7722130B2 discloses an improved brake system provided for a vehicle including at least front and rear wheels. The brake system comprises a braking force generating mechanism, a brake lever assembly and a foot-operated brake pedal. The brake force generating mechanism applies a braking force to at least a front wheel or a rear wheel of the vehicle. The brake lever assembly includes a hand-operated lever and a force actuator. The force actuator moves between at least first and second positions so as to selectively actuate the brake force generating mechanism to produce a braking force. The force actuator interacts with the hand-operated lever such that movement of the hand-operated lever moves the force actuator from the first position to at least the second position. The force actuator also interacts with the brake pedal, which are coupled together by a cable. Movement the brake pedal also moves the force actuator from the first position to the second position.
[0007] The U.S. Patent No. US8905422B2 discloses a brake system that includes a front brake mechanism, a rear brake mechanism, a front brake wire, a rear brake wire, a link, a support, and an interlocking brake wire. The link is rotatable around a fulcrum on one end thereof as measured in a longitudinal direction thereof. The support elastically supports the link at the fulcrum. The interlocking brake wire is connected with the link so as to pull the front brake wire and rear brake wire. The front brake wire, the interlocking brake wire, and the rear brake wire are connected with the link in this order, starting from the end of the link with the support, as measured in a longitudinal direction of the link.
[0008] Hence, there exists a need for a reactive combined braking system that performs braking operation in optimum time and increases the braking efficiency.
Summary of the Invention
[0009] The present invention relates to a reactive combined braking system with a force multiplier for providing an efficient braking effect. The system comprises a mount bracket established between a first end and a second end of the reactive combined braking system. The mount bracket comprises a rear cable entrenched in the mount bracket, wherein the rear cable traverses through the first end and second end of the reactive combined braking system. The mount bracket comprises a slider unit which is coupled with the rear cable inside the mount bracket, wherein the slider unit is ascended due to the towing force experienced by the rear cable when the user actuates the braking lever.
[0010] Further, the mount bracket also comprises a pivot plate which provides a die-cast end, a pivot shaft and a spring housed in the pivot plate, wherein the pivot plate is coupled to an insertable slider through a fastener. The pivot plate is coupled to the slider unit, wherein the pivot plate rotates along its axis when the slider unit is ascended upon the actuation of the rear brake lever by the user. The reactive combined braking system comprises a front brake cable which is enclosed in a bend tube, wherein the one end of front brake cable is connected to a die-cast end of the pivot plate and the other end is connected to the braking assembly of the front wheel of the vehicle. The rotation of the pivot plate actuates the front brake cable enclosed in the bend tube which transmits the braking force from the pivot plate to the braking assembly of the front wheel thereby exerting a braking force on the front wheel of the vehicle when the user actuates the braking lever.
[0011] Further, the present invention provides an efficient braking effect on both rear wheel and front wheel of the vehicle in a pre-defined ratio by actuating the rear cable when the user exerts a brake by initiating one braking lever. Further, the pivot plate provided in the mount bracket acts as a stroke multiplier to the front brake cable by increasing the braking force on the front wheel, thereby stopping the vehicle efficiently.
[0012] Thus, the present invention finds utility in the automobile industry and may be employed in a wide range of vehicles. The reactive combined braking system is productive, since the system exerts a brake force on both the front wheel and rear wheel in a pre-defined ratio thereby causing the vehicle to halt in the optimum time as per the requirement of the user. Further, the reactive combined braking system may be implemented effortlessly in a plurality of vehicles and possesses a high durability which eliminates the need for regular maintenance.

[0018] In another embodiment of the present invention, the mount bracket (101) comprises a slider unit (105) which is coupled with the rear cable (104) inside the mount bracket (101), wherein the slider unit (105) ascends due to a pull force or towing force experienced by the rear cable (104) when the user actuates the rear brake lever. Further, the mount bracket (101) comprises a pivot plate (106) which provides a die-cast end (107), a pivot shaft (108) and a spring (109) housed in the pivot plate (106), wherein the pivot plate (106) is coupled to an insertable slider (112) through a fastener (113) which may be in the form of a hexagonal bolt. The pivot plate (106) is coupled to the slider unit (105), wherein the pivot plate (106) rotates along its axis when the slider unit (105) is ascended upon the actuation of the rear brake lever by the user (105).

[0020] Further, the present invention provides an efficient braking effect on both rear wheel and front wheel of the vehicle in a pre-defined ratio by actuating the rear cable (104) when the user exerts a brake by initiating one braking lever. Further, the pivot plate (106) provided in the mount bracket (101) acts as a stroke multiplier to the front brake cable (110) by increasing the braking force on the front wheel, thereby stopping the vehicle efficiently.
[0021] Thus, the present invention finds utility in the automobile industry and may be employed in a wide range of vehicles. The reactive combined braking system (100) is productive, since the system (100) exerts brake force on both the front wheel and rear wheel in a pre-defined ratio thereby causing the vehicle to halt in the optimum time as per the requirement of the user. Further, the reactive combined braking system (100) may be implemented effortlessly in a plurality of vehicles and possesses a high durability which eliminates the need for regular maintenance.
