The brakes, like the engine transmission system, are the basic components of the car responsible for slowing down and stopping. The gas produced by most kinetic energy cars will dissipate when slowing down and stopping (with brakes). Other contributions come from air resistance and tire rolling resistance). There are two main types of car brakes: drum brakes and disc brakes. Drum brakes are an extension of the type of brakes used on early cars, and more and more car manufacturers are beginning to use disc brakes. Therefore, we are discussing this type here.
The brake is to park immediately in the future when the motor is out of power, so that the machine stops at the position where it should be stopped, and there will not be too much error travel. There are several types of clutches, such as separable clutches, which can separate some of the automatically changed machinery from some of the changed machinery. When work is required, close the clutch and you can work, avoiding frequent starting of the motor. Harm to the motor. There is also an overrunning clutch. It is a mechanical protection device. When some machinery is overloaded, the overrunning clutch will slip, so that excessive damage will not occur to the machine.
Take Honda as an example to explain how to adjust the handbrake. Friends who drive Honda will know that due to the wear of the brake pads, the handbrake that has been used for a long time will be raised very high. And the material of steel wire. We know that the steel wire is elastic and will become longer and longer after being pulled for a long time, so the handbrake will naturally become looser and looser. How can we lower the handbrake? Generally speaking, the adjustment is not in the gearbox or under the chassis. Today we take Honda as an example. Honda's gear is adjusted in the gear box. First of all, we can remove the glue next to the gear and see what it looks like inside. After removing it, we can see a switch inside. However, if you want to adjust, you must remove the entire plastic box, and the handbrake adjustment place is slightly behind.
The brake pads were frozen. If it is found that the brake pads are frozen on the car disc, it will cause the handbrake to not move. It is recommended to use a gentle knock to vibrate the caliper to thaw it, which is too likely to occur in winter.
Handbrake drive mechanism stuck. Although the handbrake is released, the friction resistance of the handbrake cable is too large, which can not be completely released. This phenomenon is very simple to check. You can try to pull down the handbrake and feel its strength.
