BRAKE DISC INSERT ASSEMBLY - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240301925 titled 'BRAKE DISC INSERT ASSEMBLY

The patent application describes an insert assembly designed to be positioned on a brake disc, consisting of an insert, a rivet, and a washer. The insert fits within a disc slot on the brake disc, while the rivet secures the insert in place by extending through a washer hole and a rivet slot. The washer is positioned between the insert and the rivet head to allow for relative motion in the tangential direction when torque is applied through the disc slot.

  • The insert assembly includes an insert, a rivet, and a washer.
  • The insert fits within a disc slot on the brake disc.
  • The rivet secures the insert by extending through a washer hole and a rivet slot.
  • The washer allows for relative motion in the tangential direction when torque is applied.
  • The rivet head is an orbitally riveted head fabricated using an orbital riveting tool.

Potential Applications: - Automotive industry for brake systems - Manufacturing of machinery and equipment requiring secure fastening components

Problems Solved: - Provides a secure and reliable method for attaching inserts to brake discs - Allows for relative motion between the insert and rivet under torque

Benefits: - Enhanced safety and performance of brake systems - Simplified assembly process for brake components

Commercial Applications: The technology can be utilized in the automotive industry for manufacturing brake systems, as well as in other industries requiring secure fastening components.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the insert assembly improve the performance of brake systems? 2. What are the advantages of using an orbitally riveted head in the insert assembly?


Original Abstract Submitted

in some examples, an insert assembly includes an insert, a rivet, and a washer configured to position on a brake disc. the insert is configured to position within a disc slot of the brake disc. the rivet shank is configured extend through a washer hole of the washer and a rivet slot of the insert to secure the insert to the brake disc. the washer is configured to be positioned between the insert and a rivet head of the rivet when the rivet shank extends into the brake disc. the rivet slot is configured to allow for the motion of the insert relative to the rivet in the tangential direction when torque is imparted through the disc slot via the insert. in some examples, the rivet is a solid rivet. in some examples, the rivet head is an orbitally riveted head fabricated using an orbital riveting tool.
