TECHNICAL PAPER – INTRODUCTION, MOTIVATION AND STATE OF THE ART In this paper a measuring device is introduced which for the first time enables measuring the clamping forces acting during a braking process in the friction area between pad and disc. Here the amount and the contact point are determined finger- and piston-sided at the same time. The motivation for measuring these quantities is that a lot of processes in the brake are unknown. This is reflected in the large number of research and development papers as e.g. papers about braking torque and variations of the friction coefficient, emergence caused by expansion of DTV (e.g. 14), squeal (e.g. 8), brake judder (e.g. 22), emergence of Hot Spots (16) and comfort and performance features as well. In many approaches one cautiously approaches processes during a braking process by simulations of the wheel brake, e.g. (13), who researches the emergence of Disc Thickness Variation (DTV) by means of a multi-body model. The input of the simulation model is generally the brake’s clamping force as a causal effective quantity. Thus, the information about the clamping force can serve to validate the simulation model. However, as both the amount and the point of application of load of the clamping force are not available, the piston force (the differences between piston and clamping force will be discussed later in this paper) is generally used instead. For future electromechanical vehicle brakes, according to (15), the measurement of the clamping force in a force measuring pad, for example, would also be a missing “puzzle piece” in the control circuit of electromechanical braking systems till now. It would not be necessary any more to estimate the braking torque by complex models for reconstruction of the braking force. The main components of a disc brake are the brake pads, the brake disc and the caliper (Fig. 1). Fig. 1: Components of a disc brake: brake pad, brake disc, caliper The basic quantities of the forces in a brake are presented in Fig. 2.

From the hydraulic pressure p and the piston surface AP results the clamping force FC. The latter causes the tangential force 2T CF F µ= ⋅ on both friction areas. The tangential force causes, together with the active friction radius ra, the braking torque B T aM F r= ⋅ . After all, the braking torque is the quantity which causes with the help of the dynamic tire radius in the contact patch of the tire the desired braking force and thus the deceleration of the vehicle. Detailed researches show that some simplifications are assumed in this model of forces. (4) Fig. 3 observes the forces acting on a brake pad more exactly.

Fig. 3: Forces acting on a brake pad during a braking process (4) A further phenomenon is presented in Fig. 4. The caliper can be assumed model-likely as a u-profile which inevitably expands itself under the high clamping forces. Because of that, shifting of the points of application of load and therefore a bigger active friction radius can be expected. Furthermore, the assumption that no identical shiftings will appear finger- and piston-sided seems reasonable, since the finger side has more elastic qualities than the piston side with regard to construction.

By the support of the tangential force on the stator a force FC,red opposite to the brake piston results. Thus, it shows that the clamping force does not correspond to the piston force during a braking process. Furthermore, this also shows that one cannot start with a uniform surface pressing (compare ∆FC) and that the point of application of load shifts while braking, correspondingly FC,m, and does not lie on the same function line as the piston force.

In the analyses of the brake disc is also apparent that the distribution of the surface pressing Figures 2 to 5 show that inconsistent/not uniform surface pressing can be expected in a disc brake. According to (4) this would lead to a slanted wear of the brake pads. Furthermore, a higher energy expenditure results on the positions with higher surface pressing which leads to higher temperatures. On the other hand, according to (3), higher temperatures drop to lower friction coefficients and this reduces the efficiency of the brake. According to (4), the comfort of the brake is also reduced, since sloping worn pads increase the squealing sensibility. In order to avoid or reduce the problems mentioned, different measures are used in serial brakes. Nowadays piston offsets, cuttings in the metal sheet, shiftings of the centre of pressing of the piston, drawn pads (push-pull principle), two-piston calipers with different piston diameters and even further measures are used among other things to counteract these effects. In order to determine the influence of these measures and the actual surface pressing various methods were developed. State of the art are the tension-optical ball pressing process, pressure indication films of the company Fuji and electrical pressure indication films of the company Tekscan (18), for example. In the tension-optical ball pressing process of the company Girling (4) one 1.5 to 2 mm thick plastic plate with known tension-optical properties and a ball cage with balls with a diameter of 3 mm between brake pad and brake disc are laid. By increase of the hydraulic pressure of the brake system the balls are pressed into the plastic material. Tension curves, which help one to make statements about the transmitting force, can be seen under polarized light.

The contact pressure distribution of the clamping force and the point of application of load calculated by the red-white rhomb are to be derived. Further researches with electrical pressure indication films can be found in (1 and 9), for example.

All these methods have, beside their limited accuracy (e.g. Tekscan fault indication >10% (18)) the disadvantage that they can be only applied by a stationary brake disc. According to Fig. 3, however, it appears that during the braking process other distributions lead to the clamping force by the support of the tangential force. By these methods the effect of the caliper expansion can be primarily examined, which, however, will not behave in the same way during the braking process as one by a stationary disc. Measuring methods for determination of the clamping force during a braking process do not exist until now. The focus of this work lays on the determination of the point of application of the clamping force of the finger and piston side during the braking process correspondingly to Fig. 8.

Fig. 8: Shifting of the point of application of the clamping force DESIGN OF THE MEASURING SYSTEM In order to measure the desired forces, an analysis of the force lines in a disc brake is necessary. For this analysis and the following measurements a two-piston finger framework caliper of the company Continental Teves (type 2 FNR-Al42, fig. 1) was chosen. This caliper is currently used in many upper class vehicles. In Fig.9 the force lines of the clamping and the tangential force are qualitatively presented.

Important selection criteria for the sensor technology are the forces to be transmitted (up to 40kN), the building space requirement (integrable in a brake pad), use in a serial caliper, quasi-statical and dynamical measurement, low temperature dependency… After comparing a number of sensor principles (among others strain gauges, piezo ceramics, capacitive sensors…) the use of the piezo-electrical (Fig. 11) effect was chosen. (12, page 184) Fig. 11: Piezo-electrical effect without/under force effect / piezo quarz material (2) Detail information about piezo quartz sensors can be found in (17). In the end piezo quartz sensors of the company Kistler of type 9136B (Fig. 12) were chosen. Decisive were, besides the big measurement range, the low building height and the stiffness that approximately corresponds to the pad's back plate of steel. The temperature range is sufficient. In comparison, the adhesive with which the brake pad is fastened to the back plate

It can be derived that the clamping forces branch as soon as they are induced into the back plate. One part of the clamping force flows over the finger respectively the pistons and another part over the stator. To be able to register the whole clamping force, it must be first measured in the friction material (Fig. 10) before it is introduced into the back plate. If the force would be registered on the piston, for example, the portion that flows over the stator could not be registered. This corresponds to the model concept of Fig. 3 that the piston force is not equivalent to the clamping force.

is resistant up to approx. 300°. These temperatures are reached only after various processes of braking at high speeds. For the planned researches high temperatures are reached at the brake disc only for a short time. The air cooling available at braking test benches is sufficient to keep the sensors in the permissible temperature field of application.

Fig. 15 shows the original brake pad compared to the Piezo prototype of the 2. generation.

CALIBRATION OF THE BRAKE PADS

STRUCTURE OF THE MEASURING BRAKE PAD: For the measuring of the point of application of load of the clamping force four piezo quartz sensors are built between the back plate and a support plate (Fig. 13).

The main difference between the original and the iPad is the steel plate and the reduction of the friction material's thickness connected to it. The expected low compression ability of the brake pad could be counteracted by a suitable choice of the friction material. This could be proved in a compression tester for brake pads. The pad shown had a deformation of 300 µm at a maximum testing pressure of 160 bar (with the original piston surface) - this value lies in the standard range of an European brake pad (11 and 19).

The calibration of the Piezo prototype is carried out on a calibrating station (Fig. 16) designed especially for this application case. With its help forces can be applied at the same time in two directions. With this construction forces can be applied to the brake pad one by one or simultaneously, statically or dynamically. For a defined force flow this occurs with the help of balls (recognizable at the arrowheads of the forces in Fig. 16).

Fig. 14 shows the real sensors on the adapter plate (the back plate was removed for this photograph). To determine the acting clamping force the aggregated signal of the four single forces is formed. The point of application of load is determined by a moment balance in the sensor measuring level.

TEST SETUP AND TEST PARAMETERS For the test execution the prepared brake pads were fitted into the caliper above correspondingly to Fig. 17. The following researches were carried out at the centrifugal force test bench of the industrial partner, the TMD Friction Ltd. (19) Fig. 18 left, as well as at the chair’s own roll test bench (Fig. 18 right). The same brake was used; the advantage of the use of a centrifugal force test bench is the better accessibility of the

components. The advantage of using a roll test bench is the nearer illustration of the reality, since parts of the original suspension are also used along with the wheel and the caliper’s motion is thus shown as well.

Fig. 18 left: Test execution on TMD brake test rig; right: test execution on FZD roll test rig The wirings of the eight piezo quartz sensors are led through the gap between stator and frame of the caliper to a charge amplifier. Further the temperature of the brake disc, the temperature of the sensors, the brake pressure, the speed and the braking torque are recorded. The reproduction of the vehicle parameters is carried out for the vehicle mass with the corresponding centrifugal force of the test bench. The air amount for the cooling of the components corresponds to the flow of a brake of an upper class vehicle. The following test parameters were chosen:

• Brake pressure: Series in 10 bar – steps from 0 to 60 bar (> 60 bar blocks the wheel) • Wheel speed 0 m/s (stationary wheel) and braking from 15 and 30 to 0 m/s • Brake disc’s temperature at the beginning of a braking < 100°C (to protect the sensors)

MOVEMENT OF THE BRAKE PAD REGARDING THE CENTRE OF THE BRAKE DISC The determination of the point of application of load of the clamping force is carried out with sensors which are in the brake pads. The centre of the wheel or the brake disc is regarded as a reference point of the radius. The design of a vehicle brake allows on the one hand movements of the caliper, on the other movements of the brake pads during a braking process.

For this reason it was necessary to develop a measurement method which enables recording the movement of a brake pad during a braking. Finally a visual measurement method was used with a resolution of 10.2 million pixel. With regard to the following photographs, a pixel corresponds to 0.124 mm - this therefore also corresponds to the maximum precision of this method. Fig. 19 shows exemplarily the movement of the finger-sided brake pad during a braking with a braking pressure of 40 bar.

RESULTS The indications of the positions of the sensors in the brake pad for the following results correspond to Fig. 20. The course of the four sensors of the piston-sided pad is exemplarily presented in Fig. 21 at a braking pressure of 40 bar and a stationary brake disc. In Fig. 22 is the course during a braking process with an initial speed of 15 m/s (425 rpm).

As expected, the brake pad is drawn in the direction of rotation. Furthermore, it easily screws out intake-sided correspondingly to the acting forces. Therefore, the sensors move outtake-sided insignificantly in the direction of the wheel's centre. For the determination of the point of application of load, which is near the middle of the pad's back plate, it means in this case a deviation of approx. 0.66 mm, which has to be added to the measured value. By using other caliper types this value can turn out considerably greater, since frame brakes are construction-relatedly considerably stiffer than e.g. simple finger brakes.

It can be derived that the outer sensors transfer the greater forces. This rises further at an increasing braking pressure – this corresponds to the model concept of expanding the caliper at increasing pressure. In Fig. 23 the results of the measurements for the stationary brake disc and for the braking with an initial speed of 30 m/s (850 rpm) at finger- and at piston-sided pad are summarized. The representation corresponds to Fig. 21 from the view on the back plate.

Fig. 23: Shifting of the point of application of load during a braking process It can be derived that the point of application of load moves by 7mm piston-sided to the outside by a stationary brake disc when the braking pressure rises from 10 to 60 bar. This effect is finger-sided by approx. 17mm clearly greater. This can be explained by the design of a brake (compare Fig. 4), since the brake is connected to the suspension piston-sided and so it is stiffer than the finger side, which has to be lead over the brake disc. During a braking process the points of application of load shift into the direction of the leading edge. This corresponds to the model concept according to (4), compare Fig. 3. If these results are transferred to the change of the friction radius, a rise of the braking torque by approx. 7% for

this brake by braking pressure of 60 bar. If one compares this result with the error analysis of the determination of the friction value of (6), who has determined a range of 10% for the tolerance band of the friction value under the assumption of a constant friction radius, these measurements confirm the assumption of (6) that the biggest error influence can be caused by the neglect of the change of the friction radius. CONCLUSION AND OUTLOOK The measurement device presented here enables for the first time the measuring of the amounts and points of application of the clamping forces during a braking process. The model concepts according to (4) and the enlarging of the caliper under brake pressure (Fig. 4) could be confirmed for this caliper. The sensor integration in the brake pad makes it possible to apply this design principle in almost every disc brake. Since smaller brakes have to transfer lower forces, smaller sensors could be used. By a measuring range from 0 to 15 kN the sensors’ diameter decreases from 30 to 16 mm (10). Among others, the benefit lays in the one-time determination of the change of the point of application of load for a defined caliper. Subsequently, this information can be used as a correction factor for test bench experiments and so some factors of the real friction coefficient can be determined more exactly. The measurement device can now also be examined for a uniform pressing of the brake pad on the brake disc during a braking process. Piezo quartz sensors are very suitable for high frequency measurements. Thus, changes in the clamping force can also be recorded in the range of squeal frequencies (up to approx. 20 kHz). Further benefit can be found for investigation of brake disc geometrical failures (e.g. run-out, disc thickness variation), which are reflected in changes of the point of application of load dependent on the speed. In such researches a kind of a circular movement of the point of application of load with a movement diameter of 1-2 mm was determined. This information could be very helpful for investigations of e.g. judder and variation of brake torque. According to the device shown shear sensors with identical measurements of the sensors used for direct measurement of the tangential forces as well. These researches are currently continued at the Automotive Engineering Department of Darmstadt FZD with the aim to determine the active friction radius with the help of the known braking torque from the test bench. The stacking of these sensors is also possible and thus the simultaneous measurement of the clamping and tangential component and therefore the direct determination of the brake pad on all four sensor positions. However, it is thereby problematic that the original thickness of the brake pads is exceeded and thus the brake in hand can be falsified in its features as e.g. the support of the forces. Nevertheless, in order to enable a measurement, the use of piezo ceramics is currently tested. These are considerably thinner (from 0.5 mm) and can also be used as shear and normal force sensors. Together with the less required space, the explicitly favorable lower costs should be mentioned. Disadvantageous are the relatively heavy losses of charge during a static load which possibly prevents a measurement of these quantities with piezo ceramics. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The authors would like to thank the TMD Friction Group for the outstanding cooperation and financing this research project.
