Abstract

In this study, a new check valve was studied to improve the load pressure of a brake system with a small piezoelectric-hydraulic pump. During the pressurization process, the steady-state pressure at the load is affected by the ratio of the cross-sectional area of the check valve the chamber pressure and load pressure. Since the flow path cover of the check valve is made wider than the cross-sectional area of the output flow to prevent backflow, a method of reducing the area ratio is proposed for a higher load pressure by mounting an additional mass to a thin plate spring type check valve. To identify the effect of mounting an additional mass to the existing check valve on the load pressure, a simple brake system with a small piezoelectric-hydraulic pump was modeled using a commercial code AMESim. The AMESim modeling was verified by comparing the simulation results with the experimental results of the pump the existing check valve. The additional mass was added to the verified AMESim modeling and higher load pressure was able to be obtained through simulation. The 35% performance improvement in load pressure identified by carrying out pressurization test of the brake system after adopting the new check valve the small piezoelectric-hydraulic pump.

본 연구에서는 소형 압전유압펌프가 적용된 브레이크 시스템의 부하압 개선을 위해 체크밸브에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 가압 과정에서 부하의 정상상태 압력은 챔버압과 부하압이 체크밸브에 작용하는 단면적 비에 영향을 받는다. 체크밸브 유로 덮개는 역류 방지를 위해 유로의 단면적보다 넓게 제작되었기 때문에 단면적 비 조절을 위해 박판 스프링 형 체크밸브에 부가질량을 부착하는 방식을 제안하였다. 부가질량 부착에 의한 부하압 개선 효과를 확인하기 위해 상용코드를 이용하여 소형 압전유압펌프가 적용된 단순 브레이크 시스템의 모델링을 수행하였다. 모델링의 검증을 위해 부가질량이 부착되지 않은 박판 스프링 형 체크밸브를 적용한 펌프의 가압 실험결과와 시뮬레이션 결과를 비교하였다. 검증된 아메심 모델링에 부가질량을 추가하였고 시뮬레이션을 통해 단면적 비 조절에 의한 고 부하압 형성 효과를 확인하였다. 부가질량 추가에 따른 소형 압전유압펌프 구성품을 새롭게 설계/제작한 후 브레이크 시스템의 가압 성능 실험을 수행하여 부하압 35% 의 성능 개선을 확인하였다.
