The invention discloses a
brake disc type
braking system of a traction type soil tank experimental platform. The
brake disc type
braking system comprises a rack, a traction wire rolling roller, a
brake disc, a braking mechanism and a control module. The traction wire rolling roller is mounted on the rack through a bearing pedestal, and a rotating speed
measuring instrument is mounted on a rotary shaft of the traction wire rolling roller. The rotating speed
measuring instrument and the control module are in communication through a cable, and a speed measuring ring of the rotating speed
measuring instrument and the rotary shaft synchronously rotate. The braking mechanism comprises a
linear motor, a pull rod, a pressing rod, a first
hydraulic cylinder and a braking module. The braking module comprises a shell, a second
hydraulic cylinder, a reset spring, a first
brake pad and a second
brake pad. The invention further discloses a braking method of the brake disc type
braking system of the traction type soil tank experimental platform. The magnitude of braking force can be controlled; on the one hand, stopping of an experimental platform trolley is guaranteed; and on the other hand, stable braking of the platform trolley is guaranteed, and braking
impact force is reduced to the minimum to guarantee the safety of a sensor and other detecting equipment.
