The safety and reliability of railway vehicle braking system is put forward higher requirement for railway speed increasing. Compared with domestic product, foreign disc brake unit has obvious advantage on compactness of structure, stability of braking pad friction coefficient, braking power, safety and reliability etc. Thus, the research has theoretical significance and engineering value. Firstly, the working principle of disc brake unit is obtained by performing spatial mechanisms analysis of some imported disc brake unit and adjuster structure, then using MBD (Multi-body Dynamics) simulation software, by importing the geometric model of brake unit into RecurDyn, to make preprocess of simplifying and merging and add constraints and contact relation, driving control functions, etc, finally to establish a simulation experiment model. The working characteristic of the brake unit and adjuster's displacement curve of clearance compensation is obtained through the braking and releasing simulation results of braking pad before and after wear out. The research results provide a method based on virtual prototype for analyzing and validating working mechanism of disc brake unit.
