Description

A kind of structure of constant velocity universal joint
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of constant velocity universal joint ball cage new structure, specifically is a kind of novel assembly structure that is used for the constant velocity universal joint ball cage of automobile chassis drive system system.
Background technique
Automobile is the mechanical part that is contained in transmitting movement and moment of torsion between automobile differential or terminal reduction gear and the wheel with the constant velocity universal joint assembly, by two covers or a cover output shaft and input shaft to equal 1 instantaneous angular velocity than the transmitting movement of forming by constant velocity universal joint, jack shaft and other component of transmitting movement and moment of torsion, and the mechanical part of the energy synchronous change operating angle and the slippage of stretching.
Rzeppa universal joint is the constant velocity universal joint that is most widely used at present.Respectively have on the ball surface of the internal surface of spherical shell and star sleeve along equally distributed six the concentric arc raceways of circumference, six power transmission steel balls are housed between them, these steel balls are remained in the same plane by retainer.The raceway of spherical shell and star sleeve do decentraction, make its center of circle depart from the universal joint center symmetrically.Like this, even the between centers angle is 0 °, the intersection of inner, outer meridian raceway also can fix on the tram with steel ball.When the between centers angle was 0 °, the angle of the steel ball centrode of inside and outside raceway decision was a bit larger tham 11 °, and this is the minimum angles that can determine the steel ball tram reliably.The transverse section of raceway is oval, the line of the point of contact and the centre of sphere and the radial line angle at 45 of crossing the centre of sphere, oval 1.03~1.05 times of electing the steel ball radius in the radius of curvature at point of contact place as.When stand under load, the point of contact of steel ball and raceway is actually oval contact area.Since when work steel ball each direction transmitting torque of all having an opportunity, and because the cooperation of steel ball and ball cage is spherical, so should give enough attention to the lubricated effectiveness in the working procedure.The use of oiling agent depends primarily on the rotating speed and the angle of transmission, during up to 1500r/min, generally uses anti-corrosive grease at rotating speed, if when rotating speed and angle are all big, then uses lubricant oil.Reasonable method is to adopt oil bath and circulating oil lubrication, and should adopt multi-form seal arrangement according to the size of driving angle.The operating angle that this universal joint allows reaches 42 °, and limit interaxial angle can reach 45 °.Because six steel balls are worked simultaneously during transmitting torque, its bearing capacity and shock-resistant ability are strong, and efficient is higher, and compact dimensions is easy for installation.But the accuracy of manufacturing height of sphere that is in contact with one another and raceway, cost is higher.
The constant velocity universal joint working principle: when jack shaft (driving shaft) and outside when angle changes between the ball seat axle (driven shaft), power transmission steel ball center is positioned on the bisector plane of two crossed axis angles all the time, and the distance to two axial lines equates, thereby has guaranteed the angular velocity rotation of master and slave moving axis to equate.
The constant velocity universal joint of prior art, its structure is that spherical shell inner ball surface circular arc is identical with retainer outer spherical surface circular arc, both closely cooperate, retainer inner ball surface circular arc is identical with star sleeve outer spherical surface circular arc, both closely cooperate, on the retainer circumference, in uniform six windows a steel ball is installed respectively, move in the arc raceway that the corresponding raceway groove with star sleeve of raceway groove forms in spherical shell, the steel ball center is positioned on the bisector plane of two crossed axis angles all the time, by arc raceway inwall transmitting torque, guarantee of the angular velocity rotation of master and slave moving axis to equate.
Need frequent changes operating angle and speed based on constant velocity universal joint in running, and because of the Environmental Conditions difference, it is smooth and easy fluent, not easy to wear to require it to cooperate at aspect of performance, bearing capacity and shock-resistant ability are strong.
The constant velocity universal joint of prior art is because of the spherical shell inner ball surface closely contacts with the retainer outer spherical surface, the retainer inner ball surface closely contacts with the star sleeve outer spherical surface, and retainer self thickness is less, intensity is also little, particularly the intermediate portion ring is evenly distributed in six windows that are used to install steel ball, causes the retainer intermediate portion more fragile.Have following defective: wearing and tearing are bigger and inhomogeneous between spherical shell and retainer surface of contact, retainer and the star sleeve surface of contact, cause in the running unstable, produce abnormal sound or retardance, retainer is easily cracked, objectively reduced the working life of constant velocity universal joint assembly, prior art ball cage bug list cooperation now has some setbacks, and abnormal sound, retardance are arranged, and it is cracked that catastrophe failure shows as retainer.
Summary of the invention
The objective of the invention is to provide a kind of constant velocity universal joint of new structure, the constant velocity universal joint of preparation is high lubricating effect compared with prior art, and it is little to wear and tear, and is easy to assembling, low cost of manufacture, and combination property is better, longer service life.
For realizing purpose of the present invention, technical solution of the present invention is, novel structural design between a kind of constant velocity universal joint build-up member is provided, and changes build-up member contact position each other, reaches the purpose that improves the constant velocity universal joint combination property.Constant velocity universal joint is assembled by spherical shell, retainer, star sleeve and steel ball, and little based on retainer thickness, bulk strength is relatively low, and the intermediate portion is uniformly distributed with six hollow windows along the circumference and is used to install steel ball, and the intermediate portion is more fragile relatively.So ball cage new structure is around reducing the retainer wearing and tearing, keep its intensity and launch, embodiment is by changing the surface of contact circular arc of retainer, star sleeve, increase the gap between retainer intermediate portion and spherical shell inner ball surface and the star sleeve outer spherical surface, reach and reduce wearing and tearing, promote and lubricate, keep the purpose of intensity.
The constant velocity universal joint of employing the present invention preparation compared with prior art has the following advantages:
Owing to change retainer surface of contact circular arc and star sleeve ectosphere surface of contact circular arc, increased the gap between retainer intermediate portion and spherical shell and the star sleeve, the fragile relatively zone line of retainer has been avoided contacting with the spherical shell inner ball surface, also avoided contacting with the star sleeve outer spherical surface, thereby avoided wearing and tearing, kept bulk strength.Because of zone line gap between the three increases, be beneficial to the lubricating grease uniformly dispersing simultaneously, promote the lubricated effectiveness of constant velocity universal joint inner chamber, promoted combination property, the assembly torsional fatigue strength increases more than 20%, and the rate of fault reduction, has prolonged working life.By changing the surface of contact circular arc, reduce the requirement of parts accuracy of manufacturing relatively simultaneously, be easy to processing and assembling, reduced manufacture cost.
Owing to adopt new structure, promoted combination property, obtain the constant velocity universal joint of high quality, longer service life, thereby reduced the automobile user cost working life of having improved the CV joint for car assembly.Simultaneously, adopt the solution of the present invention, working process and technology controlling and process are reliable and easy to implement.
