Description

1 2352697 Stabilizer arrangement for a motor vehicle The invention relates
to a stabilizer arrangement for a motor vehicle, particularly but not exclusively a passenger car, for the coupling of two wheels of a vehicle axle, with a first stabilizer part assigned to one wheel and with a second stabilizer part assigned to the other wheel and also with an actuator which couples the stabilizer parts and which makes it possible to brace the stabilizer parts, the first stabilizer part being connected fixedly in terms of rotation to a first actuator connection and the second stabilizer part being connected fixedly in terms of rotation to a second actuator connection, and at least one of the stabilizer parts being connected to the associated actuator connection indirectly via a coupling member connected fixedly in terms of rotation to the stabilizer part by means of a materially integral joint. The invention also relates to a method for producing a stabilizer arrangement of this type.
A stabilizer serves, as a rule, for improving the lateral rolling behaviour in a vehicle, such a stabilizer arrangement being capable, in principle, of being used both in road vehicles and in rail vehicles. DE-C 11 05 290 discloses a stabilizer arrangement of the type mentioned in the introduction, which has a first stabilizer part assigned to one wheel and a second stabilizer part assigned to the other wheel. An actuator designed in a manner of a rotor/stator assembly couples the two stabilizer parts, the first stabilizer part being connected fixedly in terms of rotation to a first actuator connection, for example to the rotor, and the second stabilizer part being connected fixedly in terms of rotation to a second actuator connection, for example to the stator. As a result of controlled rotation between the rotor and stator, bracing or prestressing of the stabilizer parts can be applied in a directed way, with the result that roll stabilization of the vehicle can be achieved. Moreover, by means of such a stabilizer arrangement, it is possible, in principle, also to influence the pitch behaviour of the vehicle. Furthermore, a stabilizer arrangement of this type may also have the function of a level-adjusting device or of a jack.
In the abovementioned known stabilizer arrangement, the rotationally fixed connection between the actuator and the respective stabilizer part is made in each case via a toothing. In this instance an external toothing formed on the respective end of the stabilizers engages into an internal toothing formed on the respective actuator connection. In order to form such an external toothing on the stabilizer end, the stabilizer end first has to be upset, in order to achieve a thickening of material. Only then can the toothing be formed by means of 2 corresponding cutting machining. Such a procedure is relatively costly and is unsuitable for use in large series production.
The formation of such an axially running toothing for the rotationally fixed coupling of the stabilizer parts to the actuator is also shown in DE 44 43 809 Al and in DE 44 42 223 C2.
In DE 43 37 771 Al, the rotationally fixed coupling of a stabilizer part to the actuator is achieved by forming, on that end of the stabilizer part which is to be connected to the actuator, a flattened push-in plate which is introduced into a corresponding receiving slot in the respective actuator connection, tension screws being provided, which pass through the push-in plate transversely to the plate plane and brace it together with the actuator connection. This embodiment, too, is relatively costly for use in large series.
It is known from DE 43 37 813 Al to form on the respective end of the stabilizer part a disc-shaped flange which is then connected to the rotor of the actuator by means of an annular weld seam. In order to connect the stator, a disc-shaped flange is connected to the latter by means of an annular weld seam, to which flange is fastened a matching flange formed on the respective end of the associated stabilizer part. The production of welded joints of this kind is also relatively complicated.
The German patent application still unpublished on the filing date of the present invention and having the official file number 199 30 444.0 of 02. 07.1999 solves the problem of specifying, for a stabilizer arrangement of the type mentioned in the introduction, an embodiment which is suitable for production within the framework of large-series manufacture. For this purpose, at least one of the stabilizer parts is connected to the associated actuator connection indirectly via a coupling member connected fixedly in terms of rotation to the stabilizer part.
A particular advantage of this stabilizer arrangement may be seen in that differently constructed, shaped and designed stabilizer parts can always be connected to the same coupling members or to the same actuator connections, so that, to that extent, the multiplicity of parts can be reduced. These measures, in particular, make the logistics easier during large-series manufacture. It is considerably less expensive to produce the suitable coupling members, for example a flange or a profiled tenon, separately from corresponding blanks and to attach these to the end of the stabilizer part, for example by means of a frictionwelding method, than first to provide at the end of the stabilizer part, by means of an upsetting method or the like, the preconditions for forming a coupling member integrally shaped on the stabilizer part. Overall, production time and production costs can thereby be 3 saved, this having a particularly advantageous effect within the framework of large-series manufacture.
For a development of the known stabilizer arrangement, it is proposed to build the coupling member on the stabilizer part with the aid of a materially integral joint, for example a friction-welded joint or laserwelded joint. Depending on the three-dimensional extent of the stabilizer part, a connection method of this type may be relatively complicated to carry out.
The present invention is concerned with the problem of specifying, for a stabilizer arrangement of the type mentioned in the introduction, an embodiment in which the connection of the coupling member to the stabilizer part is simplified.
According to the present invention there is provided a stabilizer arrangement for a motor vehicle for the coupling of two wheels of a vehicle axle, with a first stabilizer part assigned to one wheel and with a second stabilizer part assigned to the other wheel and also with an actuator which couples the stabilizer parts and which makes it possible to brace the stabilizer parts, the first stabilizer part being connected fixedly in terms of rotation to a first actuator connection and the second stabilizer part being connected fixedly in terms of rotation to a second actuator connection, and at least one of the stabilizer parts being connected to the associated actuator connection indirectly via a coupling member connected fixedly in terms of rotation to the stabilizer part by means of a materially integral joint, wherein the coupling member has a receiving sleeve, into which an axial end of the associated stabilizer part is inserted coaxially, the materially integral joint for the rotationally fixed connection of the coupling member to the stabilizer part being formed by means of a soldered joint which extends at least between an inner surface of the receiving sleeve and an outer surface of the stabilizer part end, the said outer surface being surrounded by the receiving sleeve.
The present invention also provides a method for producing a stabilizer arrangement according to any one of the preceding claims, at least one of the stabilizer parts being connected fixedly in terms of rotation to the associated actuator connection of the actuator via the associated coupling member, wherein:
an axial end having an outer surface is formed on the stabilizer part, a receiving sleeve having an inner surface is formed on the coupling member a solder quantity is deposited on the stabilizer part end or on the coupling member in such a way that the solder is contiguous to the inner surface or to the outer surface, the stabilizer part end is inserted coaxially into the receiving sleeve, 4 the subassembly formed from the stabilizer part end and coupling member is exposed to a tempering method which involves heat treatment and which is controlled in such a way that the solder quantity melts and bonds in a materially integral manner both with the material of the inner surface and with the material of the outer surface, the soldered joint being formed completely when the tempering method is terminated.
The use of a soldered joint for connecting the coupling member to the stabilizer part makes the production of the stabilizer arrangement particularly simple, since heating to the soldering temperature merely has to be carried out in the region of the intended soldered joint. In a method according to the invention, the application of the soldering temperature for carrying out soldering is brought about by means of heat treatment which is carried out within a tempering method, so that, after the termination of the tempering, method, the soldered joint is also automatically formed. In comparison with a conventional procedure, in which the coupling member is first attached to the stabilizer part, for example by means of a welding method, and in which a tempering method for the subassembly composed of the stabilizer part and coupling member is carried out subsequently, a considerable advantage is afforded in the production of the stabilizer arrangement according to the invention. On the one hand, tools for making the connection, such as, for example, a welding appliance, can be dispensed with. Moreover, the necessary time spent in making the connection is avoided.
The soldered joint is formed between an inner surface of a receiving sleeve formed on the coupling member and an outer surface of an axial end of the associated stabilizer part, the stabilizer part end being inserted coaxially into the receiving sleeve. The receiving sleeve, inner surface, stabilizer part end and outer surface are preferably cylindrical, that is to say designed with an axially uniform cross-sectional geometry, in particular circularcylindrical. Particularly high-quality torque transmission is obtained when the soldered joint extends along the entire inner surface and along the entire outer surface, since force or torque transmission can thereby take place over a particularly large area. If the cross sections of the inner surface and outer surface are not circular-cylindrical, but, for example, elliptical or angular, force or torque coupling additionally takes place by means of positive connection.
Further important features and advantages of the stabilizer arrangement according to the invention and of the method according to the invention may be gathered from the subclaims, from the drawings and from the associated figure description with reference to the drawings.
It goes without saying that the features mentioned above and those yet to be explained below can be used not only in the combination specified in each case, but also in other combinations or alone, without departing from the scope of the present invention.
Preferred embodiments of the invention are illustrated in the drawings and are explained in more detail in the following description.
In the drawings, in each case diagrammatically, Figure I shows a view of a stabilizer arrangement, two stabilizer parts not yet having been connected to an associated actuator, Figure 2 shows a longitudinal section through a coupling member which is equipped according to the invention with a receiving sleeve and which is slipped on to an axial end of a stabilizer part, before a soldered joint is formed between the coupling member and stabilizer part, Figure 3 shows a view similar to that in Figure 2, but in another embodiment- of the coupling member, after the formation of the soldered joint, and Figure 4 shows a view similar to that in Figure 2, different embodiments being illustrated in the upper half (Figure 4a) and in the lower half (Figure 4b), in each case before the formation of the soldered joint.
According to Figure 1, the stabilizer arrangement I according to the invention consists of a first stabilizer part 2 which is assigned to a wheel, not illustrated, of a motor vehicle, likewise not illustrated. Moreover, the stabilizer arrangement 1 has a second stabilizer part 3 which is assigned to another wheel, likewise not illustrated, belonging to the same vehicle axle line. Furthermore, the stabilizer arrangement 1 comprises an actuator 4 which is preferably designed as a rotor/stator assembly. For the rotationally fixed connection of the stabilizer parts 2 and 3 to actuator connections, specifically a first actuator connection 5 and a second actuator connection 6, those ends 7 and 8 of the stabilizer parts 2 and 3 which face the actuator 4 are provided in each case with a coupling member, specifically a first coupling member 9 and a second coupling member 10.
In the present embodiment, the second coupling member 10 is formed by a, in particular, disc-shaped flange. For example, the flange-like second coupling member 10 is attached to the second actuator connection 6, which, for example, is a stator component, fixedly in terms of rotation by means of a corresponding screw connection.
In contrast to this, the first coupling member 9 is designed, for example, as a clamping bush which has an internal toothing I I on an axial side facing the first actuator connection 5. For the rotationally fixed connection of the clamping bush 9 to the actuator 4, 6 the first actuator connection 5 of the latter is designed as a shaft which is provided with an external toothing 12 complementary to the internal toothing I I of the clamping bush 9. In this case, the shaft 5 forms, for example, a rotor component of the actuator 4.
On an axial side facing the stabilizer part 2, the first coupling member 9 has a cylindrical receiving sleeve 13 which is slipped coaxially onto the cylindrical axial end 7 of the second stabilizer part 2 and which is connected fixedly in terms of rotation to the said end. According to the invention, this rotationally fixed connection is made by means of a soldered joint which is formed between the stabilizer part end 7 and the receiving sleeve 13. The terni soldered is intended also to encompass the technique of brazing.
The measures for forming this soldered joint are explained in more detail below.
According to Figures 2, 3, 4a and 4b, the receiving sleeve 13 has a cylindrical inner surface 14 which is arranged concentrically with respect to a longitudinal axis 23) of the coupling member 9 and which coaxially surrounds an outer surface 15 of the stabilizer part end 7. The outside diameter of the outer surface 15 and the inside diameter of the inner surface 14 are, in this case, coordinated with one another in such a way that, for the stabilizer bar end 7 inserted into the receiving sleeve 13, a slight press fit is formed which ensures, at least, a reliable transport of the assembled structural parts (2, 9). Moreover, grooves for accommodating fluxes may additionally be provided.
In the illustrations of Figures 2, 4a and 4b, the soldered joint between the coupling member 9 and the stabilizer part 2 is not yet formed. Before this soldered joint is formed, a predetermined solder quantity 16 is attached in the form of a solid body to the stabilizer part end 7 or to the coupling member 9, specifically in such a way that the solder quantity 16 is contiguous to or in contact with the inner surface 14 or the outer surface 15.
In the embodiment according to Figure 2, this solder quantity 16 is in the form of a ring which is slipped onto the stabilizer part end 7 contiguously to the receiving sleeve 13, the solder quantity 16 resting against the outer surface 15.
In the embodiment according to Figure 4a (the upper half of the illustration), the receiving sleeve 13 contains, in its inner surface 14, a depression 17 in the form of an annular groove, which serves as a solder repository and in which the solder quantity 16 is accommodated in the form of an annular solid body. In the embodiment according to Figure 4b (the lower half of the illustration), a depression 17' of this type may likewise be formed in the outer surface 15 of that end 7 of the stabilizer part 2 which projects into the receiving 7 sleeve 13. The solder quantity 16 is also accommodated in the form of an annular solid body in this depression 17'.
After the coupling member 9 has been slipped on to the stabilizer part 2, a tempering method with heat treatment, in particular with hardening and annealing, is carried out for the subassembly formed from the stabilizer part 2 and coupling member 9. Within the framework of this tempering method, the assembled components (stabilizer part 2 and coupling member 9) are heated. This heating is, in this case, selected in such a way that the solder quantity 16 melts.
Even during high-grade surface machining, gaps, cavities, clearances and voids are formed, even when there is a slight press fit, in a cylindrical overlap region which extends axially between the inner surface 14 and outer surface 15. The liquid solder comes into contact with this overlap region, whereupon the solder, when sufficiently liquefied, penetrates into this overlap region due to the capillary action taking place and is distributed between the inner surface 14 and outer surface 15. At a sufficient temperature, the solder makes a materially integral joint both with the material of the inner surface 14 and with the material of the outer surface 15. By a materially integral joint is meant, here, a connection involving a material interlocking (melting together, crosslinking, diffusion) of the solder material with the material of the outer surface 15 and of the inner surface 14. The fusion or interaction of the materials which is achieved at the same time corresponds, here, essentially to a connection which, for example, also occurs during welding.
To improve the soldering method, fluxes may also be used, which are applied in a suitable way, for example to the inner surface 14 and the outer surface 15. Fluxes of this type reduce oxide layers on the material surface and are conducive to the formation of a materially integral joint between the solder and material. When the material is being wetted by the solder, the flux is displaced, and corresponding outflow possibilities, for example channels, grooves, orifices, may be provided in the stabilizer part end 7 and/or in the receiving sleeve 13.
After the melt has solidified, that is to say after the tempering method, there is between the coupling member 9 and stabilizer part 2 a highly effective large-area soldered joint which is illustrated symbolically in Figure 3 by a thickened line 18. If the solder quantity deposited on the coupling member 9 or on the stabilizer part 2 is selected appropriately, this soldered joint 18 may be formed in such a way that it extends along the entire inner surface 14 or along the entire outer surface 15. The soldered joint 18 may likewise also extend as far as 8 an end face 19 of the stabilizer part end 7 and a seat face 20, on which the end faces 19 are supported in the receiving sleeve 13.
The depressions 17 and 17' for forming a solder repository, which are illustrated by way of example in Figures 4a and 4b, may also be formed at another, suitable point on the stabilizer part 2 or on the coupling member 9, this point being contiguous to the inner surface 14 and/or to the outer surface 15.
As may be gathered from Figures 2 to 4, how the coupling member 9 is connected to the actuator 4 is irrespective of the connection of the coupling member 9 to the stabilizer part 2. Accordingly, the coupling member 9 according to Figure 2 is provided with the internal toothing 11, whilst the coupling member 9 of Figures 4a and 4b may be equipped with an external toothing 21, in order to connect the coupling member 9 fixedly in terms of rotation to the actuator 4. It is likewise possible to equip the coupling member 9 according to Figure 3 with a flange 22 or to design the coupling member as a flange. Correspondingly, the coupling member 10 illustrated on the right in Figure I may also be connected to the associated stabilizer part 3 by means of the soldered joint according to the invention; this is indicated in Figure 3 by the stabilizer part being given the reference symbols 2 and 3 and the coupling member the reference symbols 9 and 10.
If the tempering method is controlled appropriately or operated appropriately, the soldered joint 18 formed as a result is essentially free.of stresses, so that any remachining of the soldered joint 18 in this regard may be dispensed with.
It is clear that the composition of the solder or brazing compound depends on the material of the stabilizer part 2, on the material of the coupling member 9 and on the tempering temperature and tempering time. The tempering method may also be adapted to the requirements of the soldered joint.
