Description

本発明は、車輪用軸受装置に関するものである。   The present invention relates to a wheel bearing device.

自動車等の車両においては、車輪を回転自在に装着するために車輪用軸受装置（ハブユニット）が用いられている。この車輪用軸受装置は、車体側に固定される外輪と、外輪の内周側に転動体を介して回転自在に支持される内軸及び内輪、及び内軸の車両アウタ側の端部から径方向外方へ延びる車輪取付用のフランジ部を有するハブ軸とを備えている（例えば、特許文献１参照）。また、この車輪用軸受装置には、外輪と、内軸及び内輪との間の転動体の収容空間を密封する密封装置が、当該収容空間の軸方向両側に設けられている。   In a vehicle such as an automobile, a wheel bearing device (hub unit) is used to rotatably mount a wheel. This wheel bearing device includes an outer ring fixed to the vehicle body side, an inner shaft and an inner ring that are rotatably supported via a rolling element on the inner peripheral side of the outer ring, and a diameter from an end of the inner shaft on the vehicle outer side. And a hub shaft having a wheel mounting flange portion extending outward in the direction (see, for example, Patent Document 1). Further, in this wheel bearing device, sealing devices that seal the accommodation space of the rolling elements between the outer ring and the inner shaft and the inner ring are provided on both axial sides of the accommodation space.

車両アウタ側に配置される密封装置は、例えば図５に示すように、ラジアルリップ部１４２ｂとアキシャルリップ部１４２ｃとを有するシール部材１３１と、シール部材１３１の各リップ部１４２ｂ，１４２ｃが当接するスリンガ１３２とを備えている。スリンガ１３２は、内軸１２１の外周面に嵌合される円筒部１５１と、この円筒部１５１の車両アウタ側の端部から径方向外方へ延びる円板部１５２とを備え、内軸１２１の外周面からフランジ部１２２の車両インナ側の側面に沿って断面Ｌ字形状に形成されている。   For example, as shown in FIG. 5, the sealing device disposed on the vehicle outer side includes a seal member 131 having a radial lip portion 142 b and an axial lip portion 142 c, and a slinger where the lip portions 142 b and 142 c of the seal member 131 abut against each other. 132. The slinger 132 includes a cylindrical portion 151 fitted to the outer peripheral surface of the inner shaft 121, and a disk portion 152 that extends radially outward from an end of the cylindrical portion 151 on the vehicle outer side. An L-shaped cross section is formed along the side surface of the flange portion 122 on the vehicle inner side from the outer peripheral surface.

特開２０１４−９５４０３号公報JP 2014-95403 A

図５に示すスリンガ１３２は、ステンレス等の錆びにくい金属によって形成されている。また、スリンガ１３２は、各リップ部１４２ｂ，１４２ｃとの締め代のばらつきを抑えることで安定した密封性を確保している。
しかしながら、スリンガ１３２は、円筒部１５１が内軸１２１の外周面に嵌合されることによって内軸１２１に固定されるのみであるため、継続的な負荷振動により徐々に車両インナ側へ移動し、シール部材１３１に接近する可能性がある（図５の２点鎖線参照）。このようにスリンガ１３２が移動すると、フランジ部１２２とスリンガ１３２との対向面に隙間が生じ、当該対向面の間へ泥水や異物が侵入する可能性が高くなり、フランジ部１２２に腐食や錆が発生するおそれがある。 The slinger 132 shown in FIG. 5 is made of a rust-resistant metal such as stainless steel. In addition, the slinger 132 ensures stable sealing performance by suppressing variation in tightening allowance between the lip portions 142b and 142c.
However, since the slinger 132 is only fixed to the inner shaft 121 by fitting the cylindrical portion 151 to the outer peripheral surface of the inner shaft 121, the slinger 132 gradually moves toward the vehicle inner side due to continuous load vibration. There is a possibility of approaching the seal member 131 (see the two-dot chain line in FIG. 5). When the slinger 132 moves in this manner, a gap is formed on the facing surface between the flange portion 122 and the slinger 132, and there is a high possibility that muddy water or foreign matter may enter between the facing surfaces, and the flange portion 122 is corroded or rusted. May occur.

The seal body 42 includes a base portion 42a fixed to the cored bar 41, and a plurality of lip portions 42b and 42c protruding from the base portion 42a. The lip portions 42 b and 42 c include two radial lip portions 42 b that protrude radially inward toward the inner shaft 21 and one axial lip portion 42 c that protrudes toward the vehicle outer side toward the flange portion 22.

スリンガ３２は、錆びにくい性質を有する硬質な材料、例えばステンレス鋼により環状に形成されている。スリンガ３２は、円筒部５１と円板部５２とを備えている。円筒部５１は、円筒形状に形成され、内側軸部２０の外周面に嵌合されることによって内側軸部２０に固定されている。また、円筒部５１の外周面には、シール部材３１の２つのラジアルリップ部４２ｂが当接している。   The slinger 32 is formed in a ring shape from a hard material having a property of not easily rusting, for example, stainless steel. The slinger 32 includes a cylindrical portion 51 and a disc portion 52. The cylindrical portion 51 is formed in a cylindrical shape, and is fixed to the inner shaft portion 20 by being fitted to the outer peripheral surface of the inner shaft portion 20. In addition, two radial lip portions 42 b of the seal member 31 are in contact with the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical portion 51.

円板部５２は、円筒部５１の車両アウタ側の端部から径方向外方へ屈曲し、径方向に沿って形成された円環状の平板部材からなる。円板部５２は、フランジ部２２の車両インナ側の側面２４ａに沿って配置され、車両アウタ側の側面５２ａが、フランジ部２２の側面２４ａに対向し当接している。円板部５２の車両インナ側の側面には、シール部材３１のアキシャルリップ部４２ｃが当接している。
円筒部５１と円板部５２との境界部分５３は円弧状に湾曲している。この境界部分５３は、内側軸部２０とフランジ部２２との間の境界部分２３に沿い、当該境界部分２３に当接している。 The disc portion 52 is formed of an annular flat plate member that is bent radially outward from an end portion of the cylindrical portion 51 on the vehicle outer side and is formed along the radial direction. The disc portion 52 is disposed along the side surface 24 a on the vehicle inner side of the flange portion 22, and the side surface 52 a on the vehicle outer side faces and contacts the side surface 24 a of the flange portion 22. The axial lip portion 42c of the seal member 31 is in contact with the side surface of the disc portion 52 on the vehicle inner side.
A boundary portion 53 between the cylindrical portion 51 and the disc portion 52 is curved in an arc shape. The boundary portion 53 is in contact with the boundary portion 23 along the boundary portion 23 between the inner shaft portion 20 and the flange portion 22.

円板部５２の径方向外端部には、係合片５５が設けられている。この係合片５５は、円板部５２の径方向外端部から、車両アウタ側へ軸方向に沿って屈曲する第１屈曲部５６と、この第１屈曲部５６の車両アウタ側の端部から径方向内方へ屈曲する第２屈曲部５７とを有する。第２屈曲部５７は、第１屈曲部５６に対して鋭角に傾斜するように屈曲されている。すなわち、第２屈曲部５７は、第１屈曲部５６から径方向内方かつ車両インナ側へ向けて傾斜状に形成されている。したがって、第２屈曲部５７の外側面５７ａは、径方向内側かつ車両アウタ側に向いている。また、第２屈曲部５７の径方向内端部は、後述する被係合部２８の径方向外端部よりも径方向内側に配置され、第２屈曲部５７の径方向外端部は、被係合部２８の径方向外端部よりも径方向外側に配置されている。係合片５５は、円板部５２の外周部をプレス等により塑性加工することにより形成することができる。   An engagement piece 55 is provided at the radially outer end of the disc portion 52. The engaging piece 55 includes a first bent portion 56 that is bent along the axial direction from the radially outer end portion of the disc portion 52 toward the vehicle outer side, and an end portion of the first bent portion 56 on the vehicle outer side. And a second bent portion 57 bent inward in the radial direction. The second bent portion 57 is bent so as to incline at an acute angle with respect to the first bent portion 56. That is, the second bent portion 57 is formed in an inclined shape from the first bent portion 56 inward in the radial direction and toward the vehicle inner side. Therefore, the outer side surface 57a of the second bent portion 57 faces the radially inner side and the vehicle outer side. Further, the radially inner end of the second bent portion 57 is disposed radially inward from the radially outer end of the engaged portion 28 described later, and the radially outer end of the second bent portion 57 is The engagement portion 28 is disposed on the radially outer side of the radially outer end portion. The engagement piece 55 can be formed by plastic working the outer peripheral portion of the disc portion 52 with a press or the like.

フランジ部２２は、径方向内側の基部２４と、径方向外側の先端部２５とを備えている。基部２４は、その車両インナ側の側面２４ａがスリンガ３２の円板部５２に対向し当接する部分とされている。先端部２５は、基部２４の径方向外端部から径方向外方に延びた部分とされている。フランジ部２２の車両インナ側の側部には、基部２４と先端部２５との境界に相当する位置に段部２６が形成されている。この段部２６は、径方向外方に向く段差面２７を備えている。先端部２５の車両インナ側の側面２５ａは、段部２６によって基部２４の車両インナ側の側面２４ａよりも車両アウタ側に配置されている。   The flange portion 22 includes a base portion 24 on the radially inner side and a distal end portion 25 on the radially outer side. The base portion 24 is a portion in which the side surface 24 a on the vehicle inner side faces and contacts the disc portion 52 of the slinger 32. The distal end portion 25 is a portion extending radially outward from the radially outer end portion of the base portion 24. A step portion 26 is formed at a position corresponding to the boundary between the base portion 24 and the tip portion 25 on the side portion on the vehicle inner side of the flange portion 22. The step portion 26 includes a step surface 27 that faces radially outward. The side surface 25 a on the vehicle inner side of the tip end portion 25 is disposed on the vehicle outer side by the step portion 26 relative to the side surface 24 a on the vehicle inner side of the base portion 24.

段部２６の段差面２７には、径方向外方に突出する被係合部２８が形成されている。この被係合部２８は、段差面２７上において車両インナ側に偏った位置に形成され、被係合部２８と先端部２５の側面２５ａとの間には凹部が形成されている。
一方、スリンガ３２の円板部５２に形成された係合片５５の第２屈曲部５７は、被係合部２８と側面２５ａとの間の凹部内に挿入され、被係合部２８に対して車両アウタ側から係合している。つまり、第２屈曲部５７は、被係合部２８に係合する係合部を構成している。そのため、スリンガ３２は、車両インナ側への移動が規制される。 An engaged portion 28 that protrudes radially outward is formed on the step surface 27 of the step portion 26. The engaged portion 28 is formed at a position biased toward the vehicle inner side on the step surface 27, and a recess is formed between the engaged portion 28 and the side surface 25 a of the tip portion 25.
On the other hand, the second bent portion 57 of the engagement piece 55 formed in the disk portion 52 of the slinger 32 is inserted into the recess between the engaged portion 28 and the side surface 25a, and Engaged from the vehicle outer side. That is, the second bent portion 57 constitutes an engaging portion that engages with the engaged portion 28. Therefore, the slinger 32 is restricted from moving toward the vehicle inner side.

したがって、スリンガ３２に継続的な負荷振動が付与されたとしても、従来技術（図５参照）のように、スリンガ３２が車両インナ側へ移動してしまうことがなく、円板部５２がシール部材３１のアキシャルリップ部４２ｃに対して強く圧接することに起因するアキシャルリップ部４２ｃの摩耗やハブ軸１２の回転トルクの増大を抑制することができる。また、互いに対向するフランジ部２２の基部２４の車両インナ側の側面２４ａと、スリンガ３２の円板部５２の車両アウタ側の側面５２ａ（以下、これらの面を「対向面」ともいう）とに隙間が生じることを防止することができる。そのため、当該対向面２４ａ，５２ａの間への泥水や異物の侵入を防止することができ、当該対向面２４ａ，５２ａの間を介して外輪１１と内側軸部２０との間の環状空間Ｓに水が入り込んでしまうことも防止することができる。   Therefore, even if continuous load vibration is applied to the slinger 32, the slinger 32 does not move toward the vehicle inner side as in the prior art (see FIG. 5), and the disc portion 52 is the sealing member. The wear of the axial lip portion 42c and the increase in the rotational torque of the hub shaft 12 due to the strong pressure contact with the 31 axial lip portion 42c can be suppressed. Further, a side surface 24a on the vehicle inner side of the base portion 24 of the flange portion 22 facing each other and a side surface 52a on the vehicle outer side of the disk portion 52 of the slinger 32 (hereinafter, these surfaces are also referred to as “opposing surfaces”). A gap can be prevented from being generated. Therefore, intrusion of muddy water and foreign matter between the facing surfaces 24a and 52a can be prevented, and the annular space S between the outer ring 11 and the inner shaft portion 20 is interposed between the facing surfaces 24a and 52a. It is possible to prevent water from entering.

係合片５５の第１屈曲部５６は、フランジ部２２とスリンガ３２の円板部５２との対向面２４ａ，５２ａを径方向外側から覆っている。つまり、第１屈曲部５６は、前記対向面２４ａ，５２ａを径方向外側から覆う被覆部を構成している。この第１屈曲部５６によって、前記対向面２４ａ，５２ａの間への泥水や異物の侵入を防止することができる。   The first bent portion 56 of the engagement piece 55 covers the opposed surfaces 24a, 52a of the flange portion 22 and the disc portion 52 of the slinger 32 from the radially outer side. That is, the 1st bending part 56 comprises the coating | coated part which covers the said opposing surfaces 24a and 52a from a radial direction outer side. The first bent portion 56 can prevent muddy water and foreign matter from entering between the facing surfaces 24a and 52a.

係合片５５における第２屈曲部５７は、車両アウタ側の側面５７ａが、径方向内側に向くように傾斜している。そのため、内側軸部２０にスリンガ３２を装着するために、第２屈曲部５７の側面５７ａを被係合部２８の先端に当接させた状態でさらにスリンガ３２を車両アウタ側へ移動させたとき、第２屈曲部５７が被係合部２８を乗り越えやすくなる。これにより、第２屈曲部５７を被係合部２８に係合させ易くすることができ、内側軸部２０に対するスリンガ３２の組付性を向上させることができる。   The second bent portion 57 of the engagement piece 55 is inclined so that the side surface 57a on the vehicle outer side faces radially inward. Therefore, when the slinger 32 is further moved to the vehicle outer side with the side surface 57a of the second bent portion 57 in contact with the tip of the engaged portion 28 in order to mount the slinger 32 on the inner shaft portion 20. The second bent portion 57 can easily get over the engaged portion 28. Thereby, the 2nd bending part 57 can be easily engaged with the to-be-engaged part 28, and the assembly | attachment property of the slinger 32 with respect to the inner side shaft part 20 can be improved.

In the sealing device 15 of the present embodiment, the second bent portion (engagement portion) 57 of the engagement piece 55 of the slinger 32 is formed substantially perpendicularly along the radial direction. The second bent portion 57 is engaged with the engaged portion 28 of the flange portion 22 from the vehicle outer side. Therefore, the present embodiment has the same operational effects as the first embodiment.

また、本実施形態の被係合部２８は、頂面２８ａの外径が車両インナ側ほど小さくなるような傾斜面に形成されている。この頂面２８ａの車両インナ側の外径（最小径）は、第２屈曲部５７の径方向内端部の径と同じかこれよりも小さく、頂面２８ａの車両アウタ側の外径（最大径）は、第２屈曲部５７の径方向内端部の径よりも大きい。そのため、スリンガ３２を内側軸部２０に装着するために、第２屈曲部５７の先端を被係合部２８の頂面２８ａに当接させた状態でさらにスリンガ３２を車両アウタ側へ移動させたとき、第２屈曲部５７が被係合部２８を乗り越えやすくなる。これにより、第２屈曲部５７を被係合部２８に係合させ易くすることができ、内側軸部２０に対するスリンガ３２の組付性を向上させることができる。なお、係合片５５の第１屈曲部５６の径方向内側面と被係合部２８の頂面２８ａとの間には、第２の実施形態で説明したような第２のシール部材が設けられていてもよい。また、被係合部２８の頂面２８ａの傾斜は省略してもよい。   Further, the engaged portion 28 of the present embodiment is formed on an inclined surface such that the outer diameter of the top surface 28a becomes smaller toward the vehicle inner side. The outer diameter (minimum diameter) of the top surface 28a on the vehicle inner side is the same as or smaller than the diameter of the radially inner end of the second bent portion 57, and the outer diameter (maximum) of the top surface 28a on the vehicle outer side.
