Abstract

PURPOSE:To make it possible to take the balance of a propeller shaft by setting unbalancing correcting surfaces in a first shaft section and a second shaft section which are located with a viscous joint being positioned therebetween, and by welding balance weights thereto. CONSTITUTION:First and second shaft sections 35a, 35b which are located with a viscous joint therebetween are supported by bearings 50, 52, and are rotated at different rotational speeds. Amounts of unbalance of correcting surfaces E, F of the first and second shaft sections 35a, 35b are obtained from data of vibration from both bearings 50, 52, and thereafter the unbalance is corrected.

(Prior technology) For example, the natural frequency of the propeller shaft that drives the rear wheels of a car decreases as its length increases. In this case, in view of the current situation where the overall length of propeller shafts is increasing, the blower shaft should be assembled into an assembly of multiple short shafts and multiple universal joints, in order to avoid the possibility of propeller shaft resonance. May be configured.

The propeller shaft 10, which is assembled by connecting the four universal joints 14, 15, 16, and 17, is supported by four bearings 18, 19, 20, and 21. Then, for example, the universal joint 14 is connected to an electric motor to rotate the propeller shaft 10, and vibrations are measured at the bearings 18, 19, 20, 21. Based on this measurement result, the propeller shaft 10 is modified in four modification planes A, B, C%D.

In order to rotate a propeller shaft formed by connecting two shafts with three universal joints, it must be supported by three bearings, the same number as the number of universal joints. Additionally, three correction planes are required to correct the moment balance. A propeller shaft made up of an assembly of four shafts connected by five universal joints similarly requires five correction surfaces. As is clear from the above, in order to balance the propeller shaft as an assembly with a minimum of man-hours, the propeller shaft needs to be modified with the same number of modification surfaces as the universal joints or bearings.

By the way, in part-time four-wheel drive vehicles, a differential device is usually built into the propeller shaft, and the difference in rotational speed that occurs between the front and rear wheels during four-wheel drive is absorbed by the differential, and the four-wheel drive When there is no need for wheel running, the surface differential is disconnected from the drive source, but with this, the driver must manually operate the differential each time the differential is connected or disconnected. In order to eliminate this complexity, a method of incorporating a viscous joint in place of the differential device is sometimes adopted (Motor Fan, November 1986 issue, p. 3).

(Problem to be Solved by the Invention) A propeller shaft incorporating a viscous joint differs from a normal propeller shaft in that the parts located before and after the viscous joint are structurally independent. There is an imbalance in the front and back. As a result, when an attempt is made to balance this propeller shaft in an assembled state according to the above-mentioned balancing method, the viscous joint moves differentially, and the unbalanced phase of the propeller shaft portion facing the plane differs. In this case, it is not possible to achieve balance while keeping the unbalanced phase relationship constant.

In the vehicle described in the magazine that incorporates a viscous joint into a professional spatula shaft, it is impossible to balance the assembly as a result of using a small-diameter solid shaft that is inherently less unbalanced as the shaft in which the viscous joint should be installed. It makes up for the disadvantage.

However, the use of a small diameter solid shaft also makes it difficult to divide the propeller shaft into, for example, a forward section containing a viscous joint and a rear section without a viscous joint, and to balance each separately. This is because balancing is usually done by welding balance weights to the shaft.If the shaft diameter is small, a large balance weight is required, but this is balanced and welded to the outer circumference of the shaft with a small diameter. This is because it is difficult.

Furthermore, even if a small-diameter solid shaft is used, the unbalance will not disappear; if the phase of the unbalance at the surface of the viscous m'r- changes due to the differential of the viscous joint, the unbalance will remain as the phase changes. The unbalance fluctuates greatly, causing vibration and noise.

That is, the bearings 50 and 5 located before and after the viscous joint 46
2 means that vibrations at 4000 rpm and 395 Orpm can be detected separately. Therefore, from the vibration data of 4000 rpm of bearing 54.50.52, the unbalance amount of correction surfaces G, H and E was determined from the 395 Orp of bearing 50.52.56.
The amount of unbalance of the correction surfaces F, ■, and J can be determined from the vibration data of m. This makes it possible to make six-sided corrections in the assembled state of the propeller shaft 30 incorporating the viscous fibers 46.
