Abstract
Description
The present invention relates to the design of an apparatus for assembling ball joint assemblies. More specifically, the ball stud is mounted on the ball seat so as to be freely movable after the ball seat is seated on the inner surface of the socket for receiving the ball stud. In the process of fixing the ball stud on the socket, And a plug for caulking the socket is assembled using a jig.
Generally, ball joints are used for suspension and steering systems of automobiles. The ball joint is a part in which a ball stud having a spherical portion is rotatably coupled to a socket in which the seat is contained. When the ball stud is detached from the socket, the ball stud causes a serious safety problem of the vehicle. It should be firmly fixed.
In order to prevent the ball stud from being detached from the socket, a method of inserting a plug into one side of the ball seat embedded in the socket and caulking the bottom portion of the socket protruding around the lower side of the socket to the bottom surface of the plug .
By the caulking, the plug is stuck more firmly on the bottom surface of the ball seat, which acts as a resistance in the turning operation of the ball stud. That is, caulking should be performed with a stronger pressure in order to prevent the ball stud from escaping. However, when the degree of caulking is too great, the ball stud may not be pivoted and the rotation angle may be restricted and noise may be generated. .
In the conventional method of manufacturing the ball joint, the caulking proceeds in a state in which the caulking load and the caulking distance are set. However, even when caulking is performed to the same extent due to tolerance of each component constituting the ball joint, May be different from each other, so that the deviation of the torque of each ball joint produced becomes large.
As a conventional literature for suggesting a ball joint assembly system, reference may be made to Korean Patent No. 10-0951776 (Mar. 31, 2010) and Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 10-2011-0084806 (July 26, 2011). Although the above-described invention discloses a ball joint assembly system or a caulking device for manufacturing ball joints, the present invention can be applied to a method for stably maintaining the plug at a mounting point without swinging in a process of installing a plug provided between the ball seat and the socket, There is a limitation that it is not separately disclosed.

In the ball joint assembly apparatus of the present invention as described above, when the plug is installed on a mounting point using a jig in a process of installing a plug that is installed between a ball seat and a socket and performs a calking action, .
That is, according to the present invention, in a process of pressing a plug using a pre-pressurizing pusher coupled to the inside of the upper caulking jig by a tension adjusting unit and a coil spring or the like so as to be vertically slidable, The outer side of the plug is deformed through plastic working through the upper caulking jig excluding the pre-pressurizer, so that caulking between the ball seat and the socket can be stably performed.
The present invention eliminates the problem that the inside of the plug is lifted when the plug is caulked so that the ball seat can not be properly fixed on the socket.
