Description

Separation Bearings {DISENGAGEMENT BEARING}

The invention relates in particular to a separate bearing for a clutch in an automobile. The device having this structural form is made of one or more bearing rings, bearing shells that rotate at the speed of the clutch, which are firmly mounted to rotate in the sliding sleeve, the roll being received between the two structures and rotating around the same axis of rotation. This displacement of the separation bearing causes deflection of the leaf spring and deflection of the leaf spring controls the connection and disconnection of the clutch. This disconnection action takes place via a manually actuated clutch pedal or an automatic actuation system and in the case of manual actuation the movement of the pedal can be transmitted to the guide tube of the detachable bearing via the Bowden cable and the release lever. Other manual and automatic actuation systems are hydraulically actuated. It consists of a main cylinder and a longitudinal cylinder connected by hydraulic leads. When operating the main cylinder, the equally arranged pressurized fluid is transferred to the longitudinal cylinder via the hydraulic lead, causing the axial movement of the separation bearing.

The structure of the split bearing is almost identical to that of the axial bearing or the inclined ball bearing, each bearing ring comprising an angled flange portion mounted perpendicular to the axis of symmetry of the split bearing. The bearing ring is rotatably connected with the actuating member that can move axially through the flange portion. The leaf spring tongue or release lever of the clutch is supported at the flange portion of the circumferential bearing ring aligned with the clutch.

The bearings have seals to prevent dust and impurities from entering the separation bearings, which prevent lubricants from escaping from the separation bearings.

When installed, the separation bearings may be subjected to tongue shocks, ie axial shocks of the leaf springs, which increase wear on the separation bearings and thus reduce their service life. One condition of the production method and the axial impact caused by the clutch leaf springs causes a problem in sealing and deteriorates comfort in the case of the separation system described above.

Since the separate bearings can wear more and the vibrations reduce their comfort, the two drive components separated by the clutch between the force-transfer axes that must be compensated by the self-centering function of the separate bearings are parallel in the axial direction. It includes a stagger.

Several proposals have been made to compensate for the shortcomings of the axial stagger of the tongue impact and force-transfer axes.

DE U 72 45 141 describes a separate bearing assembly with a center ring mounted between the spring tongue of the leaf spring and the inner ring of the separating bearing. This contact bearing face is made in the form of a sphere between the inner ring and the center ring, which center ring is aligned by sliding movement against the inner ring of the separating bearing. The disadvantage of this method is the lack of radial compensation parallel to the axial direction in the form of radial auto-center so that the force-transfer axis cannot be compensated. And the above-described type of separate bearing may fall around the ball center of the ball-shaped center ring. This is because the separating bearing is mounted along the axial height by means of an elastic ring so that irregular running and hence vibration can be expected. The structure of a separate bearing in the form of a solid structural part made by the stock-removal method requires large space and increased intrinsic weight.

The arrangement of the self-centering separate bearing is shown in US Pat. No. 4,555,007. The outer bearing ring of the separable bearing, which is firmly rotatably mounted, is rotatably fixed to the separable bearing and supported radially movable in the connected housing. The housing is fully engaged outside of the perimeter of the separation bearing and extends axially parallel along the axis of symmetry of the separation bearing, and the outer arm of the housing has a sealing seal at its free end with a radially inward sealing seal in two parts. It forms a labyrinth seal with an inner ring of the configured rolling bearing. This arrangement does not allow displacement and rotational movement of the separating bearing portion to compensate for tongue shock of the leaf spring tongue.

The object of the invention is that the separating bearing can compensate for the tongue impact of the leaf spring tongue and the staggers parallel in the axial direction of the power-transfer axis and the other influences that can contribute to the stagger between the two axes. To make a separate bearing. Separate bearings also take up less space and can be manufactured at lower cost compared to the prior art.

This is achieved by a separate bearing according to the invention, which is guided between the two components as well as between the bearing ring and the rotating bearing shell, which is securely mounted on the sliding sleeve, as a rolling body rotating around the same axis of rotation. And a region having complementary ball surface segments provided between the leaf spring and the separating bearing included in the clutch, the first region having the ball surface segment being provided directly or indirectly on the leaf spring and having the ball surface segment The two zones are provided directly or indirectly on the separation bearing and the ball surface segment radius of curvature intersects the common axis of rotation provided by the roll of the separation bearing and the separation bearing is centered parallel to the axis of rotation.

It is also advantageous if the components with the ball surface segment can rotate relative to one another without the activation of the resetting forces that can be generated in the turning area via stops.

The structure of the separating bearing according to the invention provides a bearing ring formed in two parts, in which the clutch leaf spring or leaf spring tongue of the friction clutch is supported. The circumferential bearing ring has a bearing shell for guiding the roll and a flange supported on the bearing shell and interacting with the spring tongue, the flange and the bearing shell forming complementary ball surface segments. The bearing ring portion forming the support flange is separated from the component to which the roll is guided. With the bearing ring divided according to the invention, a single adjustment of the divided bearing ring, ie the movement of the flange relative to the bearing shell, takes place in the installed state with the axial impact of the clutch leaf spring, which is a production method condition. The forcing accompanying by the axial impact is kept away from the separate bearing, thus achieving optimal round running of the rolling bearing.

The self-adjusting rotary bearing ring of the separation bearing according to the invention effectively prevents the undesirable separation of the clutch accompanying from axial impact. The structure of the bearing ring made of two parts according to the invention can be used for the pulling and pressing action of the friction clutch.

The present invention includes a closed separate bearing, i.e. a closed piece arranged on each side of the roll. This prevents impurities from entering the interior of the separating bearing, ie the guide track of the rolling bearing. At the same time, the closed charge prevents the lubricant from flowing out of the separation bearing.

Other improvements are provided so that the free end of the sealing disc can be guided to the flange while maintaining the sealing gap so that the sealing disc can be mounted to the bearing ring to seal the interior of the separating bearing.

The sealing disc can be made without cutting into sheet metal and has an L-shaped cross section so that the short arms can be aligned on the cylindrical arms under pretension while keeping the ring gap radial in the direction of the bearing ring.

The component part of the circumferential bearing made of two parts is supported at the bent contact area. When a tilting force is applied from the clutch leaf spring to the flange of the bearing ring, a constant movement occurs with respect to the bearing ring. Curved contact areas should be made of a material suitable for the amount of force generated and the materials used should be considered, which reduces wear and extends service life.

The compensating function according to the invention of the divided circumferential bearing ring enables the optimal transmission of the force, which has a positive effect on the service life of the separate bearing. This action is achieved by dividing the bearing ring into a bearing shell to guide the roll and by dividing the bearing ring into the flange portion where the spring tongue of the clutch leaf spring is guided. The bearing shell includes a contact area on a face spaced from the track of the roll, the flange being supported at the contact area. In addition to the flanges, the bearing shells are made complementary to the ball segments in the contact area and are arranged concentrically with each other so that in the installed position the flanges can slide along the curvature in the bearing shells. Since the bearing shell and flange portion each form a ball segment of the contact area, the self-adjustment of the two-part circumferential bearing ring is improved. This configuration allows the flange to slide more easily as required along the curved contact bearing face on the bearing shell when axial or spring tongue impact occurs.

Another form of the present invention provides a bearing shell having a thin wall made of steel without cutting and inserted into a flange portion surrounding the bearing shell. The flange portion has a positioning portion that is adapted to the outer curvature of the bearing shell and forms a contact area that allows the flange to slide along the curvature of the bearing shell.

A rotation angle β of ± 10 degrees, preferably ± 1.5 degrees, is sufficient as the angle by which the flange can rotate relative to the bearing shell in the case of a circumferential bearing ring divided according to the invention. The present invention includes a contact area treated with anti-friction means as a support means that allows the flange to slide in the bearing shell with reduced friction.

According to the invention the inner bearing ring or the outer bearing ring is formed as a divided circumferential bearing ring. The invention does not affect the placement of the area with the ball surface segment and the installation position of the bearing ring of the separating bearing. For example, an area with a second ball face segment may be formed from a bearing shell, and an area forming the ball face segment may be disposed radially inward or outward along the circumference formed by the roll and the first ball face segment The region with can be formed out of the flange or directly in the leaf spring.

The present invention relates to the position of the contact between the bearing shell and the flange portion. It is arranged in accordance with the invention in the projection of the pressure line and the projection of the pressure line connects the bearing spring securely mounted so as to rotate with the two contact points of the roll on the bearing shell and extends through the center point of the roll so that the radius of curvature is Intersect the axis of rotation defined by the roll. This bearing transfers the force from the flange portion to the separate bearing.

As a preferred embodiment the invention comprises a bearing shell which surrounds the ball-shaped roll at an angle of less than 100 degrees. The flange, in turn, completely surrounds the bearing shell. A stop is provided in the locator of the flange spaced from the end of the bearing shell to limit the rotational movement of the flange portion with respect to the bearing shell with a thin wall.

The present invention includes a method of making a pre-assembled separate bearing. A retaining member is used for this purpose, the retaining member being secured to the bearing ring and engaged around the bearing ring so that it is easily movable and connected by a key. It is possible to obtain a separate bearing unit which cannot be lost with the retaining member according to the invention, through which the assembly can be simplified and cost-effectively stored.

According to the invention the separate bearing comprises a bearing ring which can be made of sheet metal without cutting, for example by a deep drawing process, can be mass produced in a cost effective and reliable process. The same prerequisites apply to making and using all the remaining components, for example retaining members.

According to a preferred embodiment of the invention it is proposed to fix the retaining member or retaining ring to the rotatably fixed bearing ring of the separate bearing. The free end of the retaining member surrounds the cross section of the circumferential bearing ring while maintaining a constant ring gap. The free end of the retaining member is radially spaced and follows the outer contour of the radial stepped cross section of the bearing ring, so that the two bearing rings are firmly fixed in order to make a pre-assembled unit of the totally separated bearing. The retaining member serves to seal the gap between the bearing rings, effectively preventing all kinds of dust and impurities from entering the separation bearing.

Another example of the invention provides a retaining member fixed to a flange or bearing shell of a divided bearing ring and the free end engages the connected components of the divided bearing ring. This type of retaining member has radially aligned edges which engage radially with respect to the free end of the bearing ring to provide a preassembly unit.

Suitable retaining members are preferably components made of sheet metal without cutting by the deep drawing process. For fixing, this structural part can be fixed by press fit or welding. In the installed state the retaining member has sufficient elasticity so that the radial stepped section can be radially discharged and positively secure each component during assembly of the bearing ring.

The present invention includes a sealing piece mounted on the face of the roll away from the retaining member to provide a seal on both sides of the separate bearing interior space. Sealing discs are suitable for this, which are rigidly mounted to allow the bearing to rotate and are guided to the opposite bearing ring while maintaining a constant ring clearance. This type of sealing disc is a component made of sheet metal without cutting and having an L-shaped cross section. The short arm of the sealing disc is supported in a bearing ring firmly mounted to be able to rotate under pretension. The long arm of the sealing disc connects the distance between the two bearing rings. In order to obtain a labyrinth such as a sealing gap between the sealing disc and the rotating bearing ring, the free end of the sealing disc is mounted parallel to the vertically aligned cross section of the rotating bearing ring. This form extends into the sealing gap, increasing the sealing efficiency.

According to another idea of the invention, a separate bearing is proposed in which the bearing shell and the flange are linearly contacted and shaped into components supported against each other. The displacement and rotational movement of the flange relative to the bearing ring is on the curvature of the bearing ring forming a linear guide.

The arm 17 angled against the spring tongue 15 has a radially outwardly rounded end 18 and is supported therein on the bearing shell 14a through the contact surface 19. This contact surface 19 is arranged outward in the region 20 of the bearing shell 14a having the ball surface segment so that the radius R of the ball surface segment intersects the axis of rotation 4. Because of the inner shape of the end 18 formed complementary to the curvature 20, the flange 13a and the bearing shell 14a form a ball segment 22. The contact surface 19 and the pressure line 23 of the separation bearing 1a are suitably positioned in place to apply a direct force and prevent the forcing. This pressure line 23 is determined by the pressure angle α of the separating bearing 1a. Because of the divided arrangement of the bent contact region 19 and the bearing ring 12a according to the invention, the flange 13a has a certain degree of freedom so that it can be aligned when there is an axial impact of the spring tongue 15. And the bearing shell 14a can achieve a specific displacement corresponding to the swing area β, which can be characterized by a double arrow.
