Definitions
- the present invention relates to a multi-lobed sleeve for protecting a vehicle transmission between a transmission shaft and a gearbox tulip, as well as a transmission joint equipped for its sealing of such a sleeve.
- a transmission consisting of two shafts interconnected by a mechanical transmission member which requires lubrication.
- the shaft from the gearbox is equipped with a tulip which constitutes the female element of the transmission member connecting the first shaft to the second transmission shaft.
- This female element affects the shape of a cavity generally trilobed. The lobes thus delimit housing each intended to receive for example a pebble.
- this roller is carried by a male element which has three roller journals. This male element is itself coupled to the transmission shaft.
- a protective sleeve of such a homokinetic tripod joint of the type described above comprises a cylindro-conical bellows which, at one end, comprises a large multi-lobed base which, in the mounted state, bears against the outer surface of the the tulip or bowl of the seal.
- This large base thus has an inner surface which has a shape complementary to the outer shape of the polylobed tulip.
- a ring or collar tightens the large base against the periphery of the tulip.
- the small base of the sleeve is fixed on the integral transmission shaft of the male element of the seal.
- Patent EP-A-1,450,060 confirms the need for the presence of means for axial immobilization of the sleeve on the tulip in the direction of dislocation of the tulip. Indeed, this patent EP-A-1,450,060 describes a method for producing a vehicle transmission protection sleeve.
- the basic purpose of the invention described in this patent is to improve the seal between the bellows shown in 60 or 100 in the figures and the tulip shown under the reference 80 in Figure 7a.
- an insert 56 is molded into the space separating said bellows from said tulip. As shown in Figure 6 of this patent, the piece 56 has bulges on its surface intended to be in contact with the tulip.
- Figure 7A shows that the insert, regardless of its embodiment, is housed in a groove of the tulip.
- the sleeve thus has with its insert an undercut.
- the solution described in this patent also includes means for axial immobilization of the fitting.
- the inventors of the present invention have however found that a simplification of the connection could be envisaged without harming the maintenance of the sleeve on the tulip during operation or handling of the transmission.
- An object of the present invention is therefore to provide a multi-lobed sleeve and a transmission joint incorporating such a sleeve whose designs allow a simplification of the sleeve and the tulip used to receive the sleeve without impairing the quality, in particular the sealing and the mechanical strength of the connection between tulip and sleeve.
- the subject of the invention is a multi-lobed protective sleeve for transmitting a vehicle between a transmission shaft and a gearbox tulip, said sleeve being in the form of a cylindro-conical bellows extending between the large base polylobée and the small base of the sleeve, characterized in that the sleeve has a new type of architecture in the vicinity of the large polylobée base of said sleeve, this architecture of eliminating, in the fitting area of the sleeve on the tulip, all means of axial immobilization in said fitting to allow free translation of the sleeve in the direction of a disengagement during a maintenance or replacement operation, a clamping member, such as a collar or a ring, being provided on the outer face of said fitting to exert a radial pressure of immobilization of the W
- the final thickness of the sleeve in the zone of smaller thickness, called the non-lobed zone, at the right of the clamping member is at most equal to 85% of the initial thickness. the sleeve in said zone so as to ensure a mechanical strength and a seal of the sleeve / tulip connection.
- the invention also relates to a transmission joint of the type comprising two shafts, an articulated transmission member connecting the two shafts, a multi-lobed sleeve for sealing the seal and two members for clamping the ends of the sleeve on a shaft. or on a member of the joint secured to a shaft, the two clamping members being clamped on these ends, characterized in that the sealing sleeve is of the aforementioned type.
- Figures 1 and 2 show, respectively in the form of a perspective view and a sectional view in the unlobed area, a sleeve according to the state of the art
- FIG. 3 represents a perspective view of a sleeve according to the invention
- FIG. 4 represents a sectional view of the non-lobed bonding zone between the sleeve and the tulip at the level of the large multi-lobed base of the muff ;
- FIG. 5 represents an overall view of a transmission joint according to the invention in an exploded position of the elements constituting it and
- FIGS. 6A and 6B show, in partial schematic form, the bellows and the tulip in the non-lobed zone for fitting the elements together, the parameters enabling the computation of the clamping value having been represented.
- the sleeve 5 is intended to protect a transmission of the type conforming to that shown in FIG. 5.
- the transmission joint thus comprises two shafts represented at 1 and 3 in the figures and a member 2, 4 of FIG. articulated transmission connecting the two shafts 1, 3 between them.
- This transmission member is constituted by a male element 4 which has three roller journals spaced angularly 120 ° from each other and a female element.
- the female element 2, also called tulip has housings each for receiving a roller 13.
- the male element of the seal is integral with the transmission shaft shown in 1 in the figures while the female element or tulip 2 of the seal is coupled to the shaft 3 from the gearbox.
- the sleeve is intended to protect this seal and is fixed by its large multi-lobed base on the periphery of the tulip 2, which constitutes the female element of the seal integral with the shaft 3, while its small base 7 is fixed on the transmission shaft 1 secured to the element 4 male seal.
- the bellows 8 of this sleeve therefore extends between the large poly-lobed base 6 and the small base 7 of said sleeve.
- the large poly-lobed base 6 of the sleeve has an inner periphery of complementary homothetic shape to the external profile of the tulip 2.
- this large base 6 has internally bulges in an arc to form the lobes of said sleeve.
- These lobes are interconnected by a circular wall segment called zone 12 without lobed sleeve.
- the sleeve 5 of pace generally cylindrical-conical present, in its bellows zone 8, turns developing from the small base 7 to the large base 6 of the sleeve.
- Large base 6 and small base 7 of the sleeve are intended, at their internal surface, to be tightly sealed against the periphery of the associated member by a fixing member which may be of collar 11 or ring type.
- the zone of fitting of the sleeve 5 on the tulip 2 is free of any means of axial immobilization in the direction of disengagement of the sleeve 5 of the tulip 2.
- a clamp 11 is provided on the outer face of the fitting, at the periphery of the large base 6 poly lobbed, to exert a radial pressure of immobilization of the sleeve 5 against the tulip 2 receiving.
- the radial pressure exerted causes, in line with the collar 11, a reduction in the thickness of the fitting zone. This radial pressure must be sufficient to ensure the seal and the mechanical strength of the connection between sleeve and tulip during operation of the transmission.
- the clamping force to be applied, in the area 12 not lobed, through the collar 11 clamping is such that the final thickness of the sleeve 5 to the right of the clamp 11 clamping is at most equal to 85% of the initial thickness of the sleeve in said zone so as to ensure a mechanical strength and a seal of the sleeve connection 5 / tulip 2.
- the initial thickness of the sleeve which bears the reference El, corresponds to the outer diameter DSi of the large base of the sleeve mounted on the tulip minus the diameter DT of the tulip bowl in the area 12 not lobed, the whole being divided by two.
- the initial thickness El meets the following definition: DSI - DT
- the final thickness of the sleeve EF in the zone 12 not lobbed is equal to:
- E corresponds to the thickness of the collar, DCF to the diameter of the collar and DT to the diameter of the tulip in the zone 12 not lobed.
- the value of the clamping expressed in percent is provided by the formula:
- the clamping must therefore be carried out in such a way that EF ⁇ 85% x El.
- the collar 11 or the ring is crimped onto the sleeve 5.
- the sleeve 5 has, in its fitting area on the inner periphery of the large poly-lobbed base, at least one, preferably two sealing lips 9.
- the large poly-lobed base 6 of the sleeve 5 delimits in its transition zone with the bellows 8, a limit stop 10 against which the front face of the tulip 2 comes into abutment upon insertion of the latter into the muff.
- the abutment 10 simply has the function of marking the sliding end of introduction of the tulip 2 in the sleeve 5.
