Definitions
- the present invention relates to the structure of a rear axle for a motor vehicle, and more specifically to the structure of a torsionally deformable closed profile cross member for connecting two longitudinal arms of the rear axle.
- Such rear axle sleepers are generally formed from a circular, rectangular or oval section tube, each end section of which is intended to be connected to one of the two arms of the axle, an intermediate section of the tube being pressed to obtain a U-shaped or V-shaped cross section.
- the intermediate section provides bending stiffness and torsional flexibility.
- a cross member of this type is for example known from US 6, 510, 763.
- these two transition sections are filled with a synthetic foam or metal.
- the foam is directly injected through the ends of the crossbar.
- crystals or metal powder mixed with foaming agents are introduced through the ends of the crossbar in the transition sections, then expanded by heating. In both cases, the filling of the transition sections is made possible only to the extent that the walls of the cross member in the intermediate section are contiguous to one another.
- FIG. 1 shows, on a section of a crossmember 1 taken in the intermediate section, a contact zone 2 between the upper wall 10 and the lower wall 11 when the crossmember is subjected to a force of twisting (arrow F1) causing a rimpedement of the two walls (shown schematically by the arrows F2 and F3).
- arrow F1 a force of twisting
- the present invention aims to eliminate the risk of corrosion in the intermediate section of a closed profile cross member by increasing the strength of the cross stiffness.
- the subject of the invention is a torsionally deformable closed profile cross member for a rear axle of a motor vehicle, enabling two longitudinal arms of said axle to be connected, said cross member being formed from a tube comprising lengths of end each capable of being connected to one of the two arms, an intermediate section stamped to obtain a U-shaped or V-shaped cross section in which the inner walls of the tube are separated by a space, and two transition sections of which the cross section is modified to connect each end section to the intermediate section, characterized in that the crosspiece further comprises two inserts each closing one end of the intermediate section over all or part of the length of each transition section, so as to avoid any contact between the inner walls at the intermediate section when the cross is subjected to torsional stress we.
- Each insert preferably comprises a core, for example polypropylene-type plastic, surrounded by a layer of adhesive material forming means for holding the insert against the inner walls of the tube.
- the layer of adhesive material may be a polyurethane foam or a thermosetting glue.
- FIG. 2 illustrates in perspective a cross member according to a first possible embodiment according to the present invention
- FIGS. 3a and 3b are perspective views of the two inserts of FIG. 2;
- FIG. 3c is a cross-sectional view in the middle zone of an insert of FIG. 2;
- FIG. 4 illustrates a cross member according to a second possible embodiment according to the present invention
- FIG. 5 is a perspective view of the two mechanically linked inserts of FIG. 4;
- FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view taken in the intermediate section of the cross member according to FIG. 4.
- a cross section 1 with a torsionally deformable closed profile is conventionally formed from a tube comprising two end sections TE that can each be connected to one of the two arms (not shown) of an axle. rear of a motor vehicle.
- the tube further comprises an intermediate section T
- the tube preferably of steel, is stamped in this intermediate zone so that a certain space exists between the internal walls (visible under the references 10 and 11 in FIG. 6), so as to prevent corrosion. by friction.
- the crossbar tube 1 also comprises two transition sections Tj whose cross section is modified to connect each end section TE to the intermediate section T
- the crosspiece 1 further comprises two inserts 3 each closing one end of the intermediate section T
- Figures 3a to 3c illustrate different views of the insert 3.
- This is preferably formed of a core 30 of sufficiently rigid material to reduce the relative displacement of the walls, typically a polypropylene type plastic.
- the core 30 is advantageously surrounded by a layer 31 of a few millimeters of adhesive material.
- This layer 31 may consist of a polyurethane foam or a thermosetting glue.
- the inserts are put in place inside the crosspiece 1 by introducing each insert by the end sections TE- A heating step of the cross member 1 equipped with the two inserts 3 then allows either the expansion of the foam, ie the hardening of the glue. At the end of this heating step, the inserts 3 are held inside the crossbar 1.
- each insert 3 completely complies with the shapes of the internal walls of the crossmember.
- the cross section of an insert 3 varies in the same way as the cross section of the section of the crosspiece that it occupies, so as to perfectly close the crosspiece.
- the inserts 3 are sealed and provide protection not only against corrosion by friction, but also against corrosion by oxidation in the section between the two inserts.
- FIGS. 4 to 6 illustrate a second embodiment in which the inserts 3 are held inside the crosspiece 1 not only thanks to the adhesive layer 31 surrounding the core of each insert 30, but also by means of mechanical connection.
- the mechanical connection means are here in the form of two cables 40, 41, preferably of steel, extending substantially parallel to each other inside the crossbar between the two inserts 3, each cable extending more precisely longitudinally in one of the two drops 12 of the crosspiece 1, as particularly visible in Figure 6.
- Each end of the cables 40 and 41 is fixed to one of the two inserts 3 by any fastening means such as screws or other.
