Abstract

The composite ball joint housing production system for a vehicle steering joint initially cold-shapes a cylindrical rod with a spherical head, the rod being then machined to size. The spherical head is subjected to a controlled crushing operation at right angles to the cylindrical section axis, so as to produce a part with a cylindrical rod ending in a plate of part-spherical section whose axis is perpendicular to that of the rod, which it intersects at the centre of the plate. A coaxial cylindrical orifice is cut in the plate of predetermined diameter, into which a tubular component is pressed so as to secure it there permanently. The external diameter of the component is slightly greater than that of the orifice, and it extends either side of the plate for predetermined distances. It is formed into a pivot housing by stamping, this operation also forming an external groovesin it by which it is held in place. The rod is finally screwed.
