Definitions
- the present invention relates to a rubber-mounted ball joint, the inner part of which is insulated from the outer part by an elastomer, and in which an articulated ball is mounted on an iron pin at its end in the inner part
- the bearings and joints used in automotive engineering for suspension suspension are subject to particularly high loads, among other things, by shear forces, vibrations and acceleration forces.
- it is known to dampen the vibrations caused, for example, by uneven road surfaces by using elastomers in the bearings or joint bodies, with a suitable choice of the elastomers will at the same time improve the acoustics, i.e. noise insulation against the running noise caused by the vibrations
- a specially shaped and preloaded joint body made of an elastic material is arranged between an inner and an outer sleeve of the bearing.
- the formation of the joint body leads to forced guidance in the case of cardanic deflection movements
- the outer contour of the bearing inner part is flared at an angle of inclination ⁇ and the outer and inner contour of the outer part at an angle of inclination Ne with respect to the bearing axis.
- the outer contour of the inner part is approximately starting in the area of the axis of the bearing, expanded conically in the direction of the bearing extension
- the height of the elastomer which is favorable for the acting torques can be realized particularly advantageously by means of targeted relationships between the angle of inclination of the outer contour of the inner part and the angle of inclination of the outer part and a shape of the elastomer which is adapted to it.
- An advantageous embodiment of the bearing according to the invention is therefore given that the angle of inclination of the conical extension of the outer contour of the inner part is less than the angle of inclination for the extension of the outer part.
- a rubber-mounted ball joint with the technical features described above has been further developed in such a way that at least one insert with a lower Shore hardness compared to the elastomer is inserted into the elastomer at least on one side of the ball joint Compressibility that is several times greater than that of the elastomer receiving the insert, which is basically incompressible.
- Design according to the invention improves the storage properties without structural changes, in particular the dimensions, having to be made
- the insert or inserts can be vulcanized into the elastomer or subsequently inserted into the finished elastomer
- the insert In order to prevent the insert from being released automatically from the elastomer, it can also be glued to the elastomer or can be fixed in the elastomer with an additional, for example wedge-shaped, securing element which is inserted between the elastomer and insert
- a further embodiment of the invention provides for the insert to be produced from a plurality of components which are connected to one another, the connection of which can be effected by a press fit or known composite methods and of which at least one has a high roughness A frictional engagement is achieved on a contact surface, which counteracts the automatic loosening of the insert from the elastomer
- the at least one insert with recesses at least in some areas
- the insert is to be subsequently inserted into the finished elastomer, it is also advantageous to provide, at least in some areas, a radially directed material accumulation of the elastomer to secure the insert in the elastomer, which engages in a complementarily shaped recess in the at least one insert automatic loosening of the insert from the elastomer is prevented in a simple manner
- the at least one insert can also be chamfered at least on its inner edge region
- Figure 2 The sectional view of a rubber ball joint according to the prior art
- FIG. 3 is a representation of the camp clarifying the occurring at the camp
- Hinge pin opposite side closing lid and one
- FIG. 1 illustrates the geometry of the bearing according to the invention on the basis of a sectional view with a cut made through the bearing axis 1.
- a bearing according to FIG. 2 is known from the prior art, in which the pivot points 8, 9 of the bearing and of the joint are related coincide locally in the axial direction
- a joint pin 6 is mounted in the bearing shell 4 of the inner part 2 of a rubber-metal bearing.
- This inner part 2 simultaneously forms the housing of the ball joint between the inner and outer parts 2, 3 of the bearing Elastomer 7 arranged in a known manner.
- the pivot pin 6 of the ball joint can swing out at an angle ⁇ in accordance with the forces acting radially on it.
- a stop surface 10 for the bearing inner part 2 is formed on the end face of the bearing extension.
- This stop surface and the conical design of the bearing cause axial forces in one for the Favorably accommodated in rubber
- the bearing geometry according to the invention also results in a favorable, uniform stress distribution in the elastomer 7 in relation to the radial forces acting
- FIG. 3 shows the forces or torques occurring on the bearing for clarification.
- the tendency of the inner part 2 resulting from the occurring torques to twist in the outer part 3 is inventively determined by the selected bearing geometry, in which, as can be seen from FIG , conically expand both the bearing inner part 2 with regard to its outer contour and the bearing outer part 3, the geometry according to the invention, as illustrated in FIG. 3, provides a supporting effect for absorbing the attacking torques
- the height 13 of the elastomer 7 given at a respective axial location is determined by the angle of inclination .beta. Or .theta. To be selected for the conical expansion of the inner part 2 or of the outer part 3. It is therefore particularly expedient if the angle of inclination .beta. For the conical expansion of the inner part 2 is less than that
- FIG. 4 shows a further possible embodiment of a ball joint according to the invention with a configuration closed on the side opposite the pivot pin 6.
- the bearing here is provided with a cover 14 on the end face. In addition to preventing the ingress of contaminants into the bearing, this also achieves that Axial forces can be absorbed in opposite directions
- Rubber height 13 to be adapted to the forces occurring in a manner that is favorable for the application case.
- an additional sealing bellows extension 16 which is formed directly and preferably in one piece on the sealing bellows 15.
- the sealing bellows extension 16 abuts the outer part 3 in a sealing manner
- FIG. 5 again illustrates the geometry of a further bearing according to the invention on the basis of a sectional illustration with a section Mit made through the bearing axis 1 the hinge ball 5 formed at its end is a hinge pin 6 mounted in the bearing shell 4 of the inner part 2 of a rubber metal bearing.
- This inner part 2 simultaneously forms the housing of the ball joint.
- an elastomer 7 is arranged in a known manner
- the pivot pin 6 of the ball joint can pivot out at an angle ⁇ in accordance with the forces acting radially on it. In order to maintain the size of the pivoting angle ⁇ , an extension of the bearing on the side of the pivot pin 6 is not an option.
- a soft-elastic insert 18 is inserted into the elastomer on the side of the pivot pin 6, which in the present case consists of an annular component.
- This insert can have additional recesses, not shown in FIG. 5 18 1
- a heap of material 19 in the form of a circumferential annular bead is also molded into the elastomer 7, which engages in a complementary recess 20 of the insert 18.
- the annular insert 18 is in the in FIG. 5 shown embodiment of a bearing according to the invention bevelled axially on the inside, so that assembly is thereby facilitated.
- the bearing geometry according to the invention results in a uniform stress distribution in the elastomer 7 in relation to the radial forces acting
- FIG. 6 also shows a design that is largely identical to the bearing shown in FIG. 5.
- the insert 18 in the present case consists of two components, the layer 20 having a roughness on the side interacting with the elastomer. which leads to a frictional connection between elastomer 7 and insert 18, so that the insert is secured in its receptacle against automatic loosening LIST OF REFERENCES:
