[0206] First, refer to figure 1 and figure 2 A bearing unit according to a first embodiment of the present invention is described. The bearing unit of this embodiment is a pair of Figure 16 The improvement of the bearing unit shown in (a), 16(b), therefore, only the different structure is described, and the description of the similar structure is omitted.

[0207] In the bearing unit of this embodiment, the outer ring (one raceway ring) 2 and the bush main body 12 (the raceway ring member constituting the other raceway ring) are formed by cold forging. Here, will refer to figure 1 Processing for forming the bush main body 12 by cold forging is described.

[0208] First, if figure 1 As shown in (a), as a material for forming the bush main body 12, a cylindrical billet 20 made of machine structural carbon steel (JISG4051) was prepared in which the material was spheroidized. It should be noted that although the billet 20 is a solid material here, since the bushing main ...

[0234] Below, will refer to image 3 and Figure 5 A bearing unit according to a second embodiment of the present invention is described. It should be noted that since the bearing unit of this embodiment is also Figure 16 The improvement of the bearing unit shown in (a), 16(b), therefore, only the different structure will be described below, and the description of the same structure will be omitted.

[0235] In the bearing units shown in 16(a) and 16(b), in order to increase the strength of the root of the mounting flange 12a to a certain extent, the bushing main body 12 is set to substantially the same (constant) hardness as a whole, so The clamping area (shaft end portion) 12c of the bush main body 12 is made difficult to be plastically deformed.

[0236] Thus, in the bearing unit of this embodiment, the clamping area 12c ( image 3 (a) and 3(b)) are easily plastically deformed so that the inner ring 16 can be locked to the lining with good efficiency by clamping (in tig...

[0263] Below, will refer to Figure 6 to Figure 9 A bearing unit according to a third embodiment of the present invention is described. This embodiment is intended to manufacture a structure for the aforementioned Figure 9 The bushing main body (the other raceway ring part) 113a of the wheel support unit of the driven wheel is shown. In addition, although Figure 8 Shows the state in which side extrusion processing is performed, but in Figure 8 In , the right half shows the state immediately before starting machining, and the left half shows the state just after finishing machining.

[0264] In order to manufacture the bushing main body 113a with the manufacturing method of this embodiment, first, the Image 6 The cylindrical material 150 shown in (a) is extruded forward in the first stage so as to obtain Image 6 The stepped first intermediate material 131 shown in (b). Forward extrusion, which is one of the cold plastic forming methods, is accomplished by pushing the...

Abstract

A bearing unit having one raceway ring (2) mounted on a vehicle body, the other raceway ring (4) placed facing the one raceway ring (2) and mounted on a wheel, and rolling bodies (6, 8) rollably assembled between an outer ring raceway (2s) and an inner ring raceway (4s) that are continuously circumferentially formed on the opposite surfaces of the raceway rings (2, 4). At least either of the raceway rings (2, 4) has a joint flange (2a) or an installation flange (12a) for mounting on the vehicle body or the wheel. The entire raceway rings (2, 4) are formed by cold forging without subjecting the surface of the flange (2a, 12a) to machining, and at least the outer ring raceway (2s) and the inner ring raceway (4s) are subjected to quenching and tempering by electromagnetic induction and cutting.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to bearing unit race ring components, bearing units, methods and apparatus for manufacturing bearing unit race ring components, in particular bearing units for rotatably supporting a wheel on a suspension system. It should be noted that in this description, wheels generally refer to all wheels, for example not only to wheels of automobiles but also to wheels of rail vehicles. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, various types of bearing units are known for rotatably supporting a wheel of an automobile on a vehicle body (for example, a suspension system (suspension)) (for example, refer to Patent Document 1). For example, a bearing unit for driving a wheel is shown in Figure 16 (a), and the bearing unit includes an outer ring (also known as a stationary ring, a raceway ring, outer warp side raceway ring component) that is fixed to the body side and is held in a non-rotating state at all times 2 , arranged in a ma...
