Abstract

Provided is a bearing device for a wheel that can realize prevention of a backlash in a circumferential direction and is excellent in workability of connection of a hub wheel and an outer joint member of a constant velocity universal joint. Further, provided is a bearing device for a wheel that can prevent deterioration in NVH characteristics, which is caused by the backlash occurring in a joint section between the hub wheel and the constant velocity universal joint or between an outer member and a knuckle, and can perform rotation torque transmission with high accuracy. The bearing device includes a recess-projection fitting structure (M) in which the hub wheel (1) and a shaft section (12), which is fitted in a hole (22) of the hub wheel (1) of the outer joint member of the constant velocity universal joint (3) are unitized together. In the recess-projection fitting structure (M), entire fitting regions among projections (35) on the outer surface of the shaft section (12) of the outer joint member and recesses (36), which fit on the projections, are brought into intimate contact with each other.

Description

technical field

[0001] The present invention relates to a wheel bearing device for rotatably supporting a wheel on a vehicle body of a vehicle such as an automobile. Background technique

[0002] Bearing devices for wheels have developed from the single-use multi-row rolling bearing structure called the first generation to the second generation with the body mounting flange integrated on the outer part, and further developed to the hub ring with the wheel mounting flange integrated In the third generation, an inner raceway surface with multiple rows of rolling bearings is integrally formed on the outer periphery of the wheel. Finally, the constant velocity universal joint integrated into the hub ring is developed, and the outer periphery of the outer joint member constituting the constant velocity universal joint is integrally formed. The fourth generation of the other inner raceway with multiple rows of rolling bearings.

Embodiment Construction

[0099] Below, refer to figure 1 ~ Figure 21 illustrates an embodiment of the present invention. figure 1 A bearing device for a wheel according to the first embodiment is shown, and the bearing device for a wheel is formed by integrally integrating a hub 1 , a multi-row rolling bearing 2 and a constant velocity universal joint 3 .

[0100] The constant velocity universal joint 3 includes an outer ring 5 as an outer joint member, an inner ring 6 as an inner joint member disposed inside the outer ring 5 , and a plurality of joints sandwiched between the outer ring 5 and the inner ring 6 to transmit torque. The balls 7 and the cage 8 holding the balls 7 sandwiched between the outer ring 5 and the inner ring 6 are composed as main components. The inner ring 6 is spline-fitted by press-fitting the end portion 10 a of the shaft 10 into the inner diameter 6 a of the shaft hole, and coupled to the shaft 10 so that torque can be transmitted. In addition, a stop ring 9 for preventin...
