Embodiment Construction

[0058] figure 1 A first embodiment of a universal joint spider bushing for a spider joint used in drive and steering axles of a vehicle is shown, wherein the universal joint spider bushing 1 comprises an outer ring 2 .

[0059] In the present example, the universal joint spider bushing 1 essentially has two vertical parts and one horizontal part, which are connected to one another, in particular constructed in one piece. The described parts together form a cup-shaped joint spider bushing 1 , wherein the shown horizontal parts form the outer ring 2 .

[0060] In the region between these three parts, the rolling bodies of the needle bearing or the rollers 3 of the needle bearing are arranged. At least on the inner side of the cup-shaped joint spider bushing 1 , the horizontal part or outer ring 2 thus forms a rolling-body raceway on which the rollers 3 can roll.

[0061] For the sake of completeness, it should be mentioned that the three described parts of the universal joint ...

Abstract

The invention relates to a universal joint bush (1) for universal joints for use in drive shafts and steering shafts, comprising an outer ring (2), which has a surface layer (R) formed by at least onemeasure for diffusing an element into regions of the universal joint bush (1) near the surface, wherein the surface layer (R) of the outer ring (2) comprises nitrogen. The invention further relates to methods for producing a universal joint bush (1) and/or for increasing the wear resistance of a universal joint bush (1) having a surface layer (R) containing nitrogen.
