Problems solved by technology

[0002] In the prior art, in order to ensure the mechanical properties required for initial use, forged steel or cast iron is often used to manufacture the steering knuckle, which brings great difficulties to the later anti-corrosion treatment, especially when the steering knuckle is located near the wheel at the same height as the chassis , the negative environmental impacts of air, water and soil are great, so the steel steering knuckle in the conventional technology is prone to intergranular corrosion and the ability to resist torsion decreases, resulting in transgranular fracture and final failure
However, whether it is simple cast aluminum, forged aluminum or directly deformed aluminum alloy for cutting, either the processing cost is too high (aluminum alloy processing is more difficult than steel parts, and it is easy to stick to the knife), or the mechanical properties are insufficient. In the existing technology, only a small number of steering knuckles that do not require high working conditions or use high-streng

Example Embodiment

[0025] Example 1:

[0026] An automobile steering knuckle capable of resisting the failure mode of cross-crystalline fracture. The porosity of the steering knuckle is 0%-0.2%. The grain growth direction is the horizontal direction from the outermost edge to the center of the axis. The material used is ZL203;

[0027] The manufacturing method of the above-mentioned automotive steering knuckle resistant to the failure mode of crystal penetration fracture includes the following steps:

[0028] 1) Preparation before manufacturing

[0029] ①Preparation of raw materials: prepare sufficient design and corresponding casting aluminum-copper alloy master ingot;

[0030] ② Tooling preparation: prepare a water-cooled copper mold rotary casting mold. The mold is composed of two half molds. The parting surface 6 is located at the center line of the two sides of the symmetry. The mold entity is solid copper matrix 1, which is made of pure copper. The position corresponding to the central shaft of the...

Abstract

The invention discloses an automobile steering knuckle resisting a transgranular fracture failure mode and a manufacturing method of the automobile steering knuckle. The steering knuckle is formed bycarrying out continuous water-cooled copper mold rotary rapid cooling casting, and then carrying out hot isostatic pressing in the same furnace by adopting a stainless steel belt sheath for one-time forming, the steering knuckle can be cut into a plurality of blanks after being formed, the porosity of the obtained blanks ranges from 0% to 0.2%, and the overall growth direction of grains is the horizontal direction from the outmost edge to the central of the axis. The aluminum alloy steering knuckle has the advantages of radial growth of the grains, good compactness, high strength, torsion resistance and impact resistance.
