AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

The disadvantage of these designs is the relatively low strength of plastic and short fiber reinforced plastic, so rod ends made of plastic can only transmit relatively small loads

Embodiment Construction

[0036]The terms "comprising and comprises" in this disclosure may mean "including and includes" or may have the meaning generally assigned to the term "comprising" in US patent law. If used in the claims, the terms "consists essentially of or consists essentially of" have the meaning ascribed to them under US Patent Law. Other aspects of the invention are described in or are apparent from the following disclosure (and are within the scope of the invention).

[0037] The present invention solves the problems of the prior art by providing a rod end which has a low weight compared to metal rod ends while also being able to transmit high mechanical loads (unlike existing plastic rod ends) and which can also be manufactured economically.

[0038] In certain embodiments, rod ends according to the present invention may be attachment elements for introducing tension and compression forces into various linkages, for example, for applications in the aerospace field.

[0039] The rod en...

Abstract

The present invention achieves a high mechanical load capacity of a rod end (1) by means of a component loop that passes around a bearing (4), where the component may be made of continuous- fiber reinforced composite material with thermoplastic matrix (3) and where the continuous-fiber reinforced composite material with thermoplastic matrix may extend into a threaded stem (2) of the rod end, and the component made of continuous-fiber reinforced composite material with thermoplastic matrix may be enclosed by short-fiber reinforced, long-fiber reinforced, or unreinforced thermoplastic (5). The threaded stem can be implemented with an external or an internal thread.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims the benefit of priority of German Application No. 10 2019 004341.3 filed June 23, 2019 under 35 USC § 119. The foregoing applications are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety. technical field [0003] The present invention generally relates to a rod end made of thermoplastic fiber-reinforced plastic extending at least partially around a bearing. Background technique [0004] Fiber-reinforced plastics are fiber-reinforced materials that incorporate fibrous substances into plastics. Their features include, for example, high stiffness and strength combined with relatively low weight. [0005] In almost no other field of engineering, lightweight design is as important as in aerospace technology. Therefore, innovative lightweight design concepts are particularly important for the competitiveness of many aerospace components. [0006] For example, rod ends in passenger and cargo airc...
