Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of steering intermediate shafts, in particular to a self-lubricating automobile steering intermediate shaft and a processing technology thereof. Background Art
[0002] The steering intermediate shaft is one of the core components in the automobile steering system. It connects the steering gear and the steering column and is mainly used to transmit the operation of the steering wheel to the steering gear through the steering column. Due to the air tightness between the male shaft and the female shaft of the traditional steering intermediate shaft, when its length changes, the intermediate shaft will generate pressure toward the two ends or pulling force toward the middle, which will cause the steering gear and the steering column to be in a state of tension or compression for a long time, which will affect the operating stability of the steering gear and the steering column in the long run. If the air tightness between the male shaft and the female shaft is reduced, it will easily cause dust to enter between the male shaft and the female shaft, thereby contaminating the lubricant and increasing the wear between the male shaft and the female shaft.
[0003] Therefore, the present invention provides a self-lubricating automobile steering intermediate shaft and a processing technology thereof, so as to alleviate the above technical problems. Summary of the invention
[0004] The object of the present invention is to provide a self-lubricating automobile steering intermediate shaft and a processing technology thereof, so as to overcome the above-mentioned defects in the prior art.
[0005] A self-lubricating automobile steering intermediate shaft according to the present invention comprises a female shaft and a male shaft, a first universal joint is fixed to one end of the female shaft, a second universal joint is fixed to one end of the male shaft, the interior of the female shaft is hollow and communicated with the outside, an end of the male shaft away from the second universal joint is slidably connected to the female shaft, lubricating oil is stored in the female shaft, a sealing assembly that can expand or contract with the sliding of the male shaft is arranged in the female shaft, a sealing ring is fixed to one end of the female shaft close to the second universal joint, the sliding zone of the male shaft is located between the sealing ring and the sealing assembly, and the lubricating oil is sealed in the female shaft and between the sealing ring and the sealing assembly;
[0006] The sealing assembly includes a buffer seat, a through hole is opened at the center of the buffer seat, a deformation capsule is fixed on a side of the buffer seat away from the second universal joint, an end of the deformation capsule away from the second universal joint is closed, and the deformation capsule is connected to a cavity storing lubricating oil in the mother shaft through the through hole on the buffer seat;
[0007] The inner wall of the female shaft is divided into two parts: a connecting cavity close to the second universal joint and a receiving cavity far from the second universal joint. The spline groove is provided on the inner wall of the connecting cavity. The diameter of the male shaft is consistent with the diameter of the connecting cavity. The deformation capsule is arranged in the receiving cavity. The diameter of the connecting cavity is larger than the diameter of the receiving cavity. A step is formed at the connection between the receiving cavity and the connecting cavity. The buffer seat is fixed on the step.
[0008] The buffer seat and the deformation bag are both made of rubber material, and the outer periphery of the deformation bag is a corrugated shape formed by multiple broken lines surrounding its axis.
[0009] Through the above technical solution, the sealing assembly allows the lubricating oil to be confined in the female shaft, thereby lubricating the male shaft and the female shaft, thereby reducing the wear between the male shaft and the female shaft. At the same time, it can expand or contract with the sliding of the male shaft, ensuring that the relative sliding between the male shaft and the female shaft is not affected by the air pressure in the sealed space, ensuring that the length of the steering intermediate shaft changes smoothly, reducing the tension or pressure on the steering gear and the steering column when the length of the intermediate shaft changes, and reducing the impact on the operation of the steering gear and the steering column.
[0010] The present invention is further configured as follows: a plurality of spline grooves are provided on the inner wall of one end of the female shaft close to the second universal joint, a plurality of splines are fixed on the outer circumference of the male shaft, the splines are slidably connected to the spline grooves, and an oil groove is provided on the splines along the length direction thereof.
[0011] Through the above technical solution, the oil groove allows the lubricating oil in the mother shaft to enter between the spline and the spline groove, and penetrate through the gap between the spline and the spline groove, thereby improving the lubrication effect.
[0012] The present invention is further configured as follows: a plurality of through grooves are provided on the inner side wall of the sealing ring, the cross-sectional shape of the sealing ring is consistent with the cross-sectional shape of the spline groove portion of the mother shaft, the spline is slidably fitted with the through groove, a convex strip slidably fitted with the oil groove is fixed on the bottom wall of the through groove, and the cross-sectional shape of the convex strip is consistent with the oil groove.
[0013] Through the above technical solution, the sealing ring seals the end of the mother shaft close to the second universal joint, and the convex strip seals the oil groove, thereby preventing the leakage of lubricating oil.
[0014] The present invention is further configured as follows: the spline surface and the outer periphery of the male shaft are coated with a nylon coating, and the bottom wall of the oil groove is frosted.
[0015] Through the above technical solution, the nylon coating increases the lubricity of the spline surface and the male shaft surface. When the length of the intermediate shaft changes, the frosted oil groove increases its ability to carry lubricating oil, which is beneficial for the lubricating oil to penetrate between the spline and the spline groove.
[0016] The present invention is further configured as follows: a cover is threadedly connected to the outer periphery of one end of the female shaft close to the second universal joint, the cover is sleeved on the outer periphery of the sealing ring, the cover extends inwardly at one end close to the second universal joint to form a flange and covers the sealing ring, and the inner diameter of the flange is greater than the diameter of the male shaft.
[0017] Through the above technical solution, the sealing ring can be tightly fixed on the end of the female shaft by screwing the sealing cover on the end of the female shaft, thereby ensuring the sealing performance of the sealing ring.
[0018] The above technical solution is conducive to the deformation of the deformation capsule as the air pressure in the connecting cavity changes.
