AI Technical Summary
The wave springs under the existing JB/T 7590-2005 technical conditions are prone to fatigue fracture in the drive motors of new energy vehicles due to high stress and frequent vibration. In addition, the small contact area between the wave crest and the outer ring of the bearing leads to severe wear and affects the bearing life.
The system employs a wave washer with four wave lengths and a sinusoidal shape, combined with a top washer, bottom washer, slot, slide, insert shaft, and rubber ring. Stability and friction are enhanced by the deformation of the rubber sheet and rubber washer. The rubber ring adapts to the bearing shape, and a limit indicator is set to speed up the assembly.
It improves the fatigue life and stability of wave springs, reduces wear, extends the service life of bearings, and enhances their performance in harsh environments.
