    摘要: A tolerance ring is disclosed and can include a generally cylindrical body having a side wall that defines a top, and a bottom. The side wall includes a plurality of wave structures that extend from the sidewall in a first direction and a first plurality of component engagement structures that extend from the sidewall in a second direction opposite the first direction. Each of the first plurality of component engagement structures can be configured to at least partially extend into and engage a first component to which the tolerance ring is assembled.

    摘要: A torque limiting tolerance ring is disclosed and can include a generally cylindrical body having a sidewall. The sidewall can include an unformed section. A plurality of projections can extend from the unformed section of the sidewall and the plurality of projections can be arranged in a first circumferential row and a second circumferential row. The torque limiting tolerance ring can include a frangible portion that can extend circumferentially around the tolerance ring between the first and second rows of projections.

    摘要: A method of process control including constraining a tolerance ring relative to one of an inner and an outer component. The tolerance ring including an annular band of resilient material having a plurality of projections projecting radially therefrom. Additionally, the method includes moving the other of the inner or outer component with respect to the constrained tolerance ring so as to compress the projections of the tolerance ring between the inner and outer components, and continuing movement of the inner or outer component, respectively, beyond the projections. The method further including measuring a force required for continuing movement, and using the force for process control.

    摘要: A tolerance ring (10) for providing an interference fit between inner and outer components (36, 50) is disclosed. The tolerance ring (10) comprises a deformable band wound to form a first layer (111) having a plurality of radially extending projections (12, 13, 15) around its circumference and an unformed second layer (110) which overlaps with the first layer. The second layer acts as a force diffuser to spread the forces transferred through the projections on to the inner or outer component.
