摘要:
An axle housing and a method of manufacture. The axle housing may include first and second housings that have spindle portions that cooperate to define at least one spindle that may be configured to rotatably support a wheel assembly.
摘要:
A differential carrier with an axis of rotation A around which the differential carrier can be rotatably supported in a differential housing is disclosed. The differential carrier comprises a first half-shell and a second half-shell. Each half-shell comprises a central carrier portion and two outer bearing portions. The two half-shells are connected to one another in the region of their bearing portions. A differential assembly which comprises such a differential carrier is also disclosed.
摘要:
A method for series production of an outer column for a safety steering column for motor vehicles in which a first tubular blank is stepwise moved to a plurality of working stations in which the blank is deformed respectively punched to form a substantially smooth-walled protecting tube of the outer column. A second tubular blank is simultaneously moved to a working station in which it is transformed into a corrugated tube and subsequently the two tubes are fed against each other so that end portions of the tube overlap and the overlapping tubes are then welded together in a main welding station. Thereafter at least one pressed metal part is welded to one of the tubes at an auxiliary welding station. At least one control station is coordinated with at least one working station for the first tubular blank and at least one additional control station is coordinated with at least one of the welding stations for checking the work performed by the at least one working and the at least one welding station. After ascertaining of a faulty part in one of the control stations; at least operation of all working and welding stations upstream of the one control station is stopped under simultaneous arresting the part in the upstream working and welding station. Resuming of operation of the working and welding station is then permitted only after removing of the faulty part.
