    It is proposed to increase the strength of a cage of a constant-velocity joint. A pair of end faces of each pocket formed in the cage that oppose each other in a circumferential direction of the cage are formed by surfaces cut after hardening and their surface hardness is reduced to a value lower than the surface hardness of a pair of side faces of each pocket that oppose each other in an axial direction of the cage to impart toughness to the bridge portions defined between the pockets and thus to increase the strength of the cage.

    专利说明:
    [0001] This invention relates to a cage for a stationary type constant-velocity joint (CVJ) comprising an outer and an inner ring, balls through which torque is transmitted between the outer and inner rings, and a cage for retaining the balls, and a method of manufacturing the cage, and a constant-velocity joint. [0001]
    [0002] FIG. 5 shows a conventional stationary type CVJ, which comprises an outer ring [0002] 50 formed with a plurality of curved track grooves 54 in its spherical inner surface 51, an inner ring 52 formed with a plurality of curved track grooves 55 in its spherical outer surface 53, radially opposite to the respective track grooves 54, and balls 56 each received in a pair of radially opposed track grooves 54 and 55.
    [0003] The balls [0003] 56 are retained in pockets 60 of a cage 57 disposed between the inner and outer rings 52, 50 with its outer spherical surface 58 guided by the inner spherical surface 51 of the outer ring 50 and its inner spherical surface 59 guided by the outer spherical surface 53 of the inner ring 52.
    [0004] The bottoms of the track grooves [0004] 54 and 55 are curved such that their respective centers of curvature A1 and A2 are spaced (or offset) equal distances from point O0 in opposite directions along the axis of the rings. When torque is transmitted with the outer ring 50 and the inner ring 52 taking a working angle, the balls 56 are always in a plane perpendicular to the bisector of the working angle, so that the output ring can always rotate at a constant speed irrespective of the working angle.
    [0005] The pockets [0005] 60 of the cage 57 are elongated in the circumferential direction of the cage as shown in FIG. 6A so that the balls 56 move in the circumferential direction in the pockets while sliding along the axially opposed side faces 61 as shown in FIG. 6B when the inner and outer rings are rotating with their axes inclined relative to each other. High wear resistance is therefore required to the side faces 61.
    [0006] To increase the wear resistance of the side edges [0006] 61, a conventional CVJ cage 57 is manufactured following the next seven steps as shown in FIG. 7:
    [0007] Step [0007] 1: forming a short tubular member P1 as shown in FIG. 7A by cutting a pipe;
    [0008] Step [0008] 2: pressing the member P1 from both ends to form a cage blank P2 having outer and inner surfaces curved;
    [0009] Step [0009] 3: turning the outer and inner surfaces into spherical outer and inner surfaces 58, 59 (FIG. 7C);
    [0010] Step [0010] 4: pressing the cage blank P2 to form pockets 60 (FIG. 7D);
    [0011] Step [0011] 5: shaving the perimeter of each pocket 60 to cut a pair of side faces 61 until the width between the side faces 61 becomes substantially equal to the diameter of the balls 56 (FIG. 7E);
    [0012] Step [0012] 6: subjecting the cage blank P2 to heat treatment such as carburizing to increase surface hardness; and
    [0013] Step [0013] 7: grinding the cage blank P2 (FIG. 7F) to finish spherical outer and inner surfaces 58, 59 to form a cage 57.
    [0014] Because the cage blank is carburized after the pockets [0014] 60 have been formed, hardened layers 63 formed around the pockets 60 will have a uniform depth as shown in FIGS. 6A, 6B. The side faces 61 as the ball rolling surfaces have a pretty high hardness of 58-63 HRC. The cage 57 is thus sufficiently wear resistant.
    [0015] When torque is transmitted with the inner and outer rings forming a working angle, tensile and torsional forces act on the cage [0015] 57. Thus, it is desirable to decrease the hardness to increase the toughness of the bridge portions 64 defined between the pockets 60.
    [0016] But since the cage blank is carburized after the pockets have been formed and their side faces [0016] 61 have been finished by shaving, the hardened layers formed around the pockets 60 have a uniform depth as shown in FIG. 6B. The bridges 64 are thus high in hardness and low in toughness. Since the bridges 64 are formed by punching the pockets 60, they naturally have a trapezoidal cross-section, which means that their width (circumferential dimension) at their inner side is smaller than at their outer side. Thus, if the number of balls and thus the number of pockets are increased to increase the load-bearing capacity of the joint without increasing its outer diameter, the width of the bridge portion on the radially inner side tends to be short.
    [0017] Therefore there are several points to be improved to increase the strength of such a conventional cage. [0017]
    [0018] Also, with such a conventional cage [0018] 57, since the axially opposed side faces 61 of each cage 60 are finished by shaving, the width of the pockets 60 (or distances between the side faces 61) tends to vary rather widely.
    [0019] Thus, in assembling a constant-velocity joint, it is necessary to classify the cages [0019] 57 into ranks according to the width of the pockets 60, classify the torque-transmitting balls into ranks according to the respective pocket widths, and adjust the gaps between the pockets 60 and the torque-transmitting balls 56. If no suitable gaps are obtainable, there arises a necessity of grinding the side faces 61 of the pockets 60. Thus, assembling is extremely troublesome and there remain points to be improved.
    [0020] An object of the invention is to provide a cage for a constant-velocity joint that is high in mechanical strength, and a method of manufacturing such a cage, and a durable constant-velocity joint. [0020]
    [0021] According to this invention, there is provided a cage of a stationary type constant-velocity joint having an outer ring and an inner ring, the cage having a cylindrical portion formed with a plurality of pockets at equal angular intervals to receive balls for transmitting a turning torque between the outer ring and the inner ring, the cage having a spherical outer surface kept in contact with and guided by a spherical inner surface of the outer ring and a spherical inner surface kept in contact with and guided by a spherical outer surface of the inner ring, characterized in that the pockets each have a pair of end faces that oppose to each other in a circumferential direction of the cage and a pair of side faces that oppose to each other in an axial direction of the cage, and the pair of end faces are formed by cutting after hardening and have a lower surface hardness than the side faces. [0021]
    [0022] The center of curvature of the spherical outer surface of the cylindrical portion may be at the same point as or spaced from the center of curvature of its spherical inner surface in an axial direction of the cylindrical portion. [0022]
    [0023] By this arrangement described in the characterizing portion, toughness is imparted to the bridge portions formed between the pockets and their tensile and torsional strengths are improved. [0023]
    [0024] As a method for giving a lower surface hardness to a pair of the end faces of each pocket than a pair of the side faces, either of the following two methods may be adopted. One is to form the cylindrical portion of the cage with pockets from carburized case-hardened steel and cut the entire inner periphery of each pocket with the cutting depth deeper to form a smaller carburizing depth on the end faces than on the side faces, and the other is to cut only the end faces, thereby forming a smaller carburizing depth on the end faces than on the side faces. [0024]
    [0025] The end faces of the pockets may be cut to inclined surfaces that incline so as to diverge radially outwardly. [0025]
    [0026] On the constant-velocity joint comprising an outer ring, an inner ring and a cage mounted between the outer ring and the inner ring so that the center of curvature of the spherical outer surface of the cage is axially spaced from the center of curvature of the spherical inner surface of the cage, when torque is transmitted with the outer ring and the inner ring taking a working angle therebetween, the balls received in the pockets of the cage move drawing a figure “[0026] 8” which is larger at its radially outer half than at its radially inner half. By forming the end faces of each pocket into inclined surfaces that incline so as to diverge radially outwardly, the width of each bridge portion at its inner side is increased. This increases the strength of the bridge portions.
    [0027] According to this invention, there is also provided a method of manufacturing a cage of a constant-velocity joint comprising the steps of turning outer and inner surfaces of a tubular cage blank to form spherical outer and inner surfaces, pressing the cage blank to form a plurality of pockets at equal angular intervals, hardening the cage blank by carburizing, grinding the spherical outer and inner surfaces of the cage blank after heat treatment, and cutting a pair of end faces of each of the pockets so that the pair of end faces will have a lower surface hardness than a pair of side faces of the pockets. [0027]
    [0028] By adopting such a method, a cage is provided which has bridge portions having toughness and which has a high mechanical strength. [0028]
    [0029] According to this invention, there is also provided a stationary constant-velocity joint comprising an outer ring, an inner ring, the outer ring being formed with a plurality of curved track grooves in a spherical inner surface thereof and the inner ring being formed with a plurality of curved track grooves in spherical outer surface thereof, the center of curvature of the track grooves of the outer ring and the center of curvature of the track grooves of the inner ring being offset by equal distances in opposite directions from the angular center of the joint, torque-transmitting balls mounted between the track grooves formed in the outer ring and the track grooves formed in the inner ring, and a cage having a cylindrical portion formed with a plurality of pockets at equal angular intervals to receive the balls for transmitting a turning torque between the outer ring and the inner ring, characterized in that the pockets each have a pair of end faces that oppose to each other in a circumferential direction of the cage and a pair of side faces that oppose to each other in an axial direction of the cage, and the pair of end faces are formed by cutting after hardening and have a lower surface hardness than the pair of side faces.

    [0039] FIGS. [0039] 1-4 show an embodiment of the present invention. A constant-velocity joint shown in FIG. 1 comprises an outer ring 1, an inner ring 11, torque-transmitting balls 21 and a cage 31.
    [0040] The outer ring [0040] 1 has a spherical inner surface 2 formed with eight curved ball grooves 3 at equal circumferential intervals.
    [0041] The inner ring [0041] 11 has a spherical outer surface 12 formed with curved ball grooves 13, as many as the ball grooves 3, at equal circumferential intervals.
    [0042] The bottoms of the ball grooves [0042] 3 and 13 are curved so that their respective centers of curvature A1 and A2 are spaced (offset) equal distances from center point O0 of the coupling in opposite directions along the axis of the rings.
    [0043] Through balls [0043] 21 mounted between the ball grooves 3 of the outer ring 1 and the ball grooves 13 of the inner ring 11, torque is transmitted between the rings 1 and 11.
    [0044] FIG. 2 shows a cage [0044] 31, which has a cylindrical portion 32 formed at one end thereof with an inlow 33 having a diameter substantially equal to the outer diameter of the inner ring 11. The cylindrical portion 32 has a spherical outer surface 34 guided by the spherical inner surface 2 of the outer ring 1 and a spherical inner surface 35 guided by the spherical outer surface 12 of the inner ring 1.
    [0045] The centers of curvature B[0045] 1 and B2 of the spherical outer and inner surfaces 34, 35 are axially spaced (offset) from each other equal distances from center point O0 in opposite directions along the axis of the rings when the cage 31 is mounted between the outer ring 1 and the inner ring 11.
    [0046] The distance between each center of curvature B[0046] 1, B2 and point O0 may be greater than, or equal to the distance between each center of curvature A1, A2 of the ball grooves 3 and 13 and point O0. If the former is equal to the latter, the centers of curvature B1, B2 coincide with the respective centers of curvature A1, A2.
    [0047] As shown in FIG. 3, the cage [0047] 31 is formed with pockets 36 in which are received the balls 21. The pockets have a pair of axially opposed parallel side faces 37. The distance therebetween (or width of the pocket) is substantially equal to the diameter of the balls 21. The balls roll on the side faces 37.
    [0048] When the joint is transmitting a torque with the outer and inner rings [0048] 1 and 11 forming a working angle, the center of each ball 21 moves in the pocket 36 drawing a locus like the letter “8” as seen in cross-section (FIG. 3B).
    [0049] The ball [0049] 21 moves so that the radially outer half portion of the letter “8” is bigger than its radially inner half portion. This is because the centers of curvature B1 and B2 are offset in opposite directions from point O0.
    [0050] With the outer ring [0050] 1 and the inner ring 11 inclined relative to each other so that one of the pockets 36 of the cage 31 will be positioned outside of the outer ring 1, the torque-transmitting balls 21 are mounted one by one in the respective pockets 36. During mounting, the balls 21 that have been mounted first move forming the figure “8” that is large on the radially outer side and small on the radially inner side. The amount of their movement is greater than the amount of movement of the balls 21 during torque transmission.
    [0051] Thus, if a pair of circumferentially opposing end faces [0051] 38 of each pocket 36 are parallel to each other as seen in cross-section, bridge portions 39 having a generally trapezoidal cross-section are formed between the pockets 36. Such bridge portions 39 are narrow in width at their radially inner portion and thus low in strength.
    [0052] In the embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3B, the end faces [0052] 38 of each pocket 36 are oblique so as to diverge radially outwardly. They may have a straight cross-section as shown or may be recessed complementarily to the outer periphery of the balls 21.
    [0053] Since the end faces [0053] 38 diverge radially outwardly, the bridge portions 39 have a greater width at their radially inner portion. The strength of the cage 31 thus increases.
    [0054] When the joint transmits a torque with the inner and outer rings [0054] 1 and 11 forming a working angle, the balls 21 roll on the axially opposed side faces 37. Thus, high hardness is required for the side faces 37.
    [0055] In the conventional arrangement of FIGS. 6A, 6B, the cage [0055] 57 is subjected to carburizing to increase the hardness of the side faces 61. But since the hardened layers formed around the pockets 60 had a uniform depth, the toughness of the bridge portions 64 was insufficient. This lowers the strength of the cage.
    [0056] In the embodiment, in order to solve this problem, a cage [0056] 31 made from low-carbon (such as SCr415 or SCM415) case-hardened steel (hardness: 25-45 HrC) and formed with pockets 36 is first hardened by carburizing. Then, the end faces 38 of each pocket 36 are subjected to cutting so that they will have a lower hardness than the axially opposing side faces 37.
    [0057] Both of the side faces [0057] 37 and the end faces 38 may be cut, or only the end faces may be cut. If both are cut, they should be cut to different depths so that they will have different surface hardnesses.
    [0058] Since the end faces [0058] 38 are lower in hardness than the side faces 37, the bridge portions 39 have higher toughness. This increases the strength of the cage 31.
    [0059] FIG. 4 shows a method of manufacturing the cage [0059] 31 of the present invention, which comprises the following steps:
    [0060] Step [0060] 1: cutting a pipe made of SCr415 or SCM415 to form a tubular member P1 (FIG. 4A);
    [0061] Step [0061] 2: pressing the tubular member P1 from both ends to form a cage blank P2 having arcuate inner and outer surfaces (FIG. 4B);
    [0062] Step [0062] 3: turning the inner and outer surfaces of the cage blank P2 to form spherical outer and inner surfaces 34, 35 (FIG. 4C);
    [0063] Step [0063] 4: pressing the cage blank P2 to form a plurality of pockets 36 (FIG. 4D);
    [0064] Step [0064] 5: hardening the cage blank P2 by carburizing to form a hardened layer 40 having a depth of 0.45-1.00 mm and a surface hardness of 58-63 HRC around each pocket 36 as shown by dot line in FIG. 4E;
    [0065] Step [0065] 6: finishing the spherical outer and inner surfaces 34, 35 of the hardened cage blank P2 by grinding (FIG. 4F); and
    [0066] Step [0066] 7: cutting the inner wall of each pocket 36 to adjust its dimension. In Step 7, the side faces 37 are cut to a smaller depth than the end faces 38 so that the latter will have a lower hardness than the former.
    [0067] If the side faces [0067] 37 are not cut after carburizing, they are shaved before carburizing to adjust the width of the pockets (or distance between the side faces) to a predetermined size.
    [0068] Since with this cage manufacturing method the inner wall of the pockets [0068] 36 is cut after the cage blank has been hardened by carburizing, the end faces 38 of each pocket can be worked so as to diverge radially outwardly (FIG. 3B). This increases the toughness of the bridge portions 39.
    [0069] When the pocket width is adjusted to a predetermined width dimension by cutting the pair of side faces [0069] 37, the machining tolerance of the pocket width may be smaller than when it is adjusted by shaving.
    [0070] In this case, in assembling the constant-velocity joint, it is possible to omit classification of cages [0070] 31 and torque-transmitting balls 21 into ranks and thus to reduce the assembling cost.
    [0071] The cage of FIG. 1 has eight pockets [0071] 36 and the centers of curvature B1 and B2 of the outer and inner surfaces 34, 35 are axially offset. But the concept of the present invention is applicable to cages and CVJs of different types.
    [0072] For example, this invention is applicable to the cage and CVJ shown in FIG. 5. The CVJ of this particular example has six balls and the cage [0072] 57 has spherical outer and inner surfaces 58, 59 whose centers of curvature are on the angle center of the joint.
    [0073] With this type of joint, when the joint transmits a torque with the rings [0073] 50, 52 forming a working angle, the center of each ball 56 moves in the pocket forming a radially symmetrical letter “8” in cross-section (FIG. 6B). Thus, the circumferentially opposing end faces 62 of each pocket are parallel to each other as seen in section.
    [0074] Since the end faces [0074] 62 are formed by cutting so that they are lower in hardness than the side faces 61, the bridge portions 64 have a larger toughness like the cage 31 shown in FIG. 4F. The cage 57 thus has a greater strength and the constant-velocity joint has improved durability.
    [0075] According to this invention, since the pair of end faces of the pockets formed in the cage are formed by surfaces formed by cutting after hardening so that the surface hardness of the end faces is lower than that of the pair of side faces of the pockets opposing in the axial direction of the cage, it is possible to impart toughness to the bridge portions formed between the pockets. Thus, the tensile and torsional strength of the bridge portions improve and strength of the cage is improved. [0075]
