摘要： A low spring rate multi-convoluted collapsible spacer adapted for use as a bearing preloading element. The collapsible spacer comprises a substantially tubular body compressible in an axial direction thereof from a predetermined free length to a substantially shorter length. The tubular body includes a yielding zone and an elastic zone adjacent to said yielding zone. Each of the yielding and elastic zones has at least one convolution curved in the same radial direction. An average thickness of the body of the spacer in the elastic zone is substantially greater than an average thickness of the body in the yielding zone that provides the collapsible spacer a substantially higher resiliency in the axial direction in the elastic zone than in the yielding zone. As a whole, the collapsible spacer has a relatively low spring rate, thus larger amount of “spring back”, hence less sensitivity to wear and maladjustment.

摘要翻译： 适用于作为轴承预加载元件的低弹簧倍率的多回路可折叠间隔件。 可折叠间隔件包括从预定的自由长度到基本上较短的长度在其轴向上可压缩的基本上管状的主体。 管状体包括屈服区和邻近所述屈服区的弹性区。 每个屈服区域和弹性区域具有在相同径向方向上弯曲的至少一个卷积。 弹性区域中间隔件的主体的平均厚度基本上大于屈服区域中的本体的平均厚度，其在弹性区域中提供可屈曲间隔件在轴向方向上的回弹力大于在屈服区域中的弹性。 总的来说，可折叠的间隔件具有相对较低的弹簧弹性，因此具有较大量的“弹回”，因此对磨损和失调的敏感度较低。

摘要： A hub (2) includes a spindle (14) which projects through a housing (4) and rotates relative to the housing (4) on a bearing (6) that is located between the spindle (14) and the housing (4). The bearing (6) has two sets of raceways (28,40) that are oblique to the axis x, and in addition rolling elements (36) arranged in two rows between the sets of raceways (28,40). The inner raceways (28) that fit around the spindle (14) and have back faces (32), with the back face (32) for one of the races (26) being against a shoulder (18) from which the spindle (14) projects. Initially, the end of the spindle (14) projects straight beyond the back face (32) of the outer race—indeed, so that the races (26) can be installed over the spindle (14). But once the housing (4) and races (26) are in a position around the spindle (14), the projecting end portion of the spindle (14) is deformed radially and axially in a rotary forming operation such that it transforms into a formed end (20) that lies behind back face (32) of the race (26). With the two races (26) between the formed end (20) and the shoulder (18). During the rotary forming operation the hub (26) rotates, and the end of its spindle (14) is forced against a rotating forming tool and the force is monitored. The housing (4) is restrained and the torque transferred from the rotating hub (2) to the housing (4) is monitored.

摘要： A hub assembly includes a hub having a spindle with a flange and a shoulder at one end of the spindle and a formed end turned outwardly at the other end of the spindle. In addition, the hub assembly includes a bearing having two cones set end to end and an outer race in the form of a housing located around the cones, and tapered rollers arranged in two rows between the outer race and cones. Initially the formed end of the spindle exists as an axially directed end portion of the spindle. The bearing is installed over this end portion and moved further along the spindle to bring the back face of one of its cones against the shoulder on the flange. The back face of the other cone lies at the end of a spline that leads out to the end portion on the spindle. A coupler ring having exterior and interior splines is installed over the spindle end porotion with its interior spline engaged with the spindle spline. Thereupon a circular clip is installed over the skpindle end portion and brought against the end of the interior spline on the coupler ring. The clip has circular cross-section, and this presents a contoured surface of generous radius beyond the interior spline. Finally, by rotary forming the spindle end portion is deformed over the contoured surface of the clip and against the end face of the coupler ring to create the formed end, so that the coupler ring and cone of the bearing lie captured between the formed end and the shoulder. Torque is transferred to the hub through the coupler ring when the ring is engaged with a drive train.
