Heat is applied, causing the rubber to vulcanize in place resulting in a one-piece compliant sprocket.
- US 5,722,295 discloses an injection molded crankshaft gear which is made by placing sintered iron insert ring and forming the outside portion and teeth portion of the gear by injection molding a resin and then heat treating the molding so that certain properties are present.
- US 5,333,668 discloses a process for coating the surface of a ferrous insert with a thin layer of metallic bonding material enabling the coated insert to be united with molten aluminum where the molten aluminum is poured onto the coated insert. In another embodiment, the aluminum or ferrous liner insert is preheated and placed in the engine and molten aluminum is poured into the mold to surround the outer surface of the liner.
- JP 11200819 discloses a camshaft of an over head cam (OHC) engine that drives an intake and exhaust valve that is formed of a synthetic resin and is integrally formed by injection molding with a metal sprocket.
- Another solution is JP06225505, which discloses aluminum injected into slot holes and ring shapes in the rotor core of an induction motor.
- JP 2000297614 discloses a gear and a housing that are integrally provided on an intake camshaft, such that the gear and the housing may rotate. A vane rotor housed in a chamber between the gear and the housing is fastened to the end portion of the intake camshaft to rotate integrally therewith. The housing and the rotor are made of aluminum-type metals. A thin metal sheet of steel is interposed between the vane rotor and the housing.
- A variable cam timing phaser for an internal combustion engine having at least one camshaft comprising a housing, a rotor, and a driving element. The housing is has an outer circumference for accepting drive force, a circular notched groove, and is made of a first material. The notched groove may be axially centered between the leading and trailing edges of the housing or adjacent to either of the leading or trailing edges of the housing. The rotor connects to a camshaft coaxially located within the housing. The driving element is made of a second material and is coaxially located around the outer circumference of the housing. The first material is aluminum or magnesium and the second material is steel. The driving element may be a gear or a sprocket. The driving element may be axially centered on the housing.
