Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、トリポートタイプ等の等速ジョイントに取り付けられる樹脂ブーツ組立体に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
前輪駆動車などの車両のドライブシャフトには、等速ジョイントが使用されている。この等速ジョイント内部への塵埃や水の侵入防止、及びジョイント内部のグリス等の漏出防止のためのカバー体として、従来より蛇腹状の樹脂ブーツが用いられジョイント内部をシールしている。
【0003】
周方向に凹凸部を交互に有する非円形なアウターケースを備えるトリポートタイプ等の等速ジョイントにおいては、断面略円形を有する樹脂ブーツの径大側取付部をアウターケースに取り付けるために、外周側が略円形をなし内周側がアウターケース外周の凹凸形状に対応する非円形形状をなしたブッシュをアウターケースと径大側取付部との間に配して用いることがある。
【0004】
上記のようなブーツとブッシュの組立体として、ブーツの内周側とブッシュの外周側とにそれぞれ複数のリブと溝を設け、この複数のリブと溝とを互いに噛み合わせることによりブーツとブッシュを一体に組み立て、ブッシュを介してブーツを等速ジョイントに取り付けるものがある(例えば、特許文献1参照。)。
【0005】
【特許文献1】
米国特許第6,089,574号明細書
【0006】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかし、上記特許文献1に記載のブーツおよびブッシュでは、ブーツ内周側及びブッシュ外周側に互いに噛み合う複数のリブと溝とを有することから、そのリブと溝との形状を精度よく成形することが難しいという問題がある。
【0007】
また、ブーツとブッシュとの組立作業では、ブーツの内周に対してブッシュを挿入する際に、複数のリブと溝とが互いに接触し合うため挿入しづらいという問題もある。
【0008】
本発明は、円形断面を有する樹脂ブーツの径大側取付部を等速ジョイントの非円形なアウターケースに対して安定して取り付けるための樹脂ブーツとブッシュとからなる組立体であり、ブーツ及びブッシュの成形がしやすく寸法精度に優れ、ブーツのシール性を確保し、かつブーツの取り付け時には挿入しやすく、装着後はブーツが抜けにくい樹脂ブーツ組立体を提供するものである。
【0009】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明の樹脂ブーツ組立体は、樹脂ブーツとブッシュを備えてなり、周方向に凹凸部を交互に有する非円形なアウターケースとシャフトを備える等速ジョイントに取り付けられる樹脂ブーツ組立体であって、前記樹脂ブーツは、前記アウターケースに取り付けられる略円形断面の径大側取付部と、シャフトに取り付けられる径小側取付部と、前記両取付部間の蛇腹部とが樹脂材料により一体成形されてなり、前記ブッシュは、前記径大側取付部と前記アウターケースの間に配されるものであって、その外周側が略円形状をなし、かつ内周側が前記アウターケースの凹凸部を交互に有する外周形状に対応する非円形状をなしており、前記ブッシュの外周面は、前記径大側取付部の外周を締め付けることによって前記径大側取付部の内周面に密着される結合部を備え、該結合部よりも蛇腹部側の周上に径方向外方に突出する突起が設けられたことを特徴とする。
【0010】
本発明の樹脂ブーツ組立体では、樹脂ブーツ及びブッシュが複雑な形状を有さないため成形がしやすく、また寸法精度を良好にすることができ、結合部での樹脂ブーツとブッシュとの密着性を向上しシール性を確保することができる。
【0011】
また、樹脂ブーツの取り付け時に、径大側取付部がブッシュの蛇腹側周上の突起を乗り越えて挿入されるので樹脂ブーツのアウターケースへの装着作業時の挿入確認が容易となり、またブーツの抜け防止となる。
【0012】
前記ブッシュにおける突起は、前記径大側取付部に接触することが好ましく、これにより、突起上端部と径大側取付部内周面とに接触圧力が発生し、樹脂ブーツのシール性を向上することができる。
【0013】
この場合、突起の外径が径大側取付部の内周径よりも大であると、両者が圧接されることにより密着性をより高めことができる。
【0014】
また、前記ブッシュにおける突起の端部を収容する凹部を、前記径大側取付部の内周に設けることで気密性をより向上させシール性を確実なものとする。
【0015】
前記ブッシュにおける前記結合部が、鏡面状の平坦面からなるものであれば、結合部と径大側取付部の内周面とが全周に渡り面接触し、かつ接触面の間に高い摩擦係数が発生することで密着性を向上し樹脂ブーツとブッシュとのシール性を確保することができる。
【0016】
前記ブッシュにおける前記結合部は、周上に突条を設けることにより、径大側取付部の外周を締め付けることで突条の先端部或いは全体が径大側取付部側の内周面に食い込んだ状態で接触し、ブッシュと樹脂ブーツとのシール性を十分に確保することができる。
【0017】
【発明の実施の形態】
次に本発明の実施の形態を図面に基づいて具体的に説明する。
【0018】
(第1の実施形態)
図1〜図4は第1の実施形態を示し、図1は樹脂ブーツ3(以下、ブーツという)をブッシュ4を配してトリポートタイプの等速ジョイント1に取り付けた状態の縦断面図、図2は図1におけるブッシュ4部分の横断面概略図であり、図3はブッシュ4の薄肉部42におけるブーツ3の取り付け前の分解断面図、図4は図1の薄肉部42の部分断面図である。
【0019】
この等速ジョイント1は、一方のシャフト16にローラ11を持つ3本のトラニオン12を軸直角方向に突設して構成したトリポート13と、他方のシャフト20の端部に設けたアウターケース14とからなり、アウターケース14はその内周にトリポート13と対応する軸方向の3本の摺動溝15を形成するための凹部17と凸部18を交互に有し、ローラ11がこの溝15に嵌め合わされて軸方向の摺動および両シャフトの角度付けを可能にし、エンジンの回転駆動を伝達するように構成されている。
【0020】
ブーツ3は、等速ジョイント1のアウターケース14に取り付けられる円形断面を有する径大側取付部31と、トリポート13側のシャフト16に取付けられる径小側取付部32と、これら両取付部31,32を連接するテーパ状の蛇腹部33とからなり、これらがポリエステル系熱可塑性エラストマーによりブロー成形によって全体が円形断面かつ略一定厚みに一体成形されたものである。
【0021】
径大側取付部31は、外周にクランプリング28の装着溝34を設け、その装着溝34の内周側はブッシュ4の結合部48と密着結合されるように全周に渡り平坦な内周面35が形成されている。また、内周面35と蛇腹部33の間には、内周面35よりも増径された増径部38が設けられている。
【0022】
図に示すように、ブーツ3は、ブッシュ4を径大側取付部31とアウターケース14の間に配して、このブッシュ4を介して径大側取付部31の装着溝34に巻回されたクランプリング28を締め付け固定することにより、アウターケース14外周に対して取り付けられている。
【0023】
このブッシュ4は、外周側が径大側取付部31の内周に対応する円形形状であり、内周側はアウターケース14の外周形状に対応する非円形形状をなし、即ちアウターケース14の凹部17に対応する内側への凸状をなす厚肉部41と、凸部18に対応する薄肉部42とを交互に有するリング状に形成されている。
【0024】
これにより、ブッシュ4はアウターケース14の凹部17に対して厚肉部41が、凸部18に対して薄肉部42が填め合わされて装着され、その円形形状の外周に樹脂ブーツ3の径大側取付部31の円形状内周が嵌合され取り付けられるようになっている。
【0025】
或いは、予めブーツ3の径大側取付部31の内側にブッシュ4を挿入し固定した組立体を形成しておき、この組立体をアウターケース14に取り付けてもよい。
【0026】
図3及び図4の拡大図に示すように、ブッシュ4の結合部48の周上には、径大側取付部31の内周面35に対応する周上に三角形断面の複数本(図では2本)の突条47が設けられている。
【0027】
また、ブッシュ4の外周部には、結合部48からブーツ3の蛇腹部33側に外れた周上に、径方向外方に突出する突条46が設けられている。これにより、ブーツ3の取り付け時に径大側取付部31の内周面35が突条46を乗り越えるようにして挿入され、挿入が完了した後は突条46が増径部38に収容されるので、ブーツ3の装着作業時の挿入完了の確認が容易となると共に、装着後のブーツ3の抜け防止となる。
【0028】
この突条46は、ブッシュ4の周方向に連続して径大側取付部31の内周面35と全周に渡って接触するように設けられたものであれば、蛇腹部33側での径大側取付部31とブッシュ4とのシール性を得る効果を奏するが、周上に不連続な突起であっても上記作業性や抜け防止の効果は達せられる。
【0029】
また、ブッシュ4の反蛇腹側端部の周上には径方向外方に向かう突起45が設けられ、径大側取付部31の挿入時にその端部をこの突起45で止めることで軸方向の位置決めストッパーの役割をし、ブーツ3の正確な装着と装着作業性を向上すると共に装着後のずれを防ぐ機能を果たしている。従って、突起45は周上に所定間隔を置いて設けた不連続の突起であってもよい。
【0030】
さらに、ブッシュ4の蛇腹側端部には、アウターケース14端部側面に当接する爪部44が内方に向かって設けられ、ブッシュ4の装着時の位置決めを容易にしている。
【0031】
なお、ブッシュ4とアウターケース14の間は、薄肉部42ではアウターケース14のシール用溝19に突条43が嵌合し、また厚肉部41ではアウターケース14との間に十分な面圧が得られることにより良好なシール性が確保されている。
【0032】
このブッシュ4は、樹脂ブーツ3と同様のポリエステル系、ポリオレフィン系などの熱可塑性エラストマーから、射出成形等の通常の樹脂成形法により容易に成形することができ、凹凸部を交互に有する内周形状のブッシュ4においても成形精度の高い成形品が容易に得られ、相手部材との良好な形状一致性を得ることができる。なお、ブッシュ4の樹脂材料は、ブーツ3と硬度が異なる樹脂を適宜選択し用いることができる。
【0033】
アウターケース14と径大側取付部31の間にブッシュ4を配した上記構成において、径大側取付部31の装着溝34に巻回されたクランプリング28により締め付け固定することで、結合部48の2本の突条47が、その三角形断面を径大側取付部31の内周面35に食い込むように接触すると共に、径大側取付部31の内周面35と結合部48の平坦部分とが全周に渡り接触することで、突条部47では高い接触圧を生じ、また平坦部分では十分な密着性を得てシール性を確保することができる。
【0034】
従って、上記樹脂ブーツ組立体では、ブーツの内周面35及びブッシュの結合部48が平坦な外周面或いはそれに突条を設けたもので形成されるので、その製造において成形が容易となり寸法精度にも優れ良好なシール性を確保すると共に、装着作業性の向上やブーツの抜け防止にも寄与することができる。
【0035】
(第2の実施形態)
図5は第2の実施形態のブッシュ5の薄肉部52におけるブーツ3の取り付け前の分解断面図、図6はブーツ3装着時のブッシュ5の薄肉部52の部分拡大断面図である。この第2の実施形態では、ブッシュ5の結合部58の周上に設けた突条の形態が第1の実施形態と異なっている。なお、ブーツ3の取り付け状態は図1および図2の示すものと同様のものであり、図面及び説明を省略する(下記の第3、第4の実施形態にても同様に省略する。)。
【0036】
ブッシュ5は、図2に示すブッシュ4と同様に、外周が円形形状であり、内周側は厚肉部と薄肉部52とを交互に配した非円形形状を有すリング状に形成されたもので、アウターケース14と径大側取付部31の間に配されブーツ3を取り付けている。
【0037】
ブッシュ5の結合部58には、径大側取付部31の内周面35に対応する位置に半円形断面の複数本(図では3本)の突条57が周方向に設けられている。
【0038】
また、第1の実施形態と同様に、ブッシュ5の結合部58を外れた外周部には径方向外方に突出する突条56が、反蛇腹側端部の周上には径方向外方に向かう位置決めストッパーの突起55が設けられ、また蛇腹側端部にはアウターケース14端部側面に当接する爪部54が設けられ、さらにブッシュ5の薄肉部52内周側にはアウターケース14のシール用溝19に嵌合する突条53が設けられており、上記第1の実施形態と同様の効果を奏している。
【0039】
図6に示すように、アウターケース14と径大側取付部31の間にブッシュ5を配した構成において、径大側取付部31の装着溝34に巻回されたクランプリング28により締め付け固定することにより、ブッシュ5の3本の突条57が径大側取付部31の内周面35に対して先端部分が部分的に食い込むように接触し、内周面35と結合部58の突条57との間に高い接触圧が発生し両者の間に良好な密閉性が得られることで、ブーツ3のシール性を確保することができるようになる。
【0040】
(第3の実施形態)
図7は第3の実施形態のブッシュ6の薄肉部62におけるブーツ3の取り付け前の分解断面図、図8はブーツ3装着時のブッシュ6の薄肉部62の部分拡大断面図である。
【0041】
ブッシュ6は、図2に示すブッシュ4と同様に、外周側が円形形状であり、内周側は厚肉部と薄肉部62とを交互に配した非円形形状を有するリング状に形成され、アウターケース14と径大側取付部31の間に配されブーツ3を取り付けている。
【0042】
ブッシュ6の結合部68は鏡面仕上げ等による鏡面状の平坦面に形成されている。
【0043】
例えば、上記鏡面仕上げは、ブッシュ6の成形に用いる金型を、金型内面の上記結合部部分を鏡面状に仕上げした金型を使用することにより得られる。
【0044】
ブッシュ6の蛇腹部33側の外周端部には、端部側面に沿って径方向外方に向けて上端部が径大側取付部31の内周に接触するように増径部38の内周径よりも外径がやや大である突条66が、蛇腹部33側に片寄る曲面を形成して全周に渡り設けられている。もちろん、この突条66は上記の装着作業性向上やブーツの抜け防止の効果を有するものである。
【0045】
また、ブッシュ6の反蛇腹側端部の周上には径方向外方に向かう径大側取付部31の位置決めストッパーの突起65が、蛇腹側端部には内方に向けてアウターケース14端部側面に当接する爪部64が設けられ、またブッシュ6の薄肉部62内周側にはアウターケース14のシール用溝19に嵌合する突条63が設けられ、上記第1の実施形態と同様にブッシュ6の位置決めやずれの防止、アウターケース14とのシール性を確保している。
【0046】
図に示すように、クランプリング28により径大側取付部31の外周を締め付け固定することで、ブッシュ6の結合部68の平坦な外周面は径大側取付部31の内周面35と全周に渡り接触し、かつその鏡面仕上げ等による鏡面状の平坦面は高い摩擦係数が発生することで良好な密着性が得られ、ブーツ3とのシール性を十分に確保することができる。
【0047】
また、突条66は、径大側取付部31の増径部38に収容され、突条66の上端部が増径部38の内周側に押し付けられるように接触することで、ブッシュ6と径大側取付部31とのシール性を向上することができる。
【0048】
この突条66は、蛇腹部33側に片寄る曲面を有するものであるが、増径部38に対して直立して設けたものでもよい。
【0049】
(第4の実施形態)
図9は第4の実施形態のブッシュ7の薄肉部72におけるブーツ3の取り付け前の分解断面図、図10はブーツ3装着時のブッシュ7の薄肉部72の部分拡大断面図である。この第4の実施形態では、ブッシュ7の蛇腹側の外周端部に設けた突起76の形態が上記第3の実施形態と異なっている。
【0050】
ブッシュ7は、図2に示すブッシュ4と同様に、外周側が円形形状であり、内周側は厚肉部と薄肉部72とを交互に有する非円形なリング状に形成されている。
【0051】
ブッシュ7の結合部78は鏡面仕上げ等による鏡面状の平坦面に形成されている。
【0052】
ブッシュ7の蛇腹33側の外周端部には、端部側面に沿って径方向外方に向けて外径が径大側取付部31の増径部38の内周径よりも大である突条76が全周に渡り設けられている。
【0053】
また、増径部38の内周側には、突条76の上端の径大部分を収納するための凹み36が内周上に設けられている。この凹み36の内周径は、突条76の上端部を収納した際に互いに圧縮し合うようにするため、突条76の外周よりも若干小径にしておくのが好ましい。また、図に示すように、この凹み36形成による増径部38の厚み不足を補うため、凹み36に対応する凸部37をその外周上に設けてもよい。
【0054】
ブッシュ7でも、上記第1の実施形態と同様に、反蛇腹側端部の周上に径方向外方に向かう位置決めストッパーの突起75が設けられ、また蛇腹側端部にはアウターケース14端部側面に当接する爪部74が設けられ、また薄肉部72の内周側にはアウターケース14のシール用溝19に嵌合する突条73が設けられ、上記実施形態と同様の効果を奏している。
【0055】
図に示すように、クランプリング28により締め付け固定することで、ブッシュ7の結合部78の平坦な外周面は径大側取付部31の内周面35と全周に渡り接触し、その鏡面仕上げ等による鏡面状の平坦面は高い摩擦係数が発生することで良好な密着性が得られ、ブッシュ7とブーツ3とのシール性を良好に確保している。
【0056】
また、突条76の上端部が増径部38の凹み36内に互いに圧縮し合うように密着状態で収納されるので、ブーツ3の蛇腹部33側でのブッシュ7とのシール性を確実なものとする。
【0057】
なお、上記各実施形態では、ブッシュ4〜7の各薄肉部42,52,62,72に基づいて説明したが、リング状ブッシュの厚肉部やその境界部など他の部位においても薄肉部と同様にシール性が確保されている。
【0058】
【発明の効果】
以上説明したように、本発明の樹脂ブーツ組立体によれば、等速ジョイントの非円形形状をなすアウターケースに対して、樹脂ブーツの円形断面を有する径大側取付部をその全周に渡り良好なシール性を確保し取り付けることができ、また、ブーツやブッシュの部材の成形性がよく製造しやすく、さらに装着作業性を向上し、ブーツの抜けを防止することができる。

Preferably, the projection on the bush contacts the large-diameter mounting portion, whereby a contact pressure is generated between the upper end of the projection and the inner peripheral surface of the large-diameter mounting portion, and the sealing performance of the resin boot is improved. Can be.
[0013]
In this case, when the outer diameter of the projection is larger than the inner diameter of the larger-diameter mounting portion, the two can be pressed into contact with each other to further enhance the adhesion.
[0014]
Further, by providing a recess for accommodating the end of the projection in the bush on the inner periphery of the large-diameter mounting portion, the airtightness is further improved and the sealing performance is ensured.
[0015]
If the coupling portion of the bush is formed of a mirror-like flat surface, the coupling portion and the inner peripheral surface of the large-diameter mounting portion make surface contact over the entire circumference, and high friction between the contact surfaces. When the coefficient is generated, the adhesiveness is improved, and the sealing property between the resin boot and the bush can be ensured.
[0016]

1 to 4 show a first embodiment, and FIG. 1 is a longitudinal sectional view showing a state in which a resin boot 3 (hereinafter, referred to as a boot) is mounted on a tripod-type constant velocity joint 1 with a bush 4 arranged therein. 2 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a portion of the bush 4 in FIG. 1, FIG. 3 is an exploded cross-sectional view of the thin portion 42 of the bush 4 before mounting the boot 3, and FIG. 4 is a partial cross-sectional view of the thin portion 42 of FIG. It is.
[0019]
The constant velocity joint 1 includes a tripport 13 formed by protruding three trunnions 12 each having a roller 11 on one shaft 16 in a direction perpendicular to the axis, and an outer case 14 provided at an end of the other shaft 20. The outer case 14 has concave portions 17 and convex portions 18 for forming three sliding grooves 15 in the axial direction corresponding to the tripod 13 alternately on the inner periphery thereof. It is configured to be fitted to allow axial sliding and angling of both shafts and to transmit the rotational drive of the engine.
[0020]
The boot 3 includes a large-diameter mounting portion 31 having a circular cross section that is mounted on the outer case 14 of the constant velocity joint 1, a small-diameter mounting portion 32 that is mounted on the shaft 16 on the trip port 13 side, and both mounting portions 31. 32 are formed in a tapered bellows part 33 which is continuous with the base member 32 and are integrally formed to have a circular cross section and a substantially constant thickness by blow molding using a polyester thermoplastic elastomer.
[0021]
The large-diameter mounting portion 31 is provided with a mounting groove 34 for the clamp ring 28 on the outer periphery, and the inner peripheral side of the mounting groove 34 is flat over the entire circumference so as to be tightly connected to the coupling portion 48 of the bush 4. A surface 35 is formed. Further, between the inner peripheral surface 35 and the bellows portion 33, a diameter-increased portion 38 whose diameter is larger than that of the inner peripheral surface 35 is provided.
[0022]
As shown in the figure, the boot 3 has the bush 4 disposed between the large-diameter mounting portion 31 and the outer case 14, and is wound around the mounting groove 34 of the large-diameter mounting portion 31 via the bush 4. The outer ring 14 is attached to the outer case 14 by tightening and fixing the clamp ring 28.
[0023]
The bush 4 has a circular shape on the outer peripheral side corresponding to the inner periphery of the large-diameter mounting portion 31, and the inner peripheral side has a non-circular shape corresponding to the outer peripheral shape of the outer case 14, that is, the recess 17 of the outer case 14. Are formed in a ring shape alternately having thick portions 41 having an inward convex shape corresponding to the convex portions and thin portions 42 corresponding to the convex portions 18.
[0024]
As a result, the bush 4 is mounted with the thick portion 41 fitted into the concave portion 17 of the outer case 14 and the thin portion 42 fitted with the convex portion 18, and the outer periphery of the circular shape has the large diameter side of the resin boot 3. The circular inner periphery of the mounting portion 31 is fitted and mounted.
[0025]
Alternatively, an assembly may be formed in which the bush 4 is inserted and fixed inside the large-diameter attachment portion 31 of the boot 3 in advance, and this assembly may be attached to the outer case 14.
[0026]
As shown in the enlarged views of FIGS. 3 and 4, on the circumference of the connecting portion 48 of the bush 4, a plurality of triangular cross sections (in the drawings, on the circumference corresponding to the inner circumferential surface 35 of the large-diameter mounting portion 31). (Two) ridges 47 are provided.
[0027]
Further, on the outer peripheral portion of the bush 4, a ridge 46 is provided on a periphery of the bush 4, the ridge 46 protruding outward in the radial direction, on the circumference deviating from the coupling portion 48 toward the bellows portion 33 of the boot 3. As a result, when the boot 3 is mounted, the inner peripheral surface 35 of the large-diameter side mounting portion 31 is inserted so as to get over the ridge 46, and after the insertion is completed, the ridge 46 is housed in the increased-diameter portion 38. In addition, it is easy to confirm the completion of insertion during the mounting operation of the boot 3, and it is possible to prevent the boot 3 from coming off after the mounting.
[0028]
If the ridge 46 is provided so as to continuously contact in the circumferential direction of the bush 4 with the inner peripheral surface 35 of the large-diameter mounting portion 31 over the entire circumference, the ridge 46 on the bellows portion 33 side is provided. Although the effect of obtaining the sealing property between the large-diameter side attachment portion 31 and the bush 4 is obtained, the above-described workability and the effect of preventing detachment can be achieved even with a discontinuous projection on the periphery.
[0029]
Further, a protrusion 45 is provided on the circumference of the end opposite to the bellows side of the bush 4 so as to extend outward in the radial direction. It functions as a positioning stopper, improves the correct mounting of the boot 3 and improves the mounting workability, and also functions to prevent displacement after mounting. Therefore, the projections 45 may be discontinuous projections provided at predetermined intervals on the circumference.
[0030]
Further, at the bellows-side end of the bush 4, a claw portion 44 is provided inwardly, which comes into contact with the end side surface of the outer case 14, to facilitate positioning when the bush 4 is mounted.
[0031]
In addition, between the bush 4 and the outer case 14, the ridge 43 is fitted in the sealing groove 19 of the outer case 14 in the thin portion 42, and sufficient surface pressure is applied between the bush 4 and the outer case 14 in the thick portion 41. , Good sealing properties are secured.
[0032]
This bush 4 can be easily formed from the same thermoplastic elastomer such as polyester or polyolefin as the resin boot 3 by a normal resin molding method such as injection molding, and has an inner peripheral shape having irregularities alternately. Also in the bush 4 described above, a molded product with high molding accuracy can be easily obtained, and good shape matching with the mating member can be obtained. As the resin material of the bush 4, a resin having a hardness different from that of the boot 3 can be appropriately selected and used.
[0033]
In the above-described configuration in which the bush 4 is arranged between the outer case 14 and the large-diameter mounting portion 31, the coupling portion 48 is tightened and fixed by the clamp ring 28 wound around the mounting groove 34 of the large-diameter mounting portion 31. The two ridges 47 contact the triangular cross section so as to bite into the inner peripheral surface 35 of the large-diameter mounting portion 31, and the inner peripheral surface 35 of the large-diameter mounting portion 31 and the flat portion of the coupling portion 48. Are contacted over the entire circumference, so that a high contact pressure is generated in the ridge portion 47, and sufficient adhesion can be obtained in a flat portion to ensure sealing performance.
[0034]
Therefore, in the resin boot assembly, since the inner peripheral surface 35 of the boot and the connecting portion 48 of the bush are formed of a flat outer peripheral surface or a member provided with a ridge, the molding is easy and the dimensional accuracy is improved. In addition to ensuring excellent sealing performance, it can contribute to improvement in mounting workability and prevention of the boot from coming off.
[0035]
(Second embodiment)
FIG. 5 is an exploded sectional view of the thin portion 52 of the bush 5 according to the second embodiment before the boot 3 is attached, and FIG. 6 is a partially enlarged sectional view of the thin portion 52 of the bush 5 when the boot 3 is mounted. In the second embodiment, the form of the ridge provided on the periphery of the connecting portion 58 of the bush 5 is different from that of the first embodiment. Note that the mounting state of the boot 3 is the same as that shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, and the drawings and description are omitted (the same applies to the following third and fourth embodiments).
[0036]
Like the bush 4 shown in FIG. 2, the bush 5 has a circular shape on the outer periphery and a ring shape on the inner peripheral side having a non-circular shape in which thick portions and thin portions 52 are alternately arranged. The boot 3 is mounted between the outer case 14 and the large-diameter mounting portion 31.
[0037]
The connecting portion 58 of the bush 5 is provided with a plurality of (three in the figure) protrusions 57 having a semicircular cross section at positions corresponding to the inner peripheral surface 35 of the large-diameter attachment portion 31 in the circumferential direction.
[0038]
As in the first embodiment, a ridge 56 projecting radially outward is provided on an outer peripheral portion of the bush 5 from which the connecting portion 58 is removed, and a radially outward ridge 56 is provided on the periphery of the anti-bellows side end. A projection 55 of a positioning stopper toward the outer case 14 is provided, a claw portion 54 is provided at the bellows side end to abut against an end side surface of the outer case 14, and the outer case 14 is provided on an inner peripheral side of the thin portion 52 of the bush 5. Protrusions 53 that fit into the sealing grooves 19 are provided, and have the same effects as in the first embodiment.
[0039]
As shown in FIG. 6, in a configuration in which the bush 5 is disposed between the outer case 14 and the large-diameter mounting portion 31, the bush 5 is tightened and fixed by the clamp ring 28 wound around the mounting groove 34 of the large-diameter mounting portion 31. As a result, the three ridges 57 of the bush 5 come into contact with the inner peripheral surface 35 of the large-diameter side attachment portion 31 so that the leading end portions partially bite, and the ridges of the inner peripheral surface 35 and the connecting portion 58 are formed. Since a high contact pressure is generated between the two and 57 and a good sealing property is obtained between them, the sealing property of the boot 3 can be ensured.
[0040]
(Third embodiment)
7 is an exploded cross-sectional view of the thin portion 62 of the bush 6 according to the third embodiment before the boot 3 is attached, and FIG. 8 is a partially enlarged cross-sectional view of the thin portion 62 of the bush 6 when the boot 3 is mounted.

For example, the mirror finish can be obtained by using a mold used for molding the bush 6 and a mold in which the joint portion on the inner surface of the mold is mirror-finished.
[0044]
The outer peripheral end of the bush 6 on the bellows portion 33 side is formed inside the increased diameter portion 38 such that the upper end portion contacts the inner periphery of the large-diameter attachment portion 31 radially outward along the end side surface. A ridge 66 whose outer diameter is slightly larger than the circumferential diameter forms a curved surface leaning toward the bellows portion 33 and is provided over the entire circumference. Of course, the ridges 66 have the effect of improving the mounting workability and preventing the boots from coming off.
[0045]
Further, a protrusion 65 of a positioning stopper of the large-diameter side mounting portion 31 which faces radially outward is provided on the periphery of the opposite bellows end of the bush 6, and the outer case 14 ends inward at the bellows side end. A claw portion 64 is provided in contact with the side surface of the outer case 14, and a protrusion 63 is provided on the inner peripheral side of the thin portion 62 of the bush 6 so as to fit into the sealing groove 19 of the outer case 14. Similarly, the positioning and the displacement of the bush 6 are prevented, and the sealing property with the outer case 14 is ensured.
[0046]
As shown in the figure, by clamping and fixing the outer periphery of the large-diameter mounting portion 31 by the clamp ring 28, the flat outer peripheral surface of the coupling portion 68 of the bush 6 and the inner peripheral surface 35 of the large-diameter mounting portion 31 are entirely formed. The mirror-like flat surface which is in contact with the periphery and which is mirror-finished or the like has a high coefficient of friction, whereby good adhesion can be obtained, and sufficient sealing with the boot 3 can be ensured.
[0047]
Further, the ridge 66 is accommodated in the increased diameter portion 38 of the large-diameter attachment portion 31, and the upper end of the ridge 66 contacts the inner peripheral side of the increased diameter portion 38 so as to come into contact with the bush 6. The sealing performance with the large-diameter mounting portion 31 can be improved.
[0048]
The ridge 66 has a curved surface that is offset toward the bellows portion 33, but may be provided upright with respect to the increased diameter portion 38.
[0049]

A ridge 76 is provided all around.
[0053]
A recess 36 for accommodating a large diameter portion at the upper end of the ridge 76 is provided on the inner periphery of the inner diameter side of the diameter increasing portion 38. The inner diameter of the recess 36 is preferably slightly smaller than the outer circumference of the protrusion 76 in order to compress each other when the upper end of the protrusion 76 is stored. Further, as shown in the figure, in order to compensate for the insufficient thickness of the diameter-increased portion 38 due to the formation of the recess 36, a convex portion 37 corresponding to the recess 36 may be provided on the outer periphery thereof.
[0054]
As in the first embodiment, the bush 7 is also provided with a projection 75 of a positioning stopper directed outward in the radial direction on the periphery of the opposite side of the bellows side, and the end of the outer case 14 at the bellows side end.
