(Prior art) In recent years, due to the demand for lighter power transmission shafts used in vehicles, etc., continuous fiber reinforced plastics (hereinafter referred to as F
The development of a power transmission shaft using a molded body made of FRP (RP) is progressing, but in this case, it is necessary to connect a metal yoke to both ends of the FRP pipe, and various methods have been used for this connection. Efforts have been made. For example, the joint part of an FRP pipe and a yoke may have a circular cross section, an elliptical cross section, or a polygonal cross section that can fit together,
There are methods of adhesive bonding after molding and hardening of RP pipes, press-fit bonding methods, and methods of incorporating the yoke itself or a part of it into a mandrel and rolling it in during filament winding to form FRP pipes. Yes, each has its advantages and disadvantages.

By the way, in the case of the method of press-fitting a metal yoke into an FRP pipe, the joint part of the FRP vibrator suffers fatigue damage due to repeated application of driving force and braking force.
In addition, there is a problem that FRP is prone to delamination and adhesive layer peeling, and when looking at metal yokes,
Frequently, fretting occurs due to micro-friction occurring at the joint surface, which may lead to peeling of the adhesive layer. One method for dealing with these problems is to use an outer ring. For example, Utsukai 61-1626
As disclosed in Publication No. 19, after the fitting part of the yoke is press-fitted into the FRP vibrator, the pipe around the fitting part is tightened with an outer ring, so that the joint surface of the pipe and the yoke is tightened. A method has been proposed to make peeling less likely to occur.

(Problem to be solved by the invention) In the case of the above-mentioned known example, after the yoke is press-fitted into the pipe,
Since the outer ring is fitted while applying a compressive force to the outer circumference of the pipe that bulges out due to the press-fitting, the press-fitting process is performed twice at the same location, which slows down the manufacturing process. There is a risk that the process will become more complicated, and
There is also a risk of a decrease in press force due to creep phenomenon, etc. In addition, in the case of the above-mentioned known example, the transmission of torque between the pipe and the yoke depends only on the inner circumferential surface of the pipe, so most of the torque is transmitted near the fitting ends of the two. As a result, a high stress concentration occurs in that part. Therefore, there is a possibility that fatigue damage will be insufficiently suppressed.

(Effects of the Invention) According to the present invention, when manufacturing a power transmission shaft by fitting and fixing a fitting portion of a yoke to a plastic 7-vee, an outer ring is attached to the outer periphery of the end of the pipe. Since the fitting part of the yoke is press-fitted into the pipe in the set state, the outer ring can tighten the pipe at the same time as the yoke is press-fitted, which simplifies the press-fitting process. This has the excellent effect of suppressing a decrease in press force due to creep phenomena and the like.

In addition, since the outer ring end and the yoke are connected so that they can rotate together during or after the yoke is press-fitted, torque transmission between the yoke and the pipe is transmitted not only from the inner circumferential surface of the pipe but also from the outer ring. This is also done from the outer circumferential surface via the ring, which has the excellent effect of suppressing wear due to micro-friction that occurs on the joint surfaces, as well as suppressing glabella peeling etc. even when the pipe is made of FRP. .

Next, the outer ring 3 having such a structure is inserted while being positioned around the outer periphery of the end of the vibrator 1, and the part where the serrations 4 are formed extends from the end of the vibrator 1 as shown in FIG. considered to be in a prominent state. At this time, if adhesive is applied to the inner circumferential surface of the outer ring 3 or (and) the outer circumferential surface of the vibrator 1, voids, cracks, and recesses on the turned side of the outer circumferential surface of the pipe l will be filled, and the yoke 2 will be Tightening in the radial direction after press-fitting the fitting portion 2a is convenient because the surface pressure distribution is averaged with respect to the force. Furthermore, if the outer ring 3 and the vibrator L are adhesively bonded in advance (that is, the adhesive is hardened), even if the two are a loose fit, the appearance will be good and the gap will be zero. Therefore, yoke fitting part 2
The press-fitting effect at the time of press-fitting in a is effectively exhibited, which is more convenient. This effect is also convenient for transmitting torque via the outer ring 3. Note that the fit between the outer ring 3 and the vibrator 1 may be an interference fit, and even in this case, it is advantageous to apply an adhesive to increase the bonding strength.

After the press-fitting of the yoke fitting portion 2a into the vibrator l is completed, the overlapping portion of the outer ring 3 and yoke 2 (i.e., the serration 4.6 portion) is subjected to cold plastic processing such as roll processing, press processing, or electromagnetic caulking. As a result, the outer ring 3 and the yoke 2 are coupled together so that they can rotate together. In the case of this embodiment, the serrations 4 of the outer ring 3
Since the serrations 6 of the yoke 2 and the serrations 6 of the yoke 2 are to be engaged with each other, the two are firmly connected. At this time, the groove 5 formed on the outer circumferential surface of the outer ring 3 facilitates plastic deformation of the caulked part (i.e., plastic deformation part) of the outer ring 3, and the stress generated at this time causes the end of the vibrator 1 to Prevent damage to the area around the part.

Furthermore, since the end of the outer ring 3 and the yoke 2 are coupled together so that they can rotate together after the yoke fitting portion 2a is press-fitted, the torque transmission between the yoke 2 and the vibrator l is
This is done not only from the inner circumferential surface of the vibrator 1 but also from the outer circumferential surface via the outer ring 3. In particular, torque transmission from the outer circumferential surface of the vibrator 1 via the outer ring 3 can be achieved with low shear stress due to the difference in radius from the inner circumferential surface. Compared to the torque transmission of
The degree of fatigue damage caused by delamination or the like in manufactured pipes can be significantly suppressed. In addition, it is possible to reduce the pressing force, and since the outer ring 3 exerts a stiffening effect against the force in the bending direction between the vibrator l and the yoke 2, it also contributes to improving bending rigidity. becomes.
