ROTATING SHAFT STRUCTURE COMPRISING PLURALITY OF SPEED REDUCERS, AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREFOR
This rotating shaft structure comprises a first link, a second link connected to the first link, and a plurality of speed reducers positioned between the first link and the second link. At least one of a speed-reducer-side attachment hole and a first-link-side attachment hole, which are for joining the speed reducers to the first link, is larger or longer than the other.
STEERING GEAR ASSEMBLY AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING SAME
A steering gear housing and method of manufacturing same are provided. The steering gear housing is comprised of aluminum alloy and is at least partially anodized. The steering gear housing defines a plurality of mounting apertures. A plurality of nuts is fit into a respective one of the mounting apertures for use in mounting to a vehicle. Each of the nuts defines a plurality of splines for establishing a press-fit relationship between the mounting apertures and the nuts. The method involves casting a steering gear housing defining a plurality of mounting apertures out of aluminum alloy. Next, the casted steering gear housing is at least partially anodized. After anodization, a plurality of nuts is fit into respective ones of the mounting apertures. The nuts define splines for allowing a press-fit relationship to be established between the mounting apertures and the nuts.
