Vehicle-use resin module and method of manufacturing vehicle-use resin module
A vehicle-use resin module including a strength member made of synthetic resin and including a mounting hole, and an attachment member attached to the mounting hole and configured to be subjected to an external force. The attachment member includes an outer fitting having a tubular part arranged in the mounting hole in an inserted state. The outer fitting includes an outer circumferential projection projecting to a radially outer side of the tubular part. The strength member is an insertion-molded component having a structure in which the outer circumferential projection of the outer fitting is embedded so as to be inserted inside a circumferential wall of the mounting hole. A surface of the tubular part of the outer fitting and a surface of the outer circumferential projection are each directly fixed to the strength member with an adhesive.
SUSPENSION ELEMENT SYSTEMS AND METHODS
A damper assembly includes a tubular member including a sidewall and a shoulder. The damper assembly includes a rod and a piston coupled to the rod. A secondary piston has a second contact surface, an opposing second surface, an inner cylindrical face defining a central aperture that receives the rod, and an outer cylindrical face. The opposing second surface includes one or more surface grooves, extending between the inner cylindrical face and the outer cylindrical face along the opposing second surface, and one or more bypass orifices disposed about the body member. The bypass orifices extend along the inner cylindrical face between the second contact surface and the opposing second surface. The secondary piston defines a channel extending between the inner cylindrical face and an outer periphery of the body member. The channel and bypass orifices form a fluid flow path when the piston contacts the secondary piston.
Composite casting system and composite casting method for manufacturing heterogeneous material casting product, and heterogeneous material casting product manufactured by composite casting method
A composite casting system for manufacturing a heterogeneous material casting product may include a fixed mold; a movable mold for opening or closing one side of the fixed mold; a slide core pin provided inside the fixed mold or the movable mold, and capable of being protruded to a cavity side, which is formed by a combination of the fixed mold and the movable mold, from the inside of the fixed mold or the movable mold; a high-pressure casting device for injecting high-pressure casting molten metal into the cavity; and a gravity casting device for injecting gravity casting molten metal through a gravity casting hole formed on the fixed mold or the movable mold.
LIGHTWEIGHT SUSPENSION UPRIGHT OR KNUCKLE
A lightweight suspension upright or knuckle for a vehicle including a bearing connection interface arranged coaxial with the rolling bearing and including a first sleeve element and a second sleeve element arranged radially outside the first sleeve element and including a BMC/LFT/DLFT annular body that is sandwiched between a first and second shell elements, which are coupled together in a radially superimposed manner and which are preferably obtained in a semi-cured state as self-supporting elements, to be chemically and mechanically bonded together and with the BMC/LFT/DLFT annular body in a later stage during a step of forming a core (11) to fill either completely or partially an empty space (12) delimited between the first and second shell elements (8,9).
CHASSIS COMPONENT, METHOD FOR PRODUCING A CHASSIS COMPONENT, AND WHEEL SUSPENSION FOR A MOTOR VEHICLE
A chassis component (1) for a wheel suspension having at least two pivot points (3, 4), at least one connecting structure (7) which interconnects the pivot points (3, 4) with one another, and at least one sensor (9). The at least one sensor (9) is embodied as a piezoresistive thin film (19) arranged on a section of a surface (8) of the connecting structure (7). A thin film interconnects contact points (15, 16), of at least two conductive sections (13, 14) which are integrated in the connecting structure (7), to one another.
VEHICLE KNUCKLE AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREOF
According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, a vehicle knuckle used in a steering device of a vehicle is provided. The vehicle knuckle according to one embodiment of the present disclosure may comprise a knuckle body constituting a basic body of the vehicle knuckle; and one or more flanges formed on one side of the knuckle body and configured to be used to connect the knuckle to other components of the vehicle. According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, all or a portion of the knuckle body may comprise a closed-box-section structure in which a hollow space portion is defined, and the closed-box-section structure may be configured such that the knuckle body integrally encloses around the hollow space portion.
Spring plate
A spring plate for supporting a vehicle suspension spring, with a surface facing toward the vehicle suspension spring and with at least one support point, wherein the spring plate has a region which extends from the surface in the direction of the vehicle suspension spring and forms the support point, and wherein a sheet-metal element acting as a corrosion protection element is fastened to the extended region and is in contact with the vehicle suspension spring in all operating states.
Arm component and manufacturing method therefor
At least one underfill part is formed so that a central axis of the arm component coincides with a load line of the arm component. The central axis of the configuration is a line connecting centroids of cross-sectional shapes with one another in an axial direction of the arm component, the cross-sectional shapes being shapes on cross-sectional planes perpendicular to an axis of the arm component. The load line of the arm component is a line on which a load is imposed in the arm component.
System for wheel suspension of a vehicle
A wheel suspension of a vehicle intended to extend in a transversal direction of the vehicle in association with first and second wheels arranged on opposite sides of the vehicle, comprising: a subframe unit provided with a set of attachment points for attachment of the subframe unit to a vehicle body structure, wherein the subframe unit comprises a cross member extending along the subframe unit in a transversal direction of the vehicle when the subframe unit is attached to the vehicle; at least a first link member arranged on each side of the subframe unit, wherein each first link member is arranged to connect a corresponding wheel or wheel supporting element with the subframe unit via a pivoted connection; and a spring arrangement arranged to act onto each of the first link members so as to provide for a spring suspension of the first and second wheels.
