One-Piece Connecting Rod and Production Method Thereof

Abstract

The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a connecting rod (1) by filament winding, said method comprising in particular:—creating an internal body (5) by manufacturing a first component (6) by winding pre-impregnated fibres (17) around a mandrel (8) and removing the mandrel;—assembling the first component with a second component (7, 22);—creating an external body (14) by winding pre-impregnated fibres (17), identical to those used in the manufacture of the first component (6), around said internal body (5);—creating a one-piece body (18) by polymerizing the assembly formed of the internal body and of the external body; and—machining a fastening (19) at one end of the one-piece body.
