Abstract
In a CV joint-bearing mounting structure, a steering unit, including a CV joint and a bearing, is engaged with a knuckle via tapered portions, a first nut is mounted to the outer end of the bearing, a disk is engaged with an engagement part of the CV joint via toothed portions, and a second nut is mounted to one end of the CV joint. The quality of the bearing is improved, the tolerance of the assembled components is reduced, and the types and number of the components are reduced, thereby improving the efficiency of assembly of the components.
Claims5
A constant velocity joint-bearing mounting structure, comprising:
- a steering unit, which includes a constant velocity joint and a bearing having a tapered structure;
- a knuckle, having a tapered recess in an inner circumference thereof, the tapered recess engaging with an outer circumference of the bearing;
- a first nut screwed to an outer end of the bearing, thereby fixing the bearing;
- a disk having a toothed structure in an inner portion thereof, the toothed structure threadedly engaged with an engagement part of the constant velocity joint;
- and
- a second nut screwed to one end of the constant velocity joint, so that the disk is fixed to the constant velocity joint.
