Abstract
Provided is an apparatus for manufacturing a hybrid stabilizer link. The apparatus includes a die that injects a resin to mold a socket into which a ball stud is inserted, a shaft whose first end is inserted into the die and which has the socket formed at the inserted first end thereof, and a control unit that fixes a pre-molded socket to the second end of the shaft, adjusts a rotational angle of the shaft based on a lengthwise axis of the shaft, and adjusts a distance from the die. After the socket is injection-molded on the first end of the metal shaft having a predetermined length, when another socket is injection-molded on the second end of the shaft, an angle of the previously molded and a distance from the die are easily adjusted.
Claims4
An apparatus for manufacturing a hybrid stabilizer link, comprising:
- a die that injects a resin to mold a socket into which a ball stud is inserted;
- a shaft whose first end is inserted into the die and which has the socket formed at the inserted first end thereof;
- and
- a control unit that fixes a pre-molded socket to the second end of the shaft, adjusts a rotational angle of the shaft based on a lengthwise axis of the shaft, and adjusts a distance from the die;
- wherein the control unit includes:
- a guide frame that is spaced apart from the die by a predetermined distance in a fixed state;
- a movable body that linearly moves toward or away from the die along the guide frame;
- a rotator that passes through the movable body, and is rotatably coupled to the movable body;
- a jig that is fixed to one face of the rotator which faces the die, and fixes the pre-molded socket to the second end of the shaft;
- and
- a rotating handle that is fixed to the other face of the rotator which is located on the opposite side of the jig, and rotates the rotator and the jig.
