Definitions

  • the invention relates to a coupling element of a clutch unit for manual transmissions for the rotationally fixed connection of a transmission shaft to a gearwheel rotatable relative to the transmission shaft, the coupling element having a toothing and the coupling element being formed at least in two parts from a first element and a second element, and at least the first Element is manufactured by a non-cutting shaping process and is connected to the second element.
  • Coupling elements of this type can be found in coupling units of manually shiftable transmissions.
  • the coupling units are used both in unsynchronized circuits and in synchronized circuits.
  • Claw clutches are used as clutch units in the unsynchronized circuits.
  • the clutch units in synchronized gears are designed as synchronous clutches, also called synchronizers. Both in the unsynchronized gearboxes and in the synchronized gearboxes, such a clutch unit can be used to positively couple a gear shaft with a gear wheel of a gear pair that is constantly meshing with one another.
  • the coupling unit is usually made up of three coupling elements.
  • a first coupling element sits on the transmission shaft in a rotationally fixed manner and is in engagement with a second coupling element via a toothing.
  • the second coupling element is arranged so as to be longitudinally displaceable relative to the first coupling element and is provided with a coupling toothing which is provided for engaging in a third coupling element.
  • the best-known examples of such coupling elements are the synchronizer body, the sliding sleeve and the coupling teeth of a gear wheel of a synchronizing device.
  • the coupling elements are made according to the prior art from a blank by machining or are non-cutting, z. B. manufactured by reshaping.
  • the toothing is formed from teeth which have a wide variety of design forms and which can generally only be designed with great effort.
  • z. B. the contours of recesses on the tooth flanks or locking grooves in the machining direction so-called undercuts.
  • These undercut contours or undercuts are not to be introduced in the preferred machining and demolding direction or stand in the way of machining. Such contours can usually only be introduced by additional and complex operations. Undercuts should therefore be largely avoided when designing machined coupling elements. In the interest of an optimal mode of operation of the coupling element in the synchronizing unit, however, such undercuts cannot generally be completely dispensed with. Additional and complex work steps cause additional and correspondingly high costs in the manufacture of coupling elements.
  • the manufacturing costs of the coupling element can be reduced by machining without cutting in comparison to machining.
  • the locking grooves and recesses mentioned, for example, are likewise not to be incorporated in one-piece coupling elements in a non-cutting production, since these generally have undercuts in the demolding direction, e.g. B. a drawing die. For this reason, coupling elements made from individually manufactured components are put together.
  • the joining plane runs through the parting plane of the undercuts of the finished part, so that no undercut is formed on the component.
  • a coupling element of the generic type designed as a sliding sleeve is known for example from DE 39 08 989 C2.
  • This sliding sleeve is formed from two symmetrical or approximately symmetrical, annular and one-piece components. On a half sleeve body, each half of the symmetry has half of a toothing formed on the inner circumference and part of the shift fork guide.
  • the components are free of undercuts and are manufactured using a uniform, casting or sintering process. Following their individual production, the components are connected to one another at the end by joining and form the sliding sleeve.
  • a disadvantage of coupling elements designed in this way is that a plurality of undercuts arranged one behind the other in the demolding direction, if at all, can only be achieved by dividing the coupling element into a corresponding number of separately manufactured components arranged one behind the other. The components as individual parts are then no longer symmetrical to one another. The accuracy of the individual elements, in particular the toothing, suffers from such joints.
  • the production of a coupling element designed in this way requires a large number of tools, is complicated and therefore expensive.
  • Coupling elements according to the prior art are with their individual functional elements such. B. the sleeve body, the shift fork guide and the teeth of a sliding sleeve, made of one material.
  • the requirements for such functional elements such as. B. the strength, hardness and processing status of the surface, but are different from functional element to functional element.
  • the choice of material is therefore usually made as a compromise between the requirements imposed by the most stressed functional element and the machinability of the material.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to provide a coupling element which allows any number and arrangement of undercut contours on the toothing in its design, allows a selection of materials adapted to the different requirements of the individual elements of the coupling element and which is inexpensive in particular in mass production can be made.
  • an element of the coupling element formed from at least two elements is formed by the toothing and that the toothing is formed from teeth produced in a non-cutting shaping process.
  • the teeth are connected to one another at least in sections on the circumference in succession by at least one connecting element.
  • the toothing is therefore manufactured separately and, depending on the design, is fastened to the one or more elements of the coupling element of the coupling unit in the form of sections, that is to say segments, or as an integral, at least annular element.
  • the separate design of the toothing makes their manufacture easier.
  • the teeth of the toothing can be individually shaped and therefore easily provided with complex contours.
  • the choice of materials, the processing status and the hardness status are exclusively adapted to the stresses on the gearing and their manufacturability.
  • the tools for producing such gearing can be designed simply and inexpensively.
  • the modification of the toothing on otherwise identical coupling elements is possible through the use of e.g. B. easy to implement different gear sections.
  • the weight of such components and the material costs for their manufacture are low, since the essential portion of the material used for their manufacture is also used for their actual shaping and design. There is little waste.
  • Coupling elements according to the invention are inexpensive to manufacture, particularly in mass production.
  • the teeth are accessible from practically all directions for the introduction of complicated undercut contours and for fine finishing.
  • the connecting elements are preferably formed from sheet metal by a forming process such as pressing, rolling, stamping and embossing.
  • a common, ie one-piece design of teeth and their connecting elements and a production of the teeth and their connecting elements as individual parts. If teeth and connecting elements of the toothing are formed in one piece with one another, a toothing formed from a sheet metal strip is provided in a preferred embodiment.
  • the teeth as individual parts are designed from a wire or sheet metal profile by embossing or pressing or by z. B. shaped a sintering process.
  • Teeth of this type are then to be connected to their connecting elements with an inseparable connection, preferably a weld.
  • an inseparable connection preferably a weld.
  • one or more webs or one or more circumferential rims are provided.
  • the webs or rims are either formed in one piece on the teeth or manufactured as individual parts.
  • the webs are preferably used for the formation of tooth segments.
  • the machining of the teeth from all directions is simplified if, as the further embodiment of the invention provides, the rims or webs are arranged at both ends of the adjacent teeth in the axial direction and the webs or ridges are connected to the teeth via a web-shaped connection are.
  • the webs and ridges block the machining of the teeth only slightly, particularly in the case of toothings formed in one piece.
  • such a configuration of the teeth with their connecting elements is advantageous because they are e.g. B. from an endless material by punching and forming. Teeth and ridges or ridges are worked out together from the continuous material, the ridges or ridges serve as production aids and hold the teeth in position until they are finished, including their fine machining.
  • a special embodiment of the invention provides for the toothing to be designed with one or more ribs from a sheet metal strip cut to length.
  • the sheet metal strip is formed by punching and reshaping it with its teeth and rims in an elongated form.
  • the length of the sheet metal strip corresponds to the circumferential length of the finished toothing.
  • the coupling elements are designed as a sliding sleeve or synchronizer body.
  • a special design of a sliding sleeve is formed by a shift fork guide to which the teeth are attached as a single part. Such a sliding sleeve is light in weight.

  • a synchronizer body can be designed similarly.
  • the toothing is fastened to the outer diameter of a wall of a synchronizer body provided with at least one shaft seat or a hub.
