Connecting assembly for a vehicle

摘要

A connecting assembly for a vehicle, with a structural component (11) having a connection area (14), a joint (7) having a bearing element (4) and an inner joint component (3) fitted and able to move in the latter and which extends outward the assembly, in an axial direction (5). The bearing element (4) together with the connection area (14) form an insert, and a cast element (9) is produced by casting around and enclosing the insert. The structural component (11) and the inner joint component (3) extend out of the cast element (9). The insert has a closing component (12) that engages with a mutual interlock with the structural component (11) to form, together with the structural component (11), a joint holder (8) that secures the bearing element (4) with an interlock, in the axial direction (5).

1. A connecting assembly for a vehicle, the connecting assembly comprising:
a structural component (11) having an interior surface and comprising a connection area (14), and the connection area of the structural component defines a receiving opening (15), a joint (7) comprising a bearing element (4) and an inner joint component (3) that is received and movable within the bearing element and which extends in an axial direction (5) outward through a socket opening (6) in the bearing element, a closing component (12) having an interior surface that mates with an exterior surface of the bearing element (4) on an axial side of the bearing element (4) adjacent the socket opening (6), the bearing element (4) and the inner joint component (3) are received within the connection area (14) such that the interior surface of the structural component (11) mates with the exterior surface of the bearing element (4) on an axial side of the bearing element (4) opposite the socket opening (6), and such that the closing component (12) engages the structural component (11) on the axial side of the bearing element (4) opposite the socket opening (6) to interlock the closing component (12) and the structural component (11), the bearing element (4) and the inner joint component (3) being secured in the axial direction between the interior surfaces of the structural component (11) and the bearing element (4), the bearing element (4), together with the connection area (14), form an insert which comprises the closing component (12), and the structural component (11) being interlocked with the closing component (12) to form a joint holder (8), and the insert is encased within a cast element (9) that is cast around the insert such that the structural component (11) extends radially outward through the cast element and the inner joint component (3) extends axially out of the cast element.
