METHOD FOR ASSEMBLING A COMPONENT WHICH HAS A SLEEVE, A PISTON WITH A PISTON HEAD, AND A SPRING, AND COMPONENT

摘要

The invention relates to a method for assembling a component which has a sleeve (2), a piston (7) with a piston head (11), and a spring (6). The spring (6) is first inserted into the sleeve (2), and a first piston region (8) of the piston (7) is then inserted into the sleeve. The circumferential edge (4) of the sleeve (2) is then deformed radially inwards until the circumferential edge comes into contact with a second piston region (10) which has a diameter that is reduced compared to the first piston region (8). The invention also relates to a component comprising a sleeve. The aim of the invention is to provide a solution using the method and the component for substantially simplifying the assembly of such a component and reliably preventing damage from occurring during the assembly. This is achieved in that the piston head (11) is provided with a circumferential recess (13) in the region (12) which transitions into the second piston region (10), and the piston (7) is pressed into the sleeve (2) until the circumferential edge (4) of the sleeve (2) has been formed into the recess (13) on the piston head (11).
