Method of manufacturing a composite control arm shaft for motor vehicles and composite control arm shaft

摘要

A method of manufacturing a composite front suspension control arm shaft for motor vehicles includes connecting two tubular longitudinal control arms to a transverse sectional member, wherein a connection portion adapted to the cross-sectional configuration of the ends of the transverse sectional member is produced at each longitudinal control arm, and wherein the ends of the transverse sectional member are positioned in an assembly position relative to the connection portions and are secured by welding thereto. The composite front suspension control arm shaft includes two tubular longitudinal control arms connected to a transverse sectional member, wherein the first length portion of each longitudinal control arm adjacent the wheel carrier is of rectangular configuration, wherein the width of the rectangular length portion is greater than the height of the length portion and a second length portion of each longitudinal control arm to be coupled to the support frame is of rectangular configuration, wherein the height of the second rectangular length portion is greater than its width, and wherein each longitudinal control arm has a connection portion adapted to the cross-sectional configuration of the ends of the transverse sectional member.
