Joint for connecting two elements used in crankshafts

摘要

The joint has a housing (2) and a bearing bolt (28), between which is located a bushing (18). The housing is a deep-drawn section and is deformed by forging of the axial distal surface (42) with its periphery play-free against the housing wall. The bushing is deformed to be play-free against the bearing bolt. One of th outlet openings (6) is provided with a peripheral thrust washer (20) for axial location of the bearing bolts. A round blank (52) is provided for axially locating the distal end of the bearing bolt. The blank is supported on a step (54) of the housing, bleeding over from the free end of the housing.
