“…Munshi et al [12] studied the influence of feed rate and inclination angle of the riveting head on the maximum hoop stress and the deformation of inner ring. To reduce the computation time and volume change, Moon et al [13] proposed an efficient rigid-plastic FEA method and algorithm, which had been successfully applied to the riveting process of hub bearing. Cho et al [14] explored the riveting process by establishing 2D axisymmetric and 3D finite element models, and the results confirmed that the dynamic explicit method was suitable for the design and optimization of the riveting process.…”

The orbital riveting process has been successively adopted in the assembly of wheel hub bearing, due to its special merits of high efficiency, low cost, and so on. The forming process and deformation behavior of the inner ring have significant influence on the axial clamping force and bearing clearance, however, which haven’t been addressed yet. In this study, a numerical simulation platform for the assembly of the hub bearing is established by the joint use of the static implicit and dynamic explicit algorithms. Based on the platform, the deformation process and deformation behavior of the inner ring are investigated, along with the interference assembly and riveting assembly on the loading process of the inner ring. Finally, relevant experimental verifications are carried out to consolidate the simulation results. The research findings could be used to guide the design and optimization of the axial clamping force and bearing clearance.

“…Kajihara 17 predicted the residual stress distribution and the springback phenomenon after the shaft-clinching assembly of the wheel-hub-bearing unit. Moon et al 18 presented an approximate but efficient FE scheme for reducing both the computational time and the volume change during the simulations and applied this scheme to simulate the shaft-clinching process for the wheel-bearing assembly. From the assumption that plastic deformation is concentrated in a relatively small contact area in the shaft-clinching process of the wheel-hub-bearing unit, Nam et al 19 proposed a computationally efficient FE analysis model, which is composed of one or two artificial planes of symmetry and the part of the material defined by them, and the study showed that the predictions at the midplanes were in good agreement with the experiments for all cases while those at the planes of symmetry were more or less different from the actual phenomena.…”

A shaft-clinching process aimed at developing a lightweight, integrated and highly reliable assembly is a very effective technique for the assembly of hub-bearing units. In this study, a reliable elastic–plastic finite element model of the shaft-clinching assembly process was developed by using the Abaqus platform and was applied to simulate the shaft-clinching assembly process of automobile wheel-hub-bearing units. To ensure the precision of the developed finite element model, the motion equations of the rivet head during the shaft-clinching process were obtained on the basis of theoretical derivation, on-site testing and the structural parameters of the equipment. Further, a series of experiments was performed for identifying the mechanical properties of the investigated material and the realistic friction conditions existing at the rivet head–workpiece interface. Based on the obtained reliable preprocessing data, the developed finite element model was used to simulate the shaft-clinching assembly process. Subsequently, the finite element model was validated using experiments on the shaft clinching of a wheel-hub-bearing unit. Comparison between the simulation results and the experimental results in terms of the axial clinching force–time curve and the ultimate deformed shape of the hub shaft showed good agreement, thereby validating the developed model. Finally, the influences of the axial distance between the upper surface of the inner ring and the forming surface of the rivet head, the friction factor, the radius ratio of the internal gear to the external gear and the maximum inclination angle of the rivet head on the clinching process were studied. The results of this study are expected to aid optimization of the shaft-clinching assembly process.

Abstract.A new cold rotary forging technology of the internal helical involute spline was presented based on an analysis of the structure of automotive starter guide cylinder. 3D rigid-plastic finite element model was employed. Billet deformation, Billet equivalent stress and forming load were investigated under the DEFORM 3D software environment, then the forming process parameters were applied in the forming trials, and the simulation results are conformed with the experimental results. The validity of 3D finite element simulation model has been verified. The research results show that the proposed cold rotary forging technology can be efficient in handling of the forming manufacturing problems of automobile starter guide cylinder with internal helical involute spline.
