Process Design of a Ball Joint, Considering Caulking and Pull-Out Strength

Abstract: A ball joint for an automobile steering system is a pivot component which is connected to knuckle and lower control arm. The manufacturing process for its caulking comprises spinning and deforming. In this study, the process was simulated by flexible multibody dynamics. The caulking was evaluated qualitatively through numerical analysis and inspecting a plastically deformed shape. The structural responses of a ball joint, namely, pull-out strength and stiffness, are commonly investigated in the development pro… Show more

“…Scanning electron microscopy of the fracture surfaces indicated fatigue as the main failure mechanism. The ball joint manufacturing process has been designed considering caulking and pull-out strength by Sin and Lee [8]. The process was simulated by flexible multibody dynamics, the caulking was evaluated qualitatively through numerical analysis and by inspecting a plastically deformed shape.…”

“…It is made up of a ball or bearing that swivels inside a socket. The socket is tiny enough to keep the ball in place and prevent it from falling out, but large enough to allow the ball to swivel or rotate as needed [1,2]. In many mechanical applications, the ball socket joint combines strength, flexibility, www.videleaf.com and shock absorption to help decrease wear.…”
