Tripod형 등속조인트의 축력에 미치는 설계변수 영향 분석

Low vibration constant velocity joint has been developed for improvement of riding comfort. “Low vibration” means to reduce GAF(Generated Axial Force) at constant velocity joint. There are many problems for developing constant velocity joint to reduce GAF through tests of physical model. In this paper, dynamic analyses of tripod constant velocity joint using virtual model were performed by changing value of design variables which have possibility of affecting GAF. And GAF effect and interaction of design variables were studied by developed calculation method of GAF performance index. From the result of dynamic analyses suitable value and range of the design variables were suggested to reduce GAF.
