Abstract

Abstract To provide a vehicle stabilizer for high stress in which fatigue life of a bending portion can be prolonged and which can exhibit excellent durability. A configuration of a bending portion 16 , to which a maximum stress is applied and which is the most fragile part, of a vehicle stabilizer for high stress 10 is formed in a state which satisfies conditions: 0<φ≦4 and (φ×d/R)≦2 wherein d represents a material diameter before bending process, R represents a radius of bending of the bending portion 16 , d 1 represents a short axis dimension of a cross section of the bending portion 16 , d 2 represents a long axis dimension of a cross section of the bending portion 16 , and a flat rate φ of a cross section of the bending portion 16 is represented by the following equation: φ=(d 2 −d 1 )/d 2 ×100. Accordingly, concentration of shearing stress on the bending portion 16 during a load input can be suppressed to prevent the vehicle stabilizer for high stress 10 from being broken due to the concentration of stress on the bending portion 16 .

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim 118 words
A vehicle stabilizer for high stress that is formed by conducting a hot-bending process on a solid round steel bar material, wherein a bending portion is formed in a state which satisfies conditions: 0<φ≦4 and (φ× d/R )≦2, in which d represents a material diameter of the solid round steel bar material, R represents a radius of bending of the bending portion, d 1 represents a short axis dimension of a cross section of the bending portion, d 2 represents a long axis dimension of the cross section of the bending portion, and a flat rate φ of the cross section of the bending portion is represented by the following equation: φ=( d 2− d 1)/ d 2×100.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 118 words
