8、. DEFINITIONS Basic Driveline Terms: 3.1 Driveline An assembly of one or more driveshafts with provisions for axial movement, which transmits torque and/or rotary motion at a fixed or varying angular relationship from one shaft to another. 3.2 Driveshaft An assembly of one or two universal joints co
9、nnected to a solid or tubular shaft member (see Figure 1). SAE J901 Revised JAN2007 - 2 - 3.3 Halfshaft A driveshaft, normally one of two, that connects the chassis mounted final drive unit to the independently sprung driven wheel of a vehicle (see Figures 2 and 3). 3.3.1 Linkshaft An intermediate s
10、olid or tubular shaft that connects the final drive unit to a halfshaft inboard joint. It is supported by a bearing and bracket attached to the powertrain. It allows the use of equal length (and possible common) halfshafts and aids in equalizing inboard joint angles (see Figure 3.5). 3.4 Driveshaft
11、Length, Center-to-Center The distance between the outermost universal joint centers on a driveshaft. On driveshafts with fixed centers, it is the nominal dimension, while on driveshafts with variable length centers, it is the compressed and extended lengths (see Figure 1). 3.5 Slip The permissible l
12、ength of axial travel. 3.6 Stroke or Plunge Distance The relative axial displacement of an end motion or stroking universal joints driving and driven members. 3.7 Phase Angle The relative rotational position of the universal joint yokes on a driveshaft or driveline (see Figure 1). 3.8 Critical Speed
13、 The speed at which the rotational speed coincides with the transverse natural vibration frequency of the driveshaft. 3.9 Balancing A procedure by which the mass distribution of a rotating body is measured and, if necessary, altered in order to ensure that it is within specified limits. 3.10 Mass Da
14、mper A concentrated mass generally clamped on a halfshaft midway between the universal joints. It is used to reduce the natural bending frequency of the halfshaft below a disturbing frequency (see Figure 4).

16、ASS DAMPER SAE J901 Revised JAN2007 - 6 - 3.11 Torsional Damper or Vibration Absorber A torsionally tuned mechanical device which generally consists of an inertia ring attached to a drivetrain component by means of an elastomeric inner ring. It is tuned to a specific disturbing frequency (see Figure
17、s 5 and 6). 3.12 Isolation Damper A mechanical torque transmitting device incorporated in a halfshaft which functions as a disturbance isolator. It eliminates, by means of an elastomeric inner ring or rings, undesirable throttle or shift induced noises or disturbances resulting from transaxle gear l
18、ash. This device is normally installed only on one halfshaft in a vehicle (see Figures 7 and 8).

BASIC UNIVERSAL JOINT TERMS 4.1 Universal Joint A mechanical device which can transmit torque and/or rotational motion from one shaft to another at fixed or varying angles of intersection of the shaft axes. 4.2 Nonconstant Velocity
20、 Universal Joint A universal joint which transmits rotational motion with a variation in angular velocity between the output and input members when operating at joint angles greater than zero. The average angular velocity ratio is unity (for example: the Cardan or Hooke joint). 4.3 Constant Velocity
21、 or CV Universal Joint A universal joint which transmits rotational motion with an angular velocity ratio of unity between output and input members (for example: the Rzeppa joint). 4.4 Near Constant Velocity Universal Joint A universal joint which transmits rotational motion with an angular velocity
22、 ratio of unity when operating at the design joint angle and at zero. When operating at other angles, the angular velocity ratio is near unity (for example: the double Cardan joint). 4.5 Self-Supporting Universal Joint A universal joint supported by internal means (for example: the Rzeppa joint). 4.
23、6 Nonself-Supporting Universal Joint A universal joint which requires an external means of support (for example: the formerly used Tracta joint). 4.7 Fixed Center Universal Joint A universal joint which maintains the joint center at a fixed location and can resist axial thrust forces (for example: t
24、he Cardan or Hooke joint). 4.8 End Motion or Stroking Universal Joint A universal joint which permits relative axial movement between input and output members resulting in a variable joint center location (for example: the tripot joint). 4.9 Outboard Joint A universal joint located at the wheel end
25、of a halfshaft (see Figure 2). 4.10 Inboard Joint A universal joint located at the differential or final drive end of a halfshaft (see Figure 2). 4.11 Joint Angle The acute angle described by the intersection of the rotational axes of the input and output members of a universal joint and measured in
26、 the plane described by these axes (see Figure 1). SAE J901 Revised JAN2007 - 9 - 4.12 Swing Diameter The maximum diameter of the circular path described by a rotating universal joint (see Figure 1). 4.13 Constant Velocity, Bisecting Angle or Homokinetic Plane The plane described by all contact poin
27、ts of a universal joint which produces an angular velocity ratio of unity between the output and input members. This plane bisects the obtuse angle formed by the input and output member rotational axes and is perpendicular to the plane containing these axes. 4.14 Torsional Equivalent Angle The joint
28、 angle of a single nonconstant velocity universal joint which produces the same speed variation as a driveline with two or more nonconstant velocity universal joints. 4.15 Inertia Equivalent Angle The joint angle of a single nonconstant velocity universal joint which describes the inertia effects of
29、 a driveline. 4.16 Inertia Drive Equivalent Angle The joint angle of the first nonconstant velocity universal joint in a two-joint system. In a three-or-more-joint system, it is the joint angle of a single nonconstant velocity universal joint which produces the same maximum acceleration as the maxim
30、um of the sum of the accelerations of all but the last nonconstant velocity universal joint in the driveline. 4.17 Inertia Coast Equivalent Angle The joint angle of the last nonconstant velocity universal joint in a two-joint system. In a three-or-more-joint system, it is the joint angle of a single
31、 nonconstant velocity universal joint which produces the same maximum acceleration as the maximum of the sum of the accelerations of all but the first nonconstant velocity universal joint in the driveline. 4.18 Secondary Couple A bending moment on the driving and driven members of a universal joint
32、produced by an angular change in the direction of torque. It is a function of torque and joint angle. In a nonconstant velocity universal joint, the bending moment on the driving member oscillates from zero to maximum, while simultaneously on the driven member the moment varies from maximum to zero,
33、 twice per revolution. In a constant velocity universal joint, the bending moment on both driving and driven members is constant for all positions of joint rotation. 4.19 Bearing Factor A size characteristic for comparing the various size Cardan and double Cardan type universal joints relative to be
34、aring capacity. It is the product of the projected needle roller bearing area on the cross trunnion times the torque radius (see Figure 9).
