TIE-ROD END ASSEMBLY AND GEAR SHAFTS

Transcription

1 TIE-ROD END ASSEMBLY AND GEAR SHAFTS A. INTRODUCTION Tie-rod end assemblies and gear shafts are two important components in a vehicle. Steering system in a vehicle is required to turn left or right.tie-rod forms main component in steering system. Gear shafts are required to keep the vehicle in motion at various speeds and loads. B. PRODUCT USES AND SPECIFICATIONS To guide the vehicle along the road and turn left and right as desired an effective steering system is required. The system includes the steering wheel, the steering gear and steering linkages. The steering linkages include Tie-rods, Ball sockets, Tie-rod ends, steering ohms etc. Tie-rod is the one with one end threaded and the other end fitted with ball sockets the former end connected to the wheel. This enables the vehicle to maintain the turning uniform to prevent sideslip and excessive wear. Gear shaft is the shaft in which the gears of various diameters are assembled to enable to shift gear to keep the vehicle in motion at various speeds and loads. The tie-rod end assembly consists of a rack, rack spring, inner thrust bearing, retaining pin ball socket, tie rod, locknut and tie rod end C. MARKET POTENTIAL The products are purchased by original engine and automobile manufacturers as ancillary components. There is also a large demand from replacement markets. The demand of automobile and other engines are increasing every day. There is a large demand for these products in foreign countries also. With the setting up major automobile projects namely Ford Motors, Hyundai Motors, Hindustan Motors, Mitsuibishi and with expansion plans of Ashok Leyland & TAFE, 1

TamilNadu has always been a forerunner in the industrial process, both in terms of industrial output and also terms of encouraging various new large-scale projects. Having recorded an impressive is growth industry in the post-reform span, it is poised for further industrial development and expansion. At present the state accounts for over 11-12% of India s industrial output. Automobile ancillaries have O.E. Market and Replacement market for all automobile components.
