Method for forming an end-side toothing arrangement

Abstract

A method for forming an end-side toothing arrangement of a rolling bearing, in particular a wheel bearing. In a first method step, before the reshaping of an end piece of a hub, a die is axially arranged on the rolling hearing in a preassembled state and, in a second method step during the reshaping of the end piece and the shaping of the end-side toothing arrangement, the die radially delimits a radial recess of the rolling rivet collar as it forms. In addition, the die reduces or prevents radial widening of the inner ring.

1 . A method for forming an end-side toothing arrangement from a rolling rivet collar of a rolling bearing, the method comprising:
 in a first step, before reshaping of an end piece of a hub, a die is axially arranged on the rolling bearing in a preassembled state; and   in a second step, during the reshaping of the end piece and the simultaneous shaping of the end-side toothing arrangement, the die radially delimits a radial expansion of the rolling rivet collar as it forms.   
     
     
         2 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the die shapes an axial and/or radial outer face of the rolling rivet collar. 
     
     
         3 . The method of  claim 2 , wherein an inner extension of the die shapes and delimits the radial outer face of the rolling rivet collar. 
     
     
         4 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein a clamping ring radially supports from outside inwards an inner ring of the rolling hearing during the second step. 
     
     
         5 . The method of  claim 4 , wherein the clamping ring is fastened to the die or is integrally connected thereto. 
     
     
         6 . A rolling bearing, comprising:
 a rolling rivet collar having a molded-on end-side toothing arrangement,   wherein the rolling rivet collar has been radially delimited and/or shaped on a radial outer face during the formation of the rolling rivet collar.   
     
     
         7 . The rolling bearing of  claim 6 , wherein the outer face of the rolling rivet collar is shaped annularly, conically or in a similar manner. 
     
     
         8 . The rolling bearing of  claim 6 , wherein the outer face of the rolling rivet collar has a circumferentially continuing embossment. 
     
     
         9 . The rolling bearing of  claim 8 , wherein the circumferentially continuing embossment is an encoder. 
     
     
         10 . The rolling bearing of  claim 6 , wherein the outer face is provided, at least in part, as a seat for an encoder ring or a sealing element. 
     
     
         11 . The rolling bearing of  claim 8 , wherein the circumferentially continuing embossment repeats.
