What are the reasons for the fracture and detachment of an automobile driveshaft?
1 Answers
The reasons for the fracture and detachment of a driveshaft are as follows: 1. The dynamic balance of the driveshaft assembly exceeds standard specifications: driveshaft deformation, detachment of balance patches, asymmetry of bearing cover balance shims, etc. 2. Loose or damaged driveshaft connecting bolts: improper assembly of the driveshaft, failure to tighten the four flange bolts according to the specified torque, or a screw thread stripping, lack of grease or improper lubrication of the cross bearing, etc. 3. Improper maintenance: failure to strictly follow the repair process and operating procedures during maintenance, resulting in deformation of driveshaft components due to random hammering. 4. Improper driving operation: subjecting the driveshaft to extreme impacts, leading to component damage. 5. Bracket deformation: altering the vertical position between the driveshaft and the rear axle axis, twisting off the installation bolts of the rear flange, causing the driveshaft to detach.
