Motor vehicle rotary electric machine drive assembly
The present invention relates to a motor vehicle rotary electric machine ( 100 ) drive assembly, the drive assembly comprising a rotor shaft ( 2 ) extending along a longitudinal axis (X) and a connecting piece ( 4 ) providing connection between the shaft and the torque transmission system comprising a bore ( 41 ) for the passage of the rotor shaft, the drive assembly being characterized in that the bore comprises a first wall ( 41 a ) extending axially and a cylindrical second wall ( 41 b ) extending axially in alignment with the first wall, and in that the rotor shaft comprises: —a first surface ( 21 ) extending axially and cooperating with the first wall of the bore to centre the connecting piece around the rotor shaft; and—a second cylindrical surface ( 22 ) extending axially and provided with knurling, with a diameter (A) greater than the diameter (A′) of the second wall of the bore, the connecting piece being force-fitted onto the rotor shaft by means of the knurling.
1. A motor vehicle rotary electric machine drive assembly, the drive assembly comprising:
a rotor shaft extending along a longitudinal axis; and
a connecting piece providing connection between the rotor shaft and a torque transmission system comprising a bore for passage of the rotor shaft,
wherein the bore comprises a first wall extending axially and a cylindrical second wall extending axially in alignment with the first wall, and
wherein the rotor shaft comprises:
a first surface extending axially and cooperating with the first wall of the bore to center the connecting piece around the rotor shaft,
a second cylindrical surface extending axially and provided with a knurling having a diameter greater than the diameter of the second wall of the bore, the connecting piece being force-fitted onto the rotor shaft by means of the knurling,
wherein the first surface of the rotor shaft and the first wall of the bore are cylindrical surfaces having a same diameter,
wherein the connecting piece is mounted on a level of a first end of the rotor shaft, and the diameter of the first surface of the rotor shaft is greater than the diameter of the knurling, the knurling being arranged between the first surface and the first end of the rotor shaft.
2. The assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the first surface of the rotor shaft and the first wall of the bore each present a surface quality comprising irregularities having dimensions less than a characteristic dimension.
3. The assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the diameter of the first surface of the rotor shaft ranges between 1 and 2 times the diameter of the knurling.
4. The assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the first surface extends over a length ranging between 1 and 3 times the length of the knurling.
5. The assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the knurling extends over a length ranging between 0.1 and 1 times the diameter of the rotor shaft.
6. A rotary electric machine, comprising: a drive assembly according to claim 1 .
