The invention is directed to outside diameter piloting apparatus and method for concentrically aligning a disc rotor to a wheel hub. The pitch circle diameter of the annular piloting features is greater than the pitch circle diameter of the rotor mounting fasteners and the wheel studs of the hub. The outside diameter piloting feature allows a hub section profile which is smooth and continuous between the inboard side of the wheel hub up to the mounting fastener apertures. This smooth and continuous profile reduces stresses and increases the fatigue life of the wheel hub.
L'invention concerne un appareil de pilotage à diamètre extérieur et méthode d'aligner un rotor- disque de manière concentrique sur un moyeu de roue. Le diamètre de perçage des caractéristiques de pilotage annulaires est plus élevé que celui des dispositifs de fixation de montage du rotor et des goujons de fixation de la roue du moyeu. La caractéristique de pilotage à diamètre extérieur permet un profilé de section de moyeu qui est lisse et continu entre la paroi intérieure du moyeu de roue jusqu'aux ouvertures des dispositifs de fixation de montage. Ce profilé lisse et continu diminue les contraintes et augmente la durée de vie en fatigue du moyeu de roue.
