ABSTRACT:
A method and an apparaus for fracturing cap and shaft of connecting rods manufactured by powder forging in which the cap or the shaft of the connecting rod is fixed on a support movable perpendicularly to the plane of fracture, the portion of the connecting rod not fixed on the support is held stationary, and a straight central impact acting along the axis of symmetry of the connecting rod is applied to the support in the direction of fracture. The apparatus includes: a stationary base, a support for the cap of the connecting rod, a support for the shaft of the connecting rod, a guide fixed to the base for each support, on which the respective support is mounted for movement in each case perpendicularly to the plane of fracture and parallel to the axis of symmetry of the connecting rod within limits, and an impact mass for a support, wherein the impact mass applies to the corresponding support in the direction of fracture of the connecting rod a straight central impact operative along the axis of symmetry thereof.
