ABSTRACT:
A constant velocity joint having first and second rotatable bodies, at least one of the bodies being angularly and axially displaceable with respect to the other. An elongated member for transmitting torque between the bodies extends in its longitudinal direction transversely in a slot in one of the bodies and is connected to the other body. The member is slidable along and pivotable about its transverse axis in the direction of the slot length so as to provide free axial and angular movement of the bodies during their rotative movement. Apparatus is also provided for keeping the member centered in the slot, and includes a ball mounted on the center of each side of the member which rides in a semicircular longitudinal channel along the center of the slot sidewall and is freely slidable and rotatable therein.
