ABSTRACT:
This tripod homokinetic coupling, intended in particular to be employed in front-wheel drive automobile vehicles, is improved in order to achieve an axial retention which is a function of the torque transmitted and thereby avoid percussions which are produced in conventional arrangements or an excessive wear.
For this purpose, the axes of the raceways for the rollers on the trunnions are inclined with respect to the axis of the associated shaft so that there results on the rollers an axial force whose orientation and magnitude depend on the sign and the magnitude of the torque transmitted.
