ABSTRACT:
A constant velocity torque transmitting joint comprises an outer joint member having a bore therethrough and an inner joint member positioned within the bore. A plurality of torque transmitting elements, such as balls, are positioned within pairs of opposed grooves formed in the facing surfaces of the inner and outer joint elements. A cage is disposed between the joint elements and has a plurality of openings to retain the balls therein. The cage has an inner concave surface guided upon a convex spherical surface of the inner joint member and an outer spherical surface guided within the bore. The cage comprises a plurality of individual segments each of which receives at least one torque transmitting element and the segments are supported in the radial direction either by direct mutual engagement or by a retaining ring.
