ABSTRACT:
A constant velocity universal joint for high-speed drives such as propeller shafts in motor vehicles has the outer joint part and the inner joint part held relative to one another in an optimum way so that they rotate centrally relative to one another at any angle occurring in operation. This is achieved in that the constant velocity universal joint is provided in the form of a so-called quadripode joint consisting of an outer joint part and an inner joint part which is supported by centering the cross member associated with the inner joint part by means of the arms thereof against respective stops in the outer joint part.
