ABSTRACT:
A constant velocity universal joint for transmitting driving torque between rotative members, including an outer race member with an axial annular recess therethrough, the annular recess in the outer race member being enlarged at one end to accommodate an inner race member that has a bulbous end with a plurality of radially aligned circumferentially spaced bores positioned in the bulbous end. The inner race member also has an axially positioned bore in the bulbous end. A pin is positioned in the bore within the bulbous end and a plurality of spherical balls are positioned in the bores so that each spherical ball rests against the outer surface of the pin. The inner race member and the spherical balls telescope into the outer race member and are restrained from axial separation by a restraining ring seated in the outer race member.
