ABSTRACT:
A plunging constant velocity ratio universal joint comprising an outer joint member (1) with three circumferentially spaced pairs of tracks (19, 20) in its interior, an inner joint member (3) with outwardly extending pairs of limbs (17, 18) with opposed part-cylindrical surfaces (17a, 18a), and three intermediate members each with a part-spherical portion (2) received between the surfaces (17a, 18a) of the limbs, and projections (10, 11) extending in opposite directions therefrom. Each projection has a pair of oppositely disposed tracks (13, 14, 15, 16) facing the tracks in the outer joint member, at least two rolling members (5, 6, 7, 8) engaging in the facing tracks of the projections and outer joint member, and respective cage (4) for constraining the rolling members of each intermediate member relative to one another.
