ABSTRACT:
The homokinetic transmission device is placed between a driving shaft and a driven shaft comprising two adjacent articulated joints. The articulated joints comprise a common intermediate member and are generally homokinetic and at least one of the joints is slidable. The arrangement of the two joints is adapted to permit a relative radial displacement between the two shafts. If h and l are the respective distances between the centers of the two adjacent tripod joints and the center of gravity of the transmission device interconnecting the two shafts, and .rho..sup.2 and Io/m, where Io represents the inertia of an intermediate member about an axis perpendicular to its general axis and to the direction of lateral displacement of said member and intersecting the center of gravity G, and where m represents the mass of the intermediate member, the following conditions are at least roughly satisfied:
