ABSTRACT:
A plunging tripod constant velocity universal joint consists of an outer joint member with a cavity having three longitudinal chambers. An inner joint member is displaced within this cavity. The inner joint member consists of a spider member and three sets of roller assemblies. The roller assemblies each have an annular inner roller, an annular outer roller and a plurality of needle rollers. The inner and outer rollers are provided with flanges which form a pocket to retain the plurality of needles without the use of snap rings.
