ABSTRACT:
A transmission joint of the sliding type in which a first element (12) is connected to a first shaft (14) and comprises trunnion journals (20) distributed angularly in a regular manner about the geometrical axis (A1) of the first shaft (14), each trunnion journal (20) receives a rolling element (22) which is mounted so as to rotate and slide on the trunnion journal, the geometrical axis (AT) of the trunnion journal forms a first acute angle with respect to a reference line perpendicular to the axis (A1) of the first shaft (14) and contained within a plane containing the geometrical axes (A1, AT) of the first shaft (14) and of the trunnion journal (20), and in which a second element (16) is connected to a second shaft (18) and comprises rolling paths distributed angularly in a regular manner about the geometrical axis (A2) of the second shaft, each rolling path comprises two parallel tracks (34) between which is accommodated a rolling element (22), the center longitudinal axis (ACR) of the rolling path contained within a plane containing the geometrical axis (A2) of the second shaft (18) forms a second acute angle with the geometrical axis (A2) of the second shaft, characterized in that the value of each of the said acute angles is less than 15.degree..
