ABSTRACT:
A homokinetic joint of the type wherein torque is transmitted between two heads by means of balls engaged in tracks formed in said heads, said tracks being in the form of grooves. The axes of both grooves in each of the ball rolling tracks are disposed so as to make an angle with one another both in the radial plane containing the center of the respective ball and the plane perpendicular thereto, containing said center. The angle of the grooves is higher in the radial direction than in the direction perpendicular thereto. The invention is applied to homokinetic joints, whether sliding or not, particularly adapted to automobile vehicles.
