ABSTRACT:
In a rigid (non-sliding) homokinetic or constant velocity universal joint, an inner joint member is positioned within an outer joint member. The inner joint has a spherical outer surface which is guided by a spherical inner surface of the outer joint. Grooves in each of the joint members are arranged in pairs with a ball seated in and extending between the grooves in each pair for transmitting torque from one joint member to the other. Each groove is formed on a circular arc with a pair of grooves in the same joint member being formed on the same circular arc. The planes extending through the center line of two adjacent pairs of grooves in the same joint member intersect the axis of rotation of the joint members at a position spaced outwardly from the center of the joint.
