    摘要: A constant velocity universal joint includes an outer joint member and a joint internal component received in the outer joint member. A shaft is fitted into an inner joint member. The outer joint member has a cup bottom formed on a side opposite to a shaft-fitting side. The cup bottom is configured to regulate movement of the joint internal component toward the side opposite to the shaft-fitting side in a normal state in which an impact generated in an abnormal state is not applied. The cup bottom has a cut portion which is to be cut by the impact generated in the abnormal state involving movement of the joint internal component toward the side opposite to the shaft-fitting side.

    摘要: A constant velocity universal joint has an outer joint member and an inner joint member that transmits torque while permitting angular displacement due to balls between the inner and outer joint members. An attaching and detaching mechanism for attaching and detaching a power transmission shaft to and from the inner joint member is provided between the inner joint member and the power transmission shaft such that torque can be transmitted between the two. The attaching and detaching mechanism has a cylindrical member that fits over the power transmission shaft, a retaining ring that is radially movable, and an annular member that is axially movable. By using a boot band to fixedly tighten, to the power transmission shaft, a small diameter end portion of a boot closing an opening portion of the outer joint member, the axial position of the annular member is restricted by the small diameter end portion.

    摘要: A constant velocity universal joint includes an outer joint member and an inner joint member between which torque is transferred through intermediation of balls while allowing angular displacement. A power transmission shaft is coupled to the inner joint member to allow torque transmission therebetween. A mounting and dismounting mechanism configured to mount and dismount the power transmission shaft to and from the inner joint member is provided between the inner joint member and the power transmission shaft. The mounting and dismounting mechanism includes a tubular member, a snap ring mounted inside the tubular member, a pushing member arranged on a radially outer side of the snap ring to be movable in a radial direction, and an annular member arranged on an outer peripheral surface of the tubular member to be movable in an axial direction.

A power transmission shaft is coupled to the inner joint member. A mounting and dismounting mechanism configured to mount and dismount the power transmission shaft to and from the inner joint member is provided between the inner joint member and the power transmission shaft. The mounting and dismounting mechanism includes a tubular member inserted externally on the power transmission shaft so as to extend from the inner joint member, a fixing member received in the tubular member, and an annular member arranged on an outer periphery of the tubular member. The fixing member is moved in the radial direction along with movement of the annular member in the axial direction so that the fixing member is mountable to and dismountable from the power transmission shaft.

    摘要: A constant velocity universal joint includes an outer joint member having an opening portion at one end thereof, and an inner joint member configured to transmit torque while allowing angular displacement with respect to the outer joint member through balls. End portions of a boot closing the opening portion of the outer joint member are fastened and fixed to a mounting part of the outer joint member and a mounting part of a shaft extending from the inner joint member. At a part of an outer peripheral surface of the shaft where at least an inner peripheral surface of the boot contacts when the shaft takes an operating angle with respect to the outer joint member, a sliding bearing is arranged to reduce abrasion due to friction caused by relative movement between the outer peripheral surface of the shaft and the inner peripheral surface of the boot.
