SPLINE MECHANISM OF VEHICLE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a mechanism reducing rattling noise in the spline mechanism that connects a driving shaft and a driven shaft in a relatively nonrotatable manner.SOLUTION: Since a relative rotation angle between a driving shaft 10 and a driven shaft 12a allowed by a positioning groove 34 and a ball 36 is set smaller than an angle equivalent to backlash between a shaft spline 22a and a hole spline 24a, backlash at the time when the driving shaft 10a and the driven shaft 12a are fitted to each other is reduced, so that rattling noise can be reduced.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
