<p>The present invention provides a constant velocity universal joint for a propeller shaft that achieves sufficient shock absorbing performance and effectively prevents detachment of a sealing plate during assembly and the like. The constant velocity universal joint for a propeller shaft of the present invention includes an outer joint member, an inner joint member fitted into the outer joint member, and a torque transmitting member that is interposed between the outer joint member and the inner joint member and transmits torque. A shaft 31 is inserted into the inner joint member. An internal member S1 including the inner joint member slides along an axial direction in relation to the outer joint member. The outer joint member includes a sealing plate 40 and a circlip 44 disposed closer to the internal member S1 than the sealing plate 40. The circlip 44 restricts contact between the internal member S1 and the sealing plate 40 in a non-impact situation. The circlip 44 allows the internal member S1 to hit the sealing plate 40 side, thereby detaching the sealing plate 40, when impact occurs.</p> |
