Outer joint part for a tripod joint

摘要

An outer joint part for a tripod joint has a track portion with three circumferentially distributed, longitudinally extending, axis-parallel inner recesses with approximately parallel walls. A flange is secured to the track portion to connect shaft or gearbox parts. The portion of the outer joint part is produced by cold-forming with an approximately constant wall thickness. The flange includes a central inner recess whose inner contour mates with the outer contour of the track portion. The flange is slid on and connected to the track portion.
