CONSTANT-VELOCITY JOINT WITH AN AXIALLY RETAINED TRIPOD

摘要

A constant-velocity joint with a tripod of the type comprising a tulip and a tripod whose center pivots with radial freedom of movement against the base of the tulip. The tripod is held under axial prestress against this base by an elastic clip having a central part in the form of a cup comprising a base which is in contact with a facing surface of the center of the tripod, and a side wall from the peripheral edge of which extend legs, the free ends of which are joined to the tulip. Each portion of the side wall which extends between two consecutive legs has a hole.
