MEJORAS EN CONJUNTO DE CUBO DE RUEDA Y DE JUNTA HOMOCINETICA PARA VEHICULO

摘要

The assembly comprises a hub and a homokinetic joint comprising a first tripod element connected to the hub and defining three trunnions on which are mounted three part-spherical rollers and a second element connected to a transmission shaft and defining three raceways in which the rollers carried by the tripod element are received. The hub defines a cavity in which is received at least partly this tripod element which constitutes a distinct part and is connected to the wall of this cavity by an auxiliary homokinetic coupling. The latter is capable of operating at a given angle which is added to the normal pivoting or break angle of the joint and consequently increases the maximum break angle of the joint.
