Constant velocity drive shaft Constant velocity universal joint is an organization that connects two non-coincident shafts and enables the two shafts to transmit motion at the same angular velocity. It is an important component in the transmission system of a car. Its effect is to transfer the power of the engine from the transmission (differential) to the driving wheels of the car, satisfying the requirements of the outer end of the car's transmission shaft; Wheels; to compensate for the beating of the inner end suspension of the car. Drive the car at high speed.

       There are many types of constant velocity universal joints used in cars. Among them, the most used are ball type constant velocity universal joints, three groove type constant velocity universal joints, and inclined raceway constant velocity universal joints. It is mainly an inner ball cage. , Outer spherical cage and half shaft. Because constant velocity universal joints transmit heavy driving torque, with heavy load, the transmission accuracy is high, the demand is great, and it is also a safety part, so its main parts are all made of precision forgings.

       Constant velocity joint, English name: cv joint(constant velocity joint)

       Constant velocity universal joints are universal joints in which the rotational speed (angular velocity) of the driving shaft and the driven shaft are equal. In front-wheel-drive cars, the front axle is equipped with a constant velocity universal joint drive shaft (drive and steering). The power of a front-wheel drive car must be directly transmitted to the front wheels from the powertrain composed of the engine, transmission and final drive. The front wheel is both a driving wheel and a steering wheel. The deflection point of view during steering is very large, and the maximum can reach more than 400. At this time, the traditional universal universal joint shaft with a small deflection angle cannot be used.

       Because, in general, when the deflection angle of the universal joint is large, the rotation speed and torque will fluctuate greatly. Therefore, a constant velocity universal joint drive shaft with a large deflection angle and uniform angular velocity must be used. The principle of constant velocity universal joint is similar to the principle of bevel gear meshing, because the direction of the force transmission point is always on the bisecting plane of the angle between the two shafts, thus ensuring constant velocity motion. The defects of constant velocity universal joints are that the structure is relatively complex, the manufacturing process is fine, and the cost is high, so it cannot completely replace the general universal joints. The appearance of constant velocity joints has greatly promoted the development of front-wheel drive cars and all-wheel drive cars. Constant velocity universal joints for front-wheel drive are divided into two types: fixed at the wheel end and sliding at the differential end. The latter can slide elastically in the axial direction to compensate for changes in axial length.
