Constant velocity joint and assembly method therefor

Abstract:

A constant velocity joint includes spherical rollers. At least parts of first inner bottom wall portions provided on an inner bottom wall surface of a cylindrical portion of the constant velocity joint are located in closer proximity to the side of an opening of the cylindrical portion than second inner bottom wall portions. When the spherical rollers are disposed at an innermost location inside the cylindrical portion and the axial directions of the spherical rollers are perpendicular to the axial direction of the cylindrical portion, at least parts of the first inner bottom wall portions abut against inner side outer circumferential surface portions of the spherical rollers, and the second inner bottom wall portions are separated away from outer side outer circumferential surface portions of the spherical rollers.
