Abstract: A universal joint arrangement with a journal cross, supported by bearings in two joint yokes offset to one another by 90°. Each joint yoke comprises a flange and two bearings. Each bearing has an axial bearing pressure disk that is supported by a first connection element on the joint yoke and a second connection element on the journal cross to form a first and second friction pairing. One of the connection elements has at least one elevated support region facing the axial bearing pressure disk. The support region is arranged in the region of low relative movement of the joint yoke with the journal cross, while the regions other than the support region lie in the region of greatest relative motion.

Abstract: The invention relates to a universal joint arrangement with a journal cross, supported by bearings in two joint yokes offset to one another by 90° and in reflected arrangement to the plane of symmetry of the journal cross located perpendicular to the joint axis; each joint yoke comprises a flange part and two bearing parts, wherein each bearing part exhibits a bearing bore, in which the journals of the journal cross are supported by bearings; each journal is supported by means of a bearing arrangement; the bearing arrangement comprises one radial bearing and one axial bearing, wherein the axial bearing is designed as a friction bearing.

Abstract: A universal joint arrangement with a journal cross, supported by bearings in two joint yokes offset to one another by 90°. Each joint yoke comprises a flange and two bearings. Each bearing has an axial bearing mold element that is supported by a connection element on the joint yoke and at least indirectly on the journal cross to form a first and second friction pairing. The mold element has a planar face and a second face having at least one elevated support region facing the first or second friction pairing, and is arranged with the support region on the connection element, which elastically deflects under load. The regions on the second face other than the support region are free from contact with the connection element in every load state. The support region is arranged in the region of low relative movement of the connection element with the journal cross, while the regions other than the support region lie in the region of greatest relative motion.

Abstract: A thrust ring, in particular an axial bearing thrust ring, for forming a running surface for rolling elements, for use in bearing systems for universal joints of cardan shafts. The ring has a first planar end side and a second end side, having two surface regions on the second end side which have been machined symmetrically with respect to a first axis of symmetry SD of the thrust ring, and also in terms of its profile in the circumferential direction as seen starting from the first axis of symmetry, in the circumferential direction, to a further, second axis of symmetry SSD which runs at right angles to the first axis of symmetry SD.

Abstract: A flange yoke for a universal joint, two joint fork halves, each comprising a base component and a bearing component. The joint fork halves can be connected in a form-locking manner to one another in the region of their base component to form a flange. The base components have mutually complementary toothing in the region of the outer circumference on their coupling face, wherein the extension of a tooth trace of the toothing on the coupling face forms an angle of from >0 degrees to <180 degrees with a plane formed by the pin axis of a pin supported in a joint fork half and a joint fork axis coinciding with an axis of rotation of the joint fork. A second set of toothing is formed in the region of the joint fork axis on the mutually facing coupling faces of the base components. Extensions of these tooth traces are arranged at an angle of between 70 degrees and 110 degrees inclusive to the extension of a tooth trace of the first set of toothing.
