Abstract: A rolling boot that has improved stability especially at increased rotational speeds comprises a first fastening region, a second fastening region, a transition region adjacent to the first fastening region, as well as a diaphragm region adjoining the transition region, and at least on peripheral reinforcement fin is arranged on an external side of the transition region.

Abstract: A boot is provided in which the formation of an internal pressure inside the boot during assembly is prevented. The boot has a first fastening region and a first diameter and having a second fastening region with a second diameter, wherein the first diameter is smaller than the second diameter, and wherein the first fastening region comprises a binder seat region on its outer circumference, wherein at an inner circumference of the first fastening region at least one first and at least one second aerating means are arranged axially spaced from each other at the inner circumference which is formed with a flat surface, and protrude beyond said surface of the inner circumference.

Abstract: A rolling boot comprises a first fastening region for fastening the boot to a joint casing, a second fastening region for fastening the boot to a shaft, and a fold region between the first and the second fastening region with a first fold near to the first fastening region and a second fold near to the second fastening region. The boot further comprises, between the first fastening region and the first fold, a first transition region comprising a first flange neighboring the first fastening region with a bottom. A ratio between a first minimal diameter D1, defined by the bottom of the first flange of the first transition region, and a second maximal diameter D2, defined by the first fold, where both are viewed in a longitudinal section direction along the main axis, is between approximately 1:1.01 to approximately 1:1.25.

Abstract: A rotational fixed connection has a shaft whose axial end is provided with outer shaft teeth and a hub whose through-bore is provided with inner teeth. The connection is useful between a driveshaft in the driveline of a motor vehicle and a joint hub of a universal tripod joint or a constant velocity universal ball joint. The joints include the hub, torque transmitting roller elements, and an outer joint part. The outer shaft teeth of the shaft, at a distance from the hub teeth end at the shaft shank end, run out steplessly into the shaft shank. The outer shaft teeth end inside the hub with a stepped end. In the region following the outer shaft teeth, the shaft includes a tooth-free end portion. The tooth-free end portion carries or forms fixing elements which axially securingly rest against a hub end face at the end where the shaft terminates.

Abstract: A constant velocity universal joint of the tripode type includes a roller assembly arranged on the tripode arm which is secured against unintentionally disengagement with the tripode arm. A pressure disc is provided which holds the roller assembly together as a unit and whose shape, relative to the ideal round shape, deviates radially inwardly. The radially inwardly directed deviation in shape is designed with a slightly smaller width of opening than the dimension corresponding to the maximum outer diameter of the spherical arm. In this way it is ensured that the roller assembly on the spherical tripode arm is self-holding after having been mounted.

Abstract: A constant velocity universal joint of the tripode type increases the torque transmitting capacity of the joint while the size of the joint remains unchanged, and, respectively, with a predetermined torque capacity, to reduce the size of the joint, especially the outer diameter of the joint. This is achieved in that the joint is guided entirely by the outer roller and that the securing means for the roller assembly on the tripode arm are displaced radially inwardly with reference to the joint axis.

Abstract: The area pressure in a constant velocity universal joint of the tripode type is reduced to improve the lubrication conditions. The ends of the arms of the inner joint part facing the two directions of rotation of the joint arms are each provided with a face extending parallel to the longitudinal axis of the joint and to the axis of the respective arm. The inner is produced by a forming tool divided into two parts. The workpiece is journal-shaped and when shown in an axial section, comprises a convexly curved outer circumference. The pressing and/or forging burr is formed in such a way that the use of the workpiece is not adversely affected and therefore subsequent machining of the burr is not required. In the region of the burr, there is the face as a result of which the burr, relative to the outer contour, is displaced radially inwardly.
