Generally, a joint is for transmitting rotational power (torque) between rotational shafts having different angles of rotation axis. In the case of a propulsion shaft having a small power transmission angle, a hook joint, a flexible joint or the like is used. In the case of a drive shaft, a constant velocity joint is used.
The constant velocity joint includes a constant velocity joint connecting shaft for connecting between two constant velocity joints and the constant velocity joint when applied to a vehicle, and is also referred to as a constant velocity joint assembly.
In addition, since the constant velocity joint assembly can transmit power smoothly at a constant speed even when the angle of intersection between the drive shaft and the driven shaft is large, it is mainly used for the axle shaft of the independent suspension type front wheel drive vehicle. The constant-velocity joint of the left-hand side is made of a tripod type constant velocity joint, and the wheel side (outboard side) is made of a ball type constant velocity joint around the shaft.
Meanwhile, in order to reduce the weight of the vehicle and improve the performance of the NVH, efforts have recently been made to reduce the weight of the shaft by using a hollow shaft (pipe).
At this time, both side portions of the shaft are frictionally welded to the hollow shaft, and splines are formed at both ends of the shaft, thereby coupling the spider assembly and the inner race.
