Many different types of constant-velocity joints have been invented since then.

Today, a number of rebuilders offer better-than-new constant-velocity joints at reasonable prices.

Constant-velocity joints were used instead of Universal joints.

During the 1980s, GKN sought to invest its earnings from constant-velocity joints in developing other nascent technologies.

They are used at both ends of driveshafts, protecting constant-velocity joints from the ingress of dirt, and retaining the grease.

One of NTN's objectives was to begin production of constant-velocity joints in North America.

These competitions uncovered that the front drive universal joint was prone to break under heavy stress, so in 1976 the Corcel line switched to constant-velocity joints.

GKN Driveline is the world's largest producer of constant-velocity joints, which it pioneered for use in automobiles.

In automobile and truck prop shaft designs, they have now mostly been replaced by constant-velocity joints or driveshafts with pairs of universal joints.

The hard steering was attributed to not having constant-velocity joints for the front halfshafts and to unequal-length halfshafts without matching torsional characteristics.

In fact, spherical bearings are used in smaller sub-components of this type of suspension, for example certain types of constant-velocity joints.

Following a fall in demand for turbine blades in the late 1950s, the BRD factory switched to producing constant-velocity joints and driveshafts for vehicles.

Meineke intends to keep the slogan, while broadening its advertising to promote its services on brakes and other car parts like the constant-velocity joints found in front-wheel-drive cars.

The following year, NTN Toyo also licensed Lepco Company and Taiway to produce additional constant-velocity joints.

The driveshafts had now ceased to be a structural part of the suspension, so they could be fitted with constant-velocity joints that allowed their length to vary with suspension travel.

It was an affordable way to produce a car with all round independent suspension, without the need for expensive constant-velocity joints needed by front-wheel-drive cars, or axle arrangements of FR layout cars.

This had slightly wider tracks front and rear, and a rear suspension featuring semi-axles with constant-velocity joints, sprung by transverse torsion bars, rather than the Brasilia's simpler semi-trailing rear.

Constant-velocity joints (aka homokinetic or CV joints) allow a drive shaft to transmit power through a variable angle, at constant rotational speed, without an appreciable increase in friction or play.

The suspension system included MacPherson struts and coil springs at front and semi-trailing arms with coil springs at rear, with a body-mounted rear differential and four constant-velocity joints.

They are also used to replace Rzeppa style constant-velocity joints in applications where high articulation angles, or impulsive torque loads are common, such as the driveshafts and halfshafts of rugged four wheel drive vehicles.

The 109 V8 has constant velocity joints within its hubs.

Achieved 200 million target for domestic production of constant velocity joints.

The drive was transmitted to the front wheels via short shafts and constant velocity joints.

In addition to the bearing products produced by the company, the facility manufactures constant velocity joints and precision equipment.

Bendix "Tracta" type constant velocity joints were fitted at all wheel stations.

GKN has about a 45% share of the global market for constant velocity joints mainly competing against in-house suppliers.

The rear suspension boogies and constant velocity joints fitted by Chandler could take this slamming in stride.

The company provides specialist support to manufacturing companies world-wide for motor car constant velocity joints and propeller shafts.

The Tracta Gephi was his first design and it was this car that inspired him to design a constant velocity joint.

The ratings continue to be supported by GKN's strong market position, particularly in driveline technology products including constant velocity joints and torque management devices.

• Make sure wheels are aligned and balanced, and ball joints or constant velocity joints are well lubricated.

During that same year, NTN Fukuroi Corporation became the company's third local factory for constant velocity joints.

Guangzhou NTN-Yulon Drivetrain was formed in 2002 to manufacture constant velocity joints.

The Laplander used constant velocity joints, of the type invented by Alfred H. Rzeppa, in its front axle.

Instead, half-shaft axles fitted with constant velocity joints raised ride height without the wild changes in camber of the Beetle-based swing axle suspension.

Front Wheel Drive: Failure of the following mechanical components, drive shafts, universal joints and couplings, constant velocity joints.

Front-wheel drive Drive shafts, including constant velocity joints, universal joints and couplings [not gaiters].

(In a torque-tube arrangement only a single universal is used at the end of the transmission tailshaft, and this universal should be a constant velocity joint.)

That augurs well for the ability of GKN, already the world’s biggest maker of constant velocity joints, to take market share as the car industry starts to recover.

The constant velocity joint used to make modern articulated drive shafts was unheard of as yet and even the simpler Hooke-type universal joint wasn't yet in common use.

Cardan ("universal") joint at the inner end next to the transaxle, double cardan constant velocity joint at the outer end at the wheel.

The subsidiary manufactures wheel hub assemblies for four wheel drive and front wheel drive vehicles as well as axles for constant velocity joints.

NTN Driveshaft in Columbus, Indiana produces constant velocity joints used in four-wheel, front-wheel and all-wheel drive cars.

Unfortunately his car broke a rear constant velocity joint and hit the 4th turn wall at the end of the pace lap, putting himself out of the race even before the start.

Founded in 1971, NTN Bearing-Singapore is a regional distribution center of bearings, constant velocity joints and precision equipment for the Southeast Asia region.
