Ein derartiges Gleichlaufgelenk ist beispielsweise aus der DE-A1 38 32 190 bekannt. Bei diesem axial verschieblichen Gleichlaufgelenk ist das Gelenkaußenteil über den Arbeitsbe reich der das Drehmoment übertragenen Kugeln hinaus zu einer Hülse verlängert an die ein diese Hülse abschließender Boden und ein daran befestigtes Wellenende angeordnet ist. Über dieses Wellenende ist das Gleichlaufgelenk mit einer Getriebewelle verbindbar. In das topfförmige Gelenkaußenteil ragt das Ende einer Achswelle, auf deren Umfang das die Ge lenkkugeln tragende Gelenkinnenteil mittels einer Steckverzahnung gelagert ist. Eine das Wellenende umfassende Feder drückt axial derart gegen das Gelenkinnenteil, daß dieses gegen einen Sicherungsring auf der Achswelle drückend axial unverschieblich auf dieser Welle gesichert wird.Such a constant velocity joint is known for example from DE-A1 38 32 190. At this axially displaceable constant velocity joint is the outer joint part above the Arbeitsbe range of the balls transmitted the torque extended to a sleeve to the one this sleeve terminating bottom and an attached shaft end is arranged. The constant velocity joint can be connected to a gear shaft via this shaft end. In the pot-shaped outer joint part protrudes the end of an axle shaft, on the circumference of which the Ge steering ball bearing inner joint part is mounted by means of splines. One that Spring encompassing shaft end presses axially against the inner joint part such that this pressing against a locking ring on the axle shaft axially immovable on this Shaft is secured.
Außerdem ist aus der DE-A1 31 32 365 ein Gleichlaufgelenk bekannt, bei dem das Gelenk außenteil einen etwa hohlzylindrischen Abschnitt aufweist, in den ein im Durchmesser klei neres, aber ebenfalls zylindrisches Anschlußteil einer Getriebeausgangswelle aufnehmbar und axial fixierbar ist. Zur axialen Verbindung zwischen diesen beiden Bauteilen dient ein Sicherungsring, der in Umfangsnuten des Gelenkaußenteils und des Anschlußteils der Ge triebeausgangswelle eingreift. Nachteilig an diesem Aufbau ist, daß ein vergleichsweise großes axiales Spiel entsteht.In addition, a constant velocity joint is known from DE-A1 31 32 365, in which the joint outer part has an approximately hollow cylindrical section into which a small diameter Neres, but also cylindrical connector part of a transmission output shaft can be accommodated and is axially fixable. A serves for the axial connection between these two components Circlip in the circumferential grooves of the outer joint part and the connecting part of the Ge drive output shaft engages. The disadvantage of this structure is that it is comparatively great axial play arises.
Ausgehend von diesem Stand der Technik besteht die Aufgabe an die Erfindung darin, eine Vorrichtung zur lösbaren Verbindung eines Tripode- oder Gleichlaufgelenkes mit einer Welle zu schaffen, die einerseits einen einfachen Aufbau des Gleichlaufgelenkes und der Verbin dungsvorrichtung erlaubt und andererseits eine schnelle und einfache Trennung der Ver bindung zwischen dem Gelenk und der Welle ermöglicht. Zu dem soll eine weitgehende axiale Spielfreiheit gewährleistet sein. Based on this prior art, the object of the invention is to provide a Device for releasably connecting a tripod or constant velocity joint to a shaft to create the one hand a simple structure of the constant velocity joint and the verbin Permitting device and on the other hand a quick and easy separation of the Ver allows connection between the joint and the shaft. In addition, an extensive axial backlash can be guaranteed.
Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe ergibt sich aus den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1, während vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen und Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung den Unteransprüchen ent nehmbar sind.The solution to this problem results from the features of claim 1, while advantageous further developments and refinements of the invention ent the dependent claims are acceptable.
