This constant velocity joint is usually used by connecting the shaft portion of the outer joint member to the differential of an automobile. For example, in the case of a structure in which the shaft part of the outer joint member is connected to the mounting hole of the differential by serration coupling and is retained by a snap ring, etc., it is necessary to press-fit and remove the constant velocity joint when pressing it into or removing it from the differential. Tools are used. Therefore, there is one in which an engagement groove for engaging the press-fitting jig is provided on the outer circumference of the outer joint member along the circumferential direction.

There are roughly two methods for forming the engaging groove. The first method is, as shown in FIG. 6, an outer joint member 1
The entire material 1A of a is formed thick and the material 1
By cutting A, the engaging groove 18a is formed in the axially central portion of the outer peripheral portion. Then, in the second method, as shown in FIG. 7, the bottom portion 11b of the outer joint member 1b is formed thicker than the width of the engagement groove 18b, and the bottom portion 11b is formed.
The engaging groove 18b is formed on the outer periphery by cutting.

However, when the engaging groove 18a is formed by the first method described above, a large press machine is required at the time of forging due to the large cross-sectional area of the material 1A, and the cutting is performed at the time of cutting. Since the amount is large, there are problems that productivity is low and yield is low. Further, since the outer joint member 1a has thick portions on both sides of the engaging groove 18a, there is a problem that the product weight becomes heavy.

On the other hand, when the engaging groove 18b is formed by the second method, the bottom portion 11b of the outer joint member 1b is thick, so that the weight of the product also becomes heavy. Further, if the bottom portion 11b of the outer joint member 1b is made thick, the distance between the joints is shortened because the constant velocity joint must be moved closer to the wheel side by that amount, so the joint angle accompanying the angular displacement is large. As a result, the life may be shortened and abnormal noise or vibration may be generated.
