プのヨークに対する変位を確実に抑止し、静粛で安定し
た運転を行うことができる自在継手を得るにある。This kind of universal joint is relatively easy to assemble because the bearing cap is pressed against the yoke by the cap.
Before bolting the cap to the yoke, it was not easy to position the shaft end of the cross-shaped shaft with respect to the yoke, and it took a lot of time to set it. Also, while the universal joint is operating,
Since the cruciform shaft was displaced with respect to the yoke, quiet and stable operation could not be performed. Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to facilitate positioning of the shaft end of a cross-shaped shaft bearing cap with respect to the yoke before bolting the cap to the yoke, and for the cross-shaped shaft bearing cap during operation of the universal joint. The purpose of the present invention is to obtain a universal joint that can reliably suppress the displacement of the yoke with respect to the yoke and can perform quiet and stable operation.

ークに対する位置決めが容易となり組立が簡単になる。(Means for Solving the Problem) In order to solve this problem, the present invention provides a universal joint in which a shaft end of a cross-shaped shaft is held by a forked end of a yoke and a cap via a bearing cap. An adjusting ring groove is formed in at least one of the half hole for holding the bearing cap of the yoke and the half hole of the cap facing the half hole, and the axial direction position of the bearing cap is accommodated in the adjusting ring groove. A circular or semi-circular adjustment ring is provided, and the adjustment ring is provided with a protrusion projecting to one side from the plane of the adjustment ring and directed toward the center from the inner surface of the ring, and the adjustment ring is provided at the end of the bearing cap. A notch that abuts the protrusion is provided. (Function) Since a circular or semi-circular adjustment ring is set in advance in the half hole of the yoke and the cross-shaped shaft is incorporated. Assembly becomes easy to position with respect to the yoke of the cross shaft is simplified.

ねじ孔26を有する。The yoke 6 has a spline hole 12 to which a spline shaft (not shown) is to be connected, and a half hole 16 for receiving a bearing cap 14 at the shaft end of the cruciform shaft 4 is formed at a bifurcated end. The yoke 6 has a flat surface 22 in contact with the mounting surface 20 of the cap 18 for pressing the bearing cap 14, and has a screw hole 26 corresponding to the bolt hole 24 of the cap 18.
本考案では第2図(a)に示すように半割孔16に、それ

出する。As shown in FIG. 5, the adjusting ring 28 is circular, whereas the adjusting ring 30 of FIG. 6 is semi-circular and both have protrusions 34.
The protrusion 34 projects toward the center of the adjustment ring and
As shown in FIG. 6B, the adjustment ring also slightly projects to one side.
第7図に示すようにヨーク6とキャップ18とに十字形軸

る。In this case, the adjusting ring 28 or 30 is set and placed in the adjusting ring groove 32 in the half hole 16 of the yoke 6,
The cross shaft 4 is assembled and the cap 18 is bolted. In this case, the position of the bearing cap at each shaft end of the cross shaft 4 is determined by the adjusting ring, which has the advantage of facilitating assembly. If the cruciform axis changes or if a machining error occurs on the same cruciform axis, prepare a few adjustment rings with different thicknesses of the adjustment rings 28 or 30 or a few adjustment rings in advance. It can respond to changes in the type of cruciform axis.
また十字形軸の軸端を調整リングで押えるから、作動中
ガタを生ずることなく静粛な運転を行なうことができ、
安定した自在継手運動を行なうことができる。Also, since the shaft end of the cross-shaped shaft is pressed by the adjustment ring, quiet operation can be performed without rattling during operation.
A stable universal joint movement can be performed.
尚、第5図のような円形の調整リングを使用する場合
は、キャップの半割孔17にも調整リング溝を形成するこ
ともちろんである。When the circular adjustment ring as shown in FIG. 5 is used, it goes without saying that the adjustment ring groove is also formed in the half hole 17 of the cap.
