Zusammenfassung: | Outer ball grooves of an outer joint member of a constant velocity joint each have a first ball groove for allowing a ball to roll therein when the constant velocity joint operates, and a second ball groove having a ball groove radius larger than a ball groove radius of the first ball groove. The second ball groove has a curved line and a connecting line. The curved line is connected to a groove bottom end of the first ball groove located closer to an opening of the outer joint member and is curved radially outward in a concave manner. The connecting line connects the curved line and the opening. The curved line is curved with a curvature center that is located closer to the opening than the groove bottom end of the first ball groove and that is located radially inside the outer joint member. |
