A joint used in driveshafts, where the instantaneous speed of the input shaft is exactly the same as the instantaneous speed of the output shaft at any angle of rotation. This does not occur in ordinary universal joints.
Constant velocity (or CV) joint is an advanced version of a universal joint in which the output shaft rotates at constant angular velocity with no cyclic variations, given a constant input shaft speed.
A constant velocity joint is one that provides consistent velocity regardless of the operating angle of the joint. This includes Rzeppa, ball type joints and tripod joints.
Type of universal joint in a halfshaft assembly in which the output shaft turns at a constant angular velocity without variation, provided that the speed of the input shaft is constant.
A Constant Velocity Joint is one that provides consistent drive shaft speeds regardless of the operating angle of the joint. CV joints are used primarily in on the drive shafts of front-wheel drive vehicles, and they come in two basic varieties: the Rzepp
