Patent ID: 7303482

Claim:
A constant velocity joint assembly comprising: an outer joint part having through-holes on a pitch circle; an attaching flange having corresponding threaded holes; and bolts adapted to be passed through the through-holes and threaded into the threaded holes such that the rotational part and the attaching flange are bolted to one another in a way to enable same to transmit torque, wherein at least one bolt comprises a bolt shank and a threaded portion, a diameter of the shank (D 1 ) being greater than a diameter of the threaded portion (D 2 ), and wherein at least one of the through-holes comprises radial projections which reduce the cross-sectional area of the through-hole and which are radially deformed when the at least one bolt is inserted and threaded in, and wherein the at least one bolt, by way of its bolt shank, rests in a play-free way against the projections in the at least one through-hole of the rotational part.
