Abstract:
A universal joint having a hub formed by molding a material around four stub axles which are arranged so that a first and second stub axle are axially aligned and a third and fourth stub axle are axially aligned. Furthermore, the axes of the first and second stub axles are perpendicular to and coplanar with the axes of the third and fourth stub axles. A bearing is positioned around each stub axle. A first yoke is then molded around two aligned stub axle bearings and an end of a first axle while, similarly, a second axle is molded around the bearings on the other pair of stub axles and an end of a second axle.
