Abstract
In a sealing arrangement for the open space in a homokinetic universal joint formed of an outer joint member defining an interior hollow space and an inner joint member positioned within the hollow space, a sealing boot assembly includes a single part or plural part boot. The assembly includes a ring having a cylindrical inner surface mounted on the outer spherical surface of the outer joint member. When a two-part boot is used, one end of each part is fixed to the ring and the other end is secured to one of the driving or driven parts extending from the universal joint.
