Abstract
A transmission joint body (10) intended to be connected to a shaft (13) has several bearing paths for articulation elements distributed around an axis (X--X) of the body. Each bearing path comprises two fixed or movable tracks (14) arranged so as to cooperate with articulation elements of the transmission joint. Each track is constituted by a first surface (16) of a metal part (14). A second surface (18) is associated with a complementary surface (20) of the joint body (10) formed in a portion (12) of the joint body constructed of a composite material constituted by a reinforced thermosetting or thermoplastic matrix. At central longitudinal axis (ACR) of each bearing path, contained in a plane containing the axis (X--X) of the shaft (13), forms an angle (.alpha.) with the geometrical axis of the shaft.
