Abstract :
A virtual prototype was established in ADAMS software environment in terms of the geometrical model of the tripod sliding universal joint set up with CAD software of Pro/Engineer. Dynamic properties thereof were then observed and the load curves of the main elements were obtained under practical operating conditions. The gained results are important reference data for the structure design and optimization thereof.
