I know that the "CV" in "CV-Joints" refers  to "constant velocity".  But
what exactly does this mean?  Under which conditions  and where is there
a  constant velocity?    And  why  do  normal U-Joints   under  the same
conditions not have this constant velocity property?

Inquiring minds want to know :-)
