Description
Universal couplings are a type of couplings that allow large angular displacements between two shafts. They are suitable for connection between two shafts with large angular displacements. Generally, the maximum shaft angle between two shafts can reach 35 ° ~ 45 °. Moreover, the angle between the two axes can be changed at any time during the running process.
A universal joint, (universal coupling, U-joint, Cardan joint, Hardy-Spicer joint, or Hooke's joint) is a joint or coupling in a rigid rod that allows the rod to 'bend' in any direction, and is commonly used in shafts that transmit rotary motion. It consists of a pair of hinges located close together, oriented at 90° to each other, connected by a cross shaft. The universal joint is not a constant velocity joint.
No machine element other than a cardan shaft allows power transmission of torque between specially offset driving and driven shafts whose position can be changed during operation.
Spatial angular motion and changes of axial length are ensured by advanced constructional elements.
Thus, cardan shafts have become an indispensable transmission component in automotive engineering and industry.
