Abstract

651,890. Universal joints. METALASTIK, Ltd., and HIRST, A. J. Sept. 17, 1948, No. 24477. [Class 80(ii)] The elements, Fig. 3, of a flexible drive coupling comprising substantially tangential pairs of links 10, 13 and 11, 12, one end of each of which is connected to an intermediate member 17 comprising two parallel plates and the other end is so connected to respective driving and driven members (not shown), that all the links are in tension when conveying torque. Rubber bushes 14 are bonded to the bores at each end of the links and to sleeves 15 by which the links are secured by bolts 16 and nuts (not shown), to the intermediate, driving and driven members. The complete coupling, for permitting lateral misalignment in engines or variable delivery pumps, shown in Fig. 5, has sleeves 26 within the sleeves 15 to space the coupling elements from radial spiders 22, 23 of the driving and driven flanges 20, 21, to which they, together with pressed steel covers 30, 31, are secured by bolts 25, 29 and nuts 28. In modifications, a single cast or forged intermediate member is used in conjunction with links comprising pairs of parallel plates, and an application of the coupling to the joint between an engine and gear-box or propeller shaft is described.
