Abstract

PURPOSE: To change an angle crossing a tube to be connected and an axial line within a predetermined range by crossing a contact surface of two tube main bodies to be connected and the axial line at 45 degrees and forming a circle of which center point is a crossing point of the contact surface and the axial line. CONSTITUTION: A universal joint is formed in a manner that a contact surface of two tube main bodies 1, 2 crosses an axial line X-X at an angle of 45 degrees, and a circle of which center point is a crossing point O of the contact surface and the axial line X-X. Connecting means for the two joint main bodies 1, 2 are provided with a male screw 8 at an inner edge 7 of one tube main body 1, and an annular projecting section 10 at an inner edge 9 of the other joint main body 2. The connecting means are connected through an elastic ring 14 by using a female screw 12 and a cap nut 11 having an annular projection 13. As the result, crossing angle of the two tube main bodies and the axis line can be changed at a range between 90 to 180 degrees, so the two tube sections can be easily fit even when there is a difference between positions of two tubes.
