ABSTRACT:
A self-aligning post is presented to direct and/or balance a load being transmitted. The post has a semispherical end section split from the remaining main cylindrical portion of the post whereby misalignment of the main cylindrical portion is compensated by the split end section. The post is further provided with means for retaining the cylindrical portion in contact with the semispherical end section and for preventing the split end section from slipping from a socket. Preferably, the retaining means is an annular skirt disposed along the flat perimeter of the semispherical end section wherein the cylindrical portion of the post will bear against the skirt during misalignment and thereby prevent slippage.
