ABSTRACT:
The axial load-carrying ability of an axially-lobed, nearly-spherical elastomeric joint is enhanced by offsetting the elastomer layers so that there is more elastomer to react the load in compression. The improvement is useful in the application of the joint to a gimbal-like rotor system.
