ABSTRACT:
A device for connecting a speedometer to a flexible shaft has an annular groove provided round the outer circumference of the stem of the meter, the stem being pierced by a rotating shaft which is connected to the inner shaft of the flexible shaft and is arranged to be rotated by the rotation of the inner shaft; a connecting tube consisting of a front tube part which is arranged to be fitted onto the stem and is provided with a pair of piercing holes confronting each other and a rear tube part which is coupled with the front tube part and is secured to the end of the flexible shaft; and a U-shaped embracing or arm member which is made of an elastic material and is provided with a pair of confronting claws at both ends thereof. The arm member is arranged to be fitted onto the outer circumference of the front tube part in such a way as to embrace it with the claws engaging the piercing holes. The claws are arranged to enter and engage the annular groove when the front tube part is fitted onto the stem.
