ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a double pivot tilt joint for connecting two shafts for synchronous rotation and for tilting movement relative to one another. The double pivot tilt joint includes a first shaft member and a first pivot pin extending at least partially through the first shaft member. The double pivot tilt joint also includes a pivot block receiving the first pivot pin such that the first shaft member and the pivot block are pivotally coupled to one another about the first pivot pin. The double pivot tilt joint also includes a second pivot pin extending at least partially through the pivot block transverse to the first pivot pin. The double pivot tilt joint also includes a second shaft member receiving the second pivot pin such that the pivot block and the second shaft member are pivotally coupled to one another about the second pivot pin. The double pivot tilt joint also includes a groove defined by the first pivot pin and receiving the second pivot pin.
