ABSTRACT:
A universal joint assembly comprises a first rotary member having a first longitudinal axis and an outer tubular portion at one end thereof concentrically disposed about the axis, a second rotary member having a second longitudinal axis and an inner tubular portion at one end thereof concentrically disposed about the axis, the second member being adapted to be telescopically received within the outer tubular end portion of the first member, a ball bearing for transmitting axial loads between the first and second members, the bearing pivotally connecting the first and second members whereby to provide limited omni-directional pivotal movement of one of the first and second members with respect to the other of the first and second members about a point of intersection of the longitudinal axes of the first and second members, and a slot and key engagement disposed between the outer and inner tubular end portions for transferring torque between the first and second members, the longitudinal slots formed in one of the tubular end portions and keys extending from the other of the tubular end portion into torque transfer relation with the slots.
