ABSTRACT:
A flexible universal gear box for motor vehicles that mounts a pair of yokes movable relative to one another about a pivot member. The yokes are secured to different portions of the motor vehicle. The pivot member can be the main drive shaft of the motor vehicle or the joined wheel axles of the front or rear wheels of the vehicle, as examples. A first shaft member or first and second shaft members pass through the respective bodies of the yokes and join respective bevel gears that in turn are meshed with a pivot bevel gear connected to the pivot member. The movement of one portion of the body of the vehicle relative to the other portion of the body of the vehicle moves one yoke relative to the other yoke and simultaneously causes the rotation of the affected bevel gear around the pivot bevel gear to which it is meshed by way of the simultaneous movement of the affected shaft members.
