ABSTRACT:
The flexure joint for connecting two members for relative angular displacement comprises a pair of flexure leaves which merge with the members at their ends and cross each other and are rigidly connected with each other at the crossing point. Relative angular displacement of the members results in a flexure of the leaves. The flexure universal joint for connecting a gyroscope to its driving member comprises a Cardan member hinged by a pair of co-axial spaced flexure joints of the kind described hereinabove for relative angular displacement about a first hinge axis to the driving member and hinged by a second pair of co-axial spaced flexure joints of the same type to the gyroscope member for relative angular displacement about a second hinge axis, which intersects the axis of rotation of said gyroscope at right angles, said first hinge axis intersecting said second hinge axis and the axis of rotation of said driving member at right angles.
