ABSTRACT:
A joint for transmitting torque is made up of an outer generally tulip-shaped coupling member, an inner coupling member and an intermediate member received within the outer coupling member and, in turn, receiving a joint pin of the inner coupling member. The intermediate member is formed by two generally symmetrical shell halves, each having a surface contacting the other with the contacting surfaces forming a separation plane. The axis of the joint pin is located in, or closely adjacent to, the separation plane. A shaped spring fits through the two shell halves and into recesses in the opposite ends of the joint pins. Axially aligned pivot pins interconnect the outer coupling member and intermediate member and are located on opposite sides of the joint pin axis. The axes of the pivot pins intersect the joint pin axis at right angles.
