ABSTRACT:
A universal joint permitting relative angular deflection of two members, vided with transverse stiffness augmentation means which minimize rotational performance penalties. One member contemplates a receptacle adapted to receive in spaced-apart relation therefrom an annular plug formed on the other member. A rolling seal is positioned between the receptacle and plug. Tabs, segments or rings are placed on the annular plug and/or the confronting wall of said one member to increase the transverse stiffness under all load conditions, particularly at angle orientations of the aforesaid two members.
