ABSTRACT:
A universal joint having two intermeshed rotatable assemblies in driving and driven relationship. Each of the assemblies of the joint has a base adapted to be connected to a rotatable device. Each assembly has a plurality of yoke arms fixed at one end to the base and at the other end to a joinder disc through which the axis of rotation of the base passes. Each of the yoke arms extends in a plane including the axis of rotation of the base and curves outwardly from its common point of joinder and then inwardly toward the axis of rotation of the base. Each yoke arm has an eliptical cross-section at its end attached to the base and gradually tapers to a circular cross-section toward its other end at its common point of attachment to the other yoke arms.
