universal-joint couplings
These couplings are used where shafts intersect at any angle or where pivoted members must be driven. If there is an offset in the two shafts, or if one or both shafts must change location during operation, two of these couplings are used, and one is fitted with a splined joint mating with the connecting intermediate shaft to allow axial movement.
