Ephriam Shay's locomotive patent of 1881, for example, used double universal joints in the locomotive's drive shaft. [15] Charles Amidon used a much smaller universal joint in his bit-brace patented 1884. [16] Beauchamp Tower's spherical, rotary, high speed steam engine used an adaptation of the universal joint c. 1885. [17]
Repeated joints may be summarized by their number; so that joint notation for the SCARA robot can also be written 2RP for example. Joint notation for the parallel Gough-Stewart mechanism is 6-UPS or 6(UPS) indicating that it is composed of six identical serial limbs, each one composed of a universal U, active prismatic P and spherical S joint.
the universal joint consists of an RR serial chain constructed such that the axes of the revolute joints intersect at a 90° angle; the spherical joint consists of an RRR serial chain for which each of the hinged joint axes intersect in the same point; the planar joint can be constructed either as a planar RRR, RPR, and PPR serial chain that ...
The joining technology is used in any type of mechanical joint which is the arrangement formed by two or more elements: typically, two physical parts and a joining element. The mechanical joining systems make possible to form a set of several pieces using the individual parts and the corresponding joining elements.
The very famous example is the joining of piston rod's extension with the connecting rod in the cross head assembly. Advantages: Quick assembly and disassembly is possible; It can take tensile as well as compressive force. Application: Joint between piston rod and cross head of a steam engine; Joint between valve rod and its steam
One example is the coupling used to join a windsurfing rig (sail, mast, and components) to the sailboard. [2] In windsurfing terminology it is usually called a "universal joint", but modern designs are usually based on a strong flexible material, and better technically described as an elastic coupling.
