Splined shafts • Cardan and CV joints • Joints • Bolts • Bushings • Ball joints

Splined shafts feature a linear male-female coupling which serves to connect two shafts rigidly.
Cardan joints and universal joints are mechanisms used to transfer the movement between two concurrent shafts rotating at the same
speed and whose operating angle may vary, transmitting extremely high torque.
A universal joint, also known as a tripod, is an articulated joint which allows for oscillatory movement between the drive shafts. CV joints may
be composed of two cardan joints joined by a double pin (Glaencer-Spicer CV joint), or else of a complex ball joint where balls are housed
in a special ball cage or box (Rzeppa CV joint). Another kind of universal joint is the “tracta” type, which features pins on the input and
output shafts coupled to two central parts known as “nuts” (male and female), which are attached to each other in such a way that the
elements which transmit the movement are always in the bisecting plane.
Joints, bolts, bushings and ball joints are self-aligning
elements which allow for the rotation between two
