Universal Joint 3D model

cgtrader

Hook's Joint (Universal Joint) effectively connects two rigid rods whose axes intersect, typically in applications where rotary motion must be transferred through inclined shafts. This critical mechanical coupling consists of a pair of hinges placed side by side, precisely positioned at a 90-degree angle relative to one another and linked via a perpendicular cross-axis shaft. While widely used in various configurations, the universal joint itself does not ensure consistent angular velocity.
