Description Générale
The Hooke’s Joint Mechanism, "MUN", designed by EDIBON, represents a universal coupling, also called a U-joint, Hooke joint or cardan joint. The Hooke joint is a universal mechanism that is often used to transmit rotary motion between two non-parallel but intersecting shafts.
The mechanism includes two universal couplings (cardan joints) joined by an intermediate shaft, allowing the adjustment and reading of the angle between inlet shaft and other outlet shaft by means of graduated discs fixed on the base panel.
Both couplings are mounted on two graduated discs, allowing the reading of the rotation at the input and output.
