Book Description
This publication presents information on technological developments regarding universal joints, including details on design and application practices which have proven to be successful. Engineers, designers, students and others associated with drivetrain engineering will benefit from the Universal Joint and Driveshaft Design Manual's descriptions of the latest technologies practiced in the power transmission field. Design guidelines which assist in the establishment of new designs, improve existing designs, or solve specific problems are explained. Subjects covered include: All power transmitting mechanisms classified as universal joints, both the constant and nonconstant velocity types; the most commonly used driveshaft arrangements that couple universal joints to other driveshaft and drivetrain components; Applications requiring the transmission of power form the power source to a drivetrain member; Drivetrain disturbances; Analytical procedures for design analysis, evaluation and application. Numerous references, appendices and a complete bibliography supplement this single-source reference to the area of universal joints and driveshafts.
