A Pot-type universal joint transmits torque from one shaft to another using four rollers mounted on four trunnions. The trunnions maintain their mutual perpendicularity under all operating conditions. They are free to move relatively to each other and to the shaft to which they are joined but in a way that satisfies the kinematic requirements set forth in the specification, while providing a torsionally rigid connection between the shafts. The transmission of torque is homokinetic. The joint is adaptable for either axially fixed or axially displaceable requirements.
