  • Patent number: 6160226
    Abstract: Movement transformation system applied to at least two rotary assemblies ER1, ER2 with non-convergent main axes, allowing the transmission of an angular displacement of at least one component 9, 10 of a first rotary assembly ER1 to at least one component 4, 5 of at least a second rotary assembly ER2, the first rotary assembly ER1 being in addition able to rotate freely about a second axis perpendicular to the first, characterized in that each component 9, 10 of the first rotary assembly ER1 is fitted with a mechanical connecting device 12, 13 intended to cooperate with a mechanical connecting device 14, 15 of a component 4, 5 of a second rotary assembly ER2, the devices 12, 13, 14, 15 being configured in such a way as to simultaneously transmit and transform the rotary movement of the component 9, 10 of the first assembly ER1 into a rotary movement of a component 4, 5 about the axis of the second assembly ER2, without inhibiting the rotation of any of the components 9, 10 of the first assembly ER1 about their

  • Patent number: 5961245
    Abstract: A system for axially locking the end of a shaft in a sleeve whereby the shaft fits axially into the sleeve until both parts are fully engaged, in which both parts are locked together. Axial locking is achieved by a latch disposed on the outside of the sleeve and which pivots into a slot made in a wall of the sleeve, such that the latch can be inserted in an orifice of the shaft positioned opposite the slot when the shaft is fully engaged in the sleeve.
