What is a Ball Joint?

A Ball Joint is an item in which the end of one member is partly spherical and fits into a corresponding spherical cavity in the other member, thus permitting a relative angular movement. Excludes items specifically designed for vehicular steering and torsion application.

What is a Rigid Connecting Link?

A Rigid Connecting Link (CONNECTING LINK,RIGID) is an item of various cross-sectional shapes which may be of solid or hollow construction. It is specifically designed for attachment to a lever(s) and/or control(s) to actuate various remote mechanisms. It is one of the following: (1) A one-piece item with or without eyes and/or holes in each end which may have bushings or bearings pressed in the eyes; (2) A one-piece item with both ends processed for terminations, excluding threaded end(s); (3) A two-piece construction type item consisting of a body with both ends processed for terminations and a single end attachment; or (4) A three-piece construction type item consisting of a body and two end attachments. Excludes internal combustion engine type piston connecting rods; DRAG LINK, STEERING; LINK, ANCHOR, BRAKE SHOE; TIE ROD, STEERING; and TURNBUCKLE. For cylindrical shaped externally threaded items without end attachments, see ROD, THREADED END and STUD (as modified).

What is a Spur Gearshaft?

A Spur Gearshaft (GEARSHAFT,SPUR) is a gearshaft with a single complement of spur gear teeth. For items with more than one complement of teeth, see GEARSHAFT (1), MULTIPLE GEARS.

NATO Supply Class 3040 is a classification within NATO Supply Group 30, which is dedicated to Mechanical Power Transmission Equipment. Specifically, Class 3040 focuses on Miscellaneous Power Transmission Equipment.

Miscellaneous Power Transmission Equipment refers to a wide range of components and devices used in mechanical power transmission systems. These components are responsible for transmitting power from a power source to various machinery and equipment.

Examples of items that fall under NATO Supply Class 3040 include:

1. Gears: These are toothed wheels that mesh with each other to transmit power and motion between rotating shafts.

2. Pulleys: Pulleys are used to change the direction or speed of a rotating shaft by means of a belt or chain.

3. Sprockets: Similar to pulleys, sprockets are toothed wheels that engage with a chain or a toothed belt to transmit power.

4. Clutches: Clutches are used to engage or disengage power transmission between two rotating shafts.

5. Couplings: Couplings are used to connect two shafts together, allowing for the transmission of power and motion.

6. Bearings: Bearings are used to support and reduce friction between moving parts in a power transmission system.

7. Shafts: Shafts are the rotating elements that transmit power from the power source to the driven machinery.

8. Housings and Casings: These are protective enclosures that house and protect the various components of a power transmission system.

NATO Supply Class 3040 encompasses a wide range of miscellaneous power transmission equipment, ensuring that all necessary components for efficient power transmission are included.
