2. Swashplate (aeronautics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swashplate_(aeronautics)

   1. Non-rotating outer ring (blue). 2. Turning inner ring (silver). 3. Ball joint. 4. Control (pitch) preventing turning of outer ring. 5. Control (roll). 6. Linkages (silver) to the rotor blade. In aeronautics, a swashplate is a mechanical device that translates input via the helicopter flight controls into motion of the main rotor blades.

3. Ball joint - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ball_joint

   In an automobile, ball joints are spherical bearings that connect the control arms to the steering knuckles, and are used on virtually every automobile made. [1] They bionically resemble the ball-and-socket joints found in most tetrapod animals. [2] A ball joint consists of a bearing stud and socket enclosed in a casing; all these parts are ...

4. Double wishbone suspension - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_wishbone_suspension

   In elevation view, the suspension is a 4-bar link, and it is easy to work out the camber gain (see camber angle) and other parameters for a given set of bushing or ball-joint locations. The various bushings or ball joints do not have to be on horizontal axes, parallel to the vehicle center line. If they are set at an angle, then anti-dive and ...

5. Multi-link suspension - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-link_suspension

   Typically each arm has a spherical joint (ball joint) or rubber bushing at each end. Consequently, they react to loads along their own length, in tension and compression, but not in bending. Some multi-links do use a trailing arm, control arm or wishbone, which has two bushings at one end.

6. Control arm - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_arm

   Although not deliberately free to move, the single bushing does not control the arm from moving back and forth; this motion is constrained by a separate link or radius rod. [2] This is in contrast to the wishbone, which are triangular and have two widely spaced inboard bearings. These constrain the outboard end of the wishbone from moving back ...

7. Mechanical joint - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical_joint

   In an automobile, ball joints are spherical bearings that connect the control arms to the steering knuckles. They are used on virtually every automobile made [4] and work similarly to the ball-and-socket design of the human hip joint. [5] A ball joint consists of a bearing stud and socket enclosed in a casing; all these parts are made of steel ...
