Cotter joint with Gibb · 模型 88276
This joint is generally used to connect two rods of square or rectangular cross-section. To make the joint, one end of the rod is formed into a U-fork, into which, the end of the other rod fits in. When a cotter is driven-in, the friction between the cotter and straps of the U-fork, causes the straps to open. This is prevented by the use of a gib. A gib is also a wedge shaped piece of retangular cross-section with two rectangular projections called lugs. One side of the gib is tapered and the other straight. The tapered side of the gib bears against the tapered side of the cotter such that, the outer edges of the cotter and gib as a unit are parallel. This facilitates making of slots with parallel edges, unlike the tapered edges in case of ordinary cotter joint. Further, the lugs bearing against the outer surfaces of the fork, prevents the opening tendency of the straps.
