Cylindrical joint

Cylindrical joint
Cylindrical joint seen in 3-dimensional view.

A cylindrical joint is a two degrees of freedom kinematic pair used in mechanisms.[1] Cylindrical joints provide single-axis sliding function as well as a single axis rotation, providing a way for two rigid bodies to translate and rotate freely. This can be pictured by an unsecured axle mounted on a chassis, as it may freely rotate and translate.[2]
