Abstract
A coupling assembly adapted for use on an item of equipment having a first component and a second component and including an eccentric axis plate having a first surface that is operatively connected to the first component and a second surface having a drive tang extending therefrom, a slider plate having a first surface that is in operational contact with the drive tang and having a first groove therein and a second surface having a second groove therein, and an adapter plate having a first surface that is in operational contact with the slider plate second surface and having an adapter plate tang extending therefrom and a second surface that is operatively connected to the second component. The longitudinal axis of the first component and the longitudinal axis of the second component are non-parallel, and the assembly is adapted to couple the first component and the second component.
