Abstract

A shaft connector for connecting rotating shafts, the male connector 1 having a mating section 2 with a non-circular external cross-section, preferably a circle with a missing segment; a locking peg 5 moveable between protruding and flush positions and biased to the protruding position; and a shaft mounting section 8 attached to said male mating section 2. An angled portion 17 on the peg 5 causes the peg to be automatically depressed when male and female connectors are joined. Also provided is a corresponding female shaft connector 19, having a cavity to receive male mating section 2 from a corresponding male shaft connector 1, which also has a non-circular cross-section perpendicular to the axis of a shaft to be connected.
