A helicopter tail folding mechanism for a tail located on the helicopter has a front region located on the tail, a rear region connected to the front region to make a folding movement around the axis on which it is supported, a first shaft located on the front region and a second shaft located on the rear region enables power to be transmitted to the tail rotor during the flight movement of the helicopter, a first coupling and a second coupling located on the first shaft both with a threaded form, a first hub located on the first shaft surrounding the first coupling all around that is form-fitting to the first coupling to enable the first coupling to make at least a partial spherical rotational movement, and a second hub located on the second shaft to be arranged opposite to the second coupling and being form-fitting to the second coupling.
