摘要 |
The invention relates to a ball joint (11), particularly a radial ball joint, comprising a housing (18), a bearing cup (10) disposed in the housing (18), and a ball stud (26) with a ball head (28) which is arranged inside the bearing cup (10). In order to receive the bearing cup (10) and the ball head (28), the housing (18) is provided with a mounting hole (30) which is closed by means of a housing cover (22) that is mounted on the housing (18). The bearing cup (10) is deformed by the ball head (28) and the housing cover (22) in such a way that the restoring force resulting from the deformation affects the ball head (28) away from the housing cover (22) and preloads the same against the housing (18). |
