Ball-and-socket joint for use in automobile engineering, has sealing bellows comprising part accommodated in duct of race ring that is firmly attached on pivot pin, where projection of bellows projects over flange turned toward lever lug

摘要

The joint has a joint ball lying in a universal joint housing in a rotationally movable manner. Sealing bellows (3) are attached at the housing, and with a portion (3') formed at an end turned away from the housing and accommodated in an annular duct (4') of a race ring (4). The race ring is limited by annular flanges (7, 8) that are respectively turned toward the housing and a lever lug. The race ring is firmly attached on a pivot pin, and the bellows with a projection (9) limited at the portion and projecting over the flange turned toward the lever lug in an axial direction. The projection is formed as sealing lips.
