A spindle nut for a ball screw is provided, having a continuous ball track ( 1 ) for balls ( 2 ), a ball groove ( 3,14 ) for the balls ( 2 ) extending on an inner periphery of the spindle nut about the rotational axis thereof and along a helical line, the ball groove extending across at least one thread ( 4 ), and a diversion device ( 5 ), in order to divert with its diverting channel ( 9 ) balls ( 2 ) from one end of the thread ( 4 ) to the beginning of the thread ( 4 ). The spindle nut is provided with ball inlets ( 13, 16 ), on the one side connected to the ball groove ( 3, 14 ) and, on the other side connected to the diverting channel ( 9 ), with the ball groove ( 3, 14 ) and the ball inlet ( 13, 16 ) both having identical cross-sectional profiles. |
