Ball and socket joint

摘要

A joint housing is provided. A pivot pin (1) includes a spherical surface (3) and a pivot part (2) and which is mounted with the spherical surface rotatably and deflectably in the joint housing (5). An elastic sealing bellows (8) surrounds the joint housing (5) or the pivot part (2) at least in a partial area. A static sealing seat (10) is formed between the pivot part (2) or the joint housing (5) and the sealing bellows (8) in this partial area. The sealing bellows (8) is fixed in the area of the sealing seat (10) by a nondetachable connection in substance, such as bonding or vulcanization. Optimal sealing of the static sealing between the pivot part/joint housing and the sealing bellows can be guaranteed by the embodiment according to the present invention.
