摘要 |
A ball and socket joint for heavily loaded joint linkages in motor vehicles, comprises a ball stud with a spherical head, a socket embracing the spherical head and made of a material with limited elasticity, and a casing accommodating the socket and sealingly closed, on its side opposite to the ball stud, with a cambered cover of sheet metal. The cover applies by its inside and under biasing load against the deformable socket. In its portion contacting the socket, the cover is formed with a camber producing the effect that if the joint is loaded axially increasingly from the ball stud, the cover expands and becomes more tightly clamped in the casing. |
