Joint housing for a ball joint and ball joint with such a joint housing

Abstract

The invention relates to a joint housing (1, 21, 25, 29, 30) for a ball joint and with an outer surface (5) of the joint housing (1, 21, 25, 29, 30), wherein a U-shaped receiving groove (6) for receiving an edge section of a sealing bellows is formed on the outer surface (5) of the joint housing (1, 21, 25, 29, 30), and the receiving groove (6) has a groove base (8), a first side surface (9) and a second side surface (10), wherein the two mutually facing side surfaces (9, 10) are spaced apart from each other by means of the groove base (8), and the first side surface (9) is provided as a section of a structural element (11).In order to secure the edge section of the sealing bellows to the joint housing (1, 21, 25, 29, 30) by means of a construction that is as simple and / or cost-effective as possible, the joint housing (1, 21, 25, 29, 30) is characterized in that the second side surface (10) is provided by means of an annular-shaped web (12) extending away from the outside (5) of the joint housing (1, 21, 25, 29, 30).
