Abstract
The ball-and-socket joint is particularly for use in a vehicle windscreen wiper linkage, having a spherical male portion fitting inside a mating female one consisting of two half-shells. The half-shells (3) are independent of the two components pivoting together, and are mechanically held together round the male portion (2), typically by means of a clamping stirrup (7). Alternatively, one of the components can be shaped to accommodate them, after they have been fitted round the male portion. The half-shells can be identical, joining along a diametral plane of the sphere which they accommodate. Each of them can have a positioning lug, engaging with a part of the component on which it is mounted.
