ABSTRACT:
A universal or ball pivot-link chain arrangement has chain link elements subdivided in an axial plane, each chain link element has a ball pivot body provided with an undercut portion of substantially hemispherical shape. A ball socket enclosing the ball pivot body of an adjacent link has a ring connection at the region of said undercut portion of the adjacent link. Each ring connection has ring-shaped braces engaging countersurfaces of the ball socket. These braces are effective not only in the radial direction, but are arranged to act as blocking devices against any relative displacement of the two halves of the chain link elements in the axial direction.
