ABSTRACT:
A ball-joint has a hollow housing, and a ball in contact with a socket in the housing; and a locking device is disposed between the largest diameter of the ball and the device which supports the locking device, so that the ball is restrained from moving off the ball socket when the pin shaft is pulled in the direction away from the ball socket. A plurality of locking rings is produced by fabricating a resiliently deformable longitudinal rod, forming the rod into a helix, and cutting the helix parallel to the longitudinal axis.
