ABSTRACT:
Ball units for conveyor systems are known in which a load-bearing ball is seated in an essentially radially symmetric bearing unit having ball bearings in a bearing shell. The load-bearing ball is held in the bearing unit by a securing apparatus. The bearing unit has a supporting structure that enables the bearing unit to be fixed in an opening of a carrier plate in such a way that it can support a load. Detents are provided to lock the unit in the opening against the load direction. It is suggested that the bearing shell should be constructed integrally with the supporting structure as a semielastic formed element.
