Abstract
A ball joint holder with limiting element includes a lower base, an upper base covered to the lower base, a ball shaft and a limiting element. The ball shaft has a rotation rod, and a ball body located around a lower end of the rotation rod. A lower end of the rotation rod protrudes outward to form a limiting block. Two opposite ends of the limiting element are pivotally connected with the lower base and the upper base. The limiting element opens a limiting groove. One of inner surfaces of a front wall and a rear wall of the limiting groove is defined as a limiting surface. The lower end of the rotation rod and the limiting block are received in the limiting groove. The limiting block is capable of abutting against the limiting surface.

A ball joint holder with a limiting element, comprising:
- a lower base opening a recess penetrating through a middle of a bottom surface of the lower base, and a lower assembling notch penetrating through a middle of a top surface of the lower base, the lower assembling notch being corresponding to and communicated with the recess;
- an upper base covered to the lower base, the upper base opening an upper assembling notch penetrating through a middle of a bottom surface of the upper base, the upper assembling notch being corresponding to the lower assembling notch, a top of the upper assembling notch extending upward to form a perforation;
- a ball shaft having a rotation rod extending up and down, and a ball body located around a lower end of the rotation rod, the lower end of the rotation rod protruding outward to form a limiting block, a lower end of the ball body being assembled in the lower assembling notch, the lower end of the rotation rod projecting into the recess, an upper end of the ball body being received in the upper assembling notch, an upper end of the rotation rod being received in the perforation and projecting beyond a top surface of the upper base;
- and
- a limiting element received in the recess, two opposite ends of the limiting element being pivotally connected with the lower base and the upper base, and the limiting element being capable of rotating forward and backward, the limiting element opening a limiting groove extending towards the two opposite ends of the limiting element, the limiting groove being corresponding to the lower assembling notch, one of inner surfaces of a front wall and a rear wall of the limiting groove being a plane and being defined as a limiting surface, the lower end of the rotation rod and the limiting block being received in the limiting groove, the limiting element being capable of rotating together with the ball shaft, the limiting block being capable of facing to and abutting against the limiting surface.
