Ball-joint housing support, corresponding connecting rod and corresponding joining method

A support for a ball-joint housing for a connecting rod of a wiper actuating linkage system, the support comprising:

• a ball-joint housing extending along a longitudinal axis (B) and configured to be received in a complementary orifice on the connecting rod;
• the support is configured to be assembled by rotation with the connecting rod, including:
• at least one rotational-guidance element guiding the rotation of the connecting rod about the longitudinal axis (B) of the ball-joint housing into a final assembly position,
• at least one retaining element configured to collaborate with the connecting rod and keep the connecting rod in the final assembly position in assembly with the support of the ball-joint housing;
• a receptacle having a first side and a second side opposing one another along a bottom wall, wherein the first side is separated from the bottom wall and forms a slot, where a free end forms into a leg that exhibits a guide ramp, where the leg is configured to provide flexibility of the support, the leg delimiting the first side of the receptacle away from a part of the receptacle, in a transverse direction relative to the longitudinal axis (B) of the ball-joint housing;
• and
• at least one rotation-blocking element with the guide ramp formed on the free end of a leg portion of the support that is configured to prevent the connecting rod from rotating out of the final assembly position.
