A rotary joint includes a socket rod having a socket rod flange with a basically spheroid con-cave bearing surface at a first end, a housing nut encircling the socket rod and having a threaded wrenching head, a ball rod having a basically spheroid convex bearing surface and threaded side walls around the convex bearing surface, and a joint actuator configured to actuate relative movement of the socket rod flange and the ball rod. A diameter of the threaded side walls of the ball rod corresponds to a diameter of the threaded wrenching head of the housing nut.

A rotary joint includes a socket rod having a socket rod flange with a basically spheroid concave bearing surface at a first end, a housing nut encircling the socket rod and having a threaded wrenching head, and a ball rod having a basically spheroid convex bearing surface and threaded side walls around the bearing surface. A diameter of the threaded side walls of the ball rod corresponds to a diameter of the threaded wrenching head of the housing nut. First guiding tracks are on the concave bearing surface oriented into a first swivelling direction, the socket rod being swivable to the ball rod along the first guiding tracks into the first swivelling direction. Second guiding tracks are on the convex bearing surface and oriented into a second swivelling direction, the socket rod being swivellable to the ball rod along the second guiding tracks into the second swivelling direction.
