Abstract

A cable insertion nozzle is provided of the type having a spherical seat formed by two female and male portions of a ball and socket joint, which is characterized in that in the inner peripheral surfaces of the female and male portions is formed a recess which has a rectangular shape in longitudinal cross section and a circular shape in transverse cross section when the axis of the female segment coincides with that of the male segment, and in the recess is floatably inserted a cylindrical member the end portions of which are provided with a collar section and whose inside diameter is substantially identical with the original inside diameter of the female and male segments, whereby no step is created in the inner face of the nozzle, thereby permitting smooth conveying of the cable and the like.
