Abstract

An absorber for a connecting component including a head with two faces parallel to each other is traversed by a bore forming a housing for a ball-joint including a cage. The absorber includes two elements in the form of discs, parallel to each other, each with a central opening sufficiently wide so as not to cover the portions of the ball-joint protruding in relation to the head and a connector configured to connect the two elements at their periphery.
