Abstract
The present invention discloses a synchronizing revolute joint with an external joint member, an internal joint member and rolling bearings arranged between the external joint member and the internal joint member. Each rolling bearing includes an inner race with a rolling bearing inner surface and an outer race with a rolling bearing outer surface. Between the inner race and the outer race there is arranged a plurality of rollers enabling the outer race to roll on the inner race. One of the inner race and the outer race includes an axial guide that determines the position of the rollers in relation to that race in the axial direction. The inner race and outer race are also axially displaceable against each other.
