The invention concerns a combination bearing, consisting of a bearing carrier (2) having an eye-shaped recess (3) and a bush bearing (1) designed for press-fit insertion into the eye-shaped recess (3). According to a preferred embodiment, the bush bearing (1) is configured without outer reinforcement for direct installation in the eye-shaped recess (3). In order to avoid a slipping of the bush bearing (1) that is press-fitted into the eye-shaped recess (3) and the noises connected therewith, it is proposed to provide the inner surface of the eye-shaped recess (3) in one or several of the areas adjacent to the outer contour (6) of the bush bearing (1) formed by the elastomeric bearing body (5) or an outer sleeve that may be present, if applicable, with a profiling (7) running in peripheral direction (u), so that the eye-shaped recess (3) within each area provided with a profiling (7) has an inner diameter (di, di′) that alternatively increases or decreases multiple times. The outer contour (6) of the bush bearing is furthermore provided with a corresponding profiling.
