Abstract
The present invention relates to a bushing, preferably a hydraulic bushing, having an inner part, an outer part, at least one supporting spring which connects the inner part and the outer part radially to one another, and at least one stop element which is arranged between the inner part and the outer part, is connected to the inner part or the outer part, and is embodied in such a way that the stop element can limit the radial spring travel (D) between the inner part and the outer part in a predetermined fashion. The bushing is characterized in that the stop element is elastically connected to the inner part or to the outer part in such a way that the stop element can be elastically twisted relative to the inner part or relative to the outer part.

A bushing comprising:
- an inner part;
- an outer part;
- a supporting spring radially connecting said inner part and said outer part to each other;
- a stop element arranged between said inner part and said outer part;
- said stop element being connected to said inner part or to said outer part and being configured so as to cause said stop element to limit the radial spring travel (D) between said inner part and said outer part in a predetermined manner;
- and,
- said stop element being elastically connected to one of said parts so as to permit said stop element to elastically twist relative to the other one of said parts.
