Abstract
An elastic sliding bearing for vehicle parts in motor vehicles, a rigid inner bushing (1) rotatably arranged in an outer bushing (2), and this is arranged in an elastomeric body (3) firmly adhering to the outer bushing. Both bushings have, at least at an axially outer end, axial bearing surfaces (8, 9) at one radially directed flange projection (7, 10) each. The flange projection (10) associated with the outer bushing is axially movably arranged in relation to this outer bushing (2) while an elastomeric intermediate member (11) undergoes elastic deformation.
Claims6
An elastic sliding bearing for vehicle parts in motor vehicles, comprising:
- an inner bushing having an axially outer end with a radially directed inner bushing flange projection;
- an outer bushing arranged in an elastomeric body, said elastomeric body firmly adhering to said outer bushing, said outer bushing having a radially directed outer bushing flange projection providing an axial bearing surface at an axially outer end, said inner bushing being rotatably arranged in said outer bushing;
- a mounting bushing, said elastomeric body being non-rotatably inserted into said mounting bushing, said mounting bushing being axially movably connected to said outer bushing flange projection by an elastomeric intermediate member, said elastomeric intermediate member providing a cross-section, in the axial direction, by which restoring forces are built up in an elastomeric material of said elastomeric intermediate member, said restoring forces increasing with increasing axial displacement of said inner bushing in relation to the outer bushing.
