Abstract
The invention in directed to a bearing to damp oscillatory masses and includes a rubber-elastic support body, a receiving device mounted at and/or in the support device and connecting the bearing to the oscillatory mass, and a housing frictionally bracing the support body against a mount. The support body is fitted in such manner with at least one clearance extending substantially in the axial direction of the support body that when the bearing is loaded statically, the outer walls of the clearance are mutually apart.
Claims8
A bearing for damping oscillatory masses, comprising:
- a rubber-elastic support body (2) including an outer surface;
- a receiving device (3) mounted to the support body (2) to connect the bearing to the oscillatory mass;
- and
- a housing (11) bracing the bearing body in frictionally locking manner to a mount;
- wherein the support body (2) includes at least one cavity defined by at least one outer wall, wherein the wall extends substantially in an axial direction of the support body such that when the bearing is loaded statically, the outer wall(s) of the clearance remain mutually apart.
