| 20090103848 | SUPPORT BEARING FOR A VEHICLE - A support bearing for a vehicle is provided that includes, but is not limited to a rubber bearing that encloses one end of a strut element and introduces the lateral and longitudinal forces of the strut into a vehicle body. A ball bearing allows rotational movements between a spring element and the car body. For this purpose, the ball bearing of the support bearing is supported on the car body with a ball bearing race that features a first ball track. A second ball track of the ball bearing is arranged on a rubber bearing housing together with one end of the spring element. | 04-23-2009 |
| 20110031712 | REAR AXLE OF TYPE TWIST BEAM AXLE FOR MOTOR VEHICLE - A twist beam axle is provided for a motor vehicle, with two rigid trailing arms for the mounting of wheel carriers, each of which can be articulated on a vehicle body through a bearing bush. The trailing arms are connected with each other through a flexurally rigid, but at least in sections, torsionally elastic, antiroll bar and through a Watt's linkage. In the twist beam axle, center axes of the bearing bushes are each arranged parallel to the vehicle vertical axis. In addition, the invention extends to a motor vehicle equipped with such a rear axle. | 02-10-2011 |
| 20110127744 | DAMPING BUSHING FOR TORSION-BEAM REAR AXLE OF A MOTOR VEHICLE - A damping bushing is provided for an axle bearing of a trailing arm of a torsion-beam rear axle for a motor vehicle, in particular for an automobile, which includes, but is not limited to a bushing outer sleeve, a bushing inner sleeve, and a damping body. The interposed damping body is disposed coaxially to the bushing outer sleeve and to the bushing inner sleeve between these two elements. The bushing inner sleeve forms a radially outwardly extending spherical surface and the damping bushing has at least one further element that abuts extensively against the spherical surface formed by the bushing inner sleeve. Furthermore, a torsion-beam axle is provided that is fitted with these bushings. | 06-02-2011 |
