In an elastic insertion bearing for supporting a component extending substantially axially, such as a damper rod for a strut tower on a vehicle body and for fitting in a vehicle body-side mount (3), comprising a rigid core to which the component can be secured, and an elastomeric body (17, 117) radially surrounding the core, it is provided for that at least two of the outer shell sections (19, 21, 119, 121) radially surrounding the elastomeric body (17, 117) are provided circumferentially spaced away from each other in the unfitted condition and which on being fitted can move each radially on the other such that the circumferential spacing is reduced in precompression of the elastomeric body (17, 117).
An internal vibration absorber, configured to be installed in hollow shafts, includes a central absorber mass, a rigid outer shell coaxially surrounding the absorber mass, and an elastomeric spring element interconnecting the central mass and the outer shell in an elastic/resilient manner. The elastomeric spring element includes circumferentially spaced resilient radial spacers, which are functionally independent from one another. The radial spacers may extend axially along the entire length of the absorber mass, or the spacers may engage the absorber mass at axially spaced apart locations. All spacers engage axially the central absorber mass at such a distance apart that an appreciable wobbling of the absorber mass within the shell is impossible even when the absorber mass is in soft resilient suspension.
Elastic coupling component part for connecting two component parts that are exposed to oscillations and/or vibrations during operation, in particular of a motor vehicle, preferably for forming connection between a steering wheel skeleton and a damper element. The coupling component part is comprised of an elastic body and of a mechanical fastening device that is to be allocated respectively to each component part and that is securely connected to the body.
