Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A spring strut bearing with a cap and with a guide ring which is mounted in a rotatable manner relative to the cap about a rotational axis (D), an axial bearing being arranged between the cap and the guide ring. The cap has a seal, and the cap is connected to the guide ring at an inner diameter of the cap by a snap-in connection. The cap has a first element of the snap-in connection, and the guide ring has a second element of the snap-in connection, said elements engaging into each other in a formfitting manner. The first element is designed as a two-component part, the soft component of which engages into the second element in a formfitting manner and the hard component of which forms a reinforcement of the soft component.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
1 . A spring strut bearing comprising: a cap, a guide ring supported for rotation about a rotational axis (D) relative to the cap, an axial bearing between the cap and the guide ring a seal on the cap and the cap is connected to the guide ring on an inner diameter of the cap by a snap-in connection, the cap including a first element of the snap-in connection and the guide ring including a second element of the snap-in connection, which engage in each other with a positive-fit connection, the first element is constructed as a two-component part having a soft component that engages with a positive-fit connection in the second element and a hard component that forms a reinforcement of the soft component. 2 . The spring strut bearing according to claim 1 , wherein the hard component is provided on an inner diameter of the soft component. 3 . The spring strut bearing according to claim 1 , wherein the hard component has a segmented design. 4 . The spring strut bearing according to claim 1 , wherein the hard component extends over an entire inner diameter of the soft component. 5 . The spring strut bearing according to claim 1 , wherein the hard component is a polyamide. 6 . The spring strut bearing according to claim 1 , wherein the first element is constructed as a snap-on rim. 7 . The spring strut bearing according to claim 1 , wherein the seal has a sealing element that forms a rubbing contact on the guide ring.
