Abstract: The fastening element connects two parts in a chassis of a vehicle. The fastening element has a central axle on which two opposing paired support elements of damping material are arranged at an axial distance from one another. In order to achieve an improved performance at least one of the support elements is composed of two different components and/or of different material.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device comprising at least a first (1) and a second (2) machine part, wherein the machine parts (1, 2) are movable, especially pivotable, relatively to another, wherein a sealing boot (3) is arranged for sealing the first machine part (1) against the second machine part (2), wherein the sealing boot (3) has a first ring groove (4), in which a first spring element (5) is inserted, by which spring element (5) the sealing boot (3) is pressed against the first machine part (1) in the region of the first ring groove (4), and/or wherein the sealing boot (3) has a second ring groove (6), in which a second spring element (7) is inserted, by which spring element (7) the sealing boot (3) is pressed against the second machine part (2) in the region of the second ring groove (6).

Abstract: The invention relates to a fastening element (1), in particular for connecting two parts (2, 3) in a chassis, which fastening element has a central axle (4) on which at least two support elements (5, 6, 7, 8) of damping material are arranged at an axial distance from one another. In order to achieve an improved performance of the vehicle which has the chassis, the invention provides that at least one of the support elements (5, 6, 7, 8) is composed of at least two different components (9, 10) and/or of different materials.
