  • Patent number: 7017892
    Abstract: A suspension strut including a piston rod extending from a cylinder, a connection bearing for connecting the piston rod to a vehicle body, a spring loading the cylinder away from the connection bearing, and a spring plate supporting the spring axially with respect to the connection bearing. A first bearing enables relative rotational movement between the spring plate and the connection bearing, and a second bearing enables relative rotational movement between the connection bearing and a stop buffer arranged between the connection bearing and the cylinder.

  • Publication number: 20040135301
    Abstract: Bearing for a piston rod of a piston-cylinder unit, including a bearing body mounting on the piston rod side and a counter-bearing of a component to be carried by the piston rod. The counter-bearing is designed as a bearing flange, the top and bottom side of which are fitted with respective bearing bodies in the form of slide bearings. The bearing body mounting supports the counter-bearing axially on both sides and the two bearing bodies are preloaded by a spring towards the bearing body mounting.

  • Publication number: 20030047399
    Abstract: Suspension strut comprising a cylinder and a spring perch which is axially displaceable relative to the cylinder for adjustment of the position, wherein the spring perch has a sleeve portion by which the connection to the cylinder is carried out. A chamber is arranged on the cylinder side which is at least partly filled with a moldable material. The sleeve portion contacts the moldable material, which in a solid state transmits a supporting force from the cylinder to the spring perch.
