Abstract: A plunger piston system used, for example, to support and guide a pneumatic spring bellows of an air suspension axle of a commercial vehicle or the like, includes a plunger piston that has a cylindrical plunger piston skirt with a bottom foot region for connection with an air spring bearing arm and an upper plunger piston edge that adjoins the plunger piston edge that adjoins the plunger piston skirt. A trough section which extends radially inward from the edge has a trough base with an opening for the passage of a bolt for a force-fit connection with a base of the air spring bellows. The trough section defines a trough to accommodate a convex base of the air spring bellows. A supporting body fits in an inner space of the plunger piston is surrounded by the skirt thereof. A lower foot area of the supporting body rests on the lower foot area of the plunger piston. The plunger piston and the supporting body may be of plastic.

Abstract: The invention relates to a plunger piston system made preferably of glass fiber-reinforced plastic or similar composite material to support and guide the pneumatic spring bellows of an air suspension axle of a commercial vehicle or the like, with a plunger piston, which has an essentially cylindrical plunger piston skirt with a bottom foot region for the connection with an air spring bearing arm and an upper, preferably essentially semi-circular plunger piston edge, which adjoins the plunger piston skirt and which transforms preferably at an angle from the outside inwardly into a trough section that is equipped with a preferably, in any event region by region, essentially level trough base, having an opening for the passage of a bolt for a friction lock connection with a base of the air spring bellows, and that preferably forms a truncated conical trough for preferably form-locked reception of the convex base of the air spring bellow, whereby to simplify the production and yet improve the stability a supporti
