A unit bearing assembly () with an elastomer bearing body () in a rigid bearing housing () with an opening ('). A supporting member () takes hold through the opening (&#x2032;), the supporting member braced on bearing body () and relative movements of the bearing body () with respect to the bearing housing () along three mutually orthogonal extension directions (X, Y, Z) of the bearing body (), on both sides of a neutral position of each relative movement, is limited by stops () arranged on the bearing housing (). For providing a unit bearing assembly () with a stable, robust, and dimensionally stable bearing housing (), and provides stops () for movements the bearing housing () is designed free of joints and is molded in one piece in a forming process for receiving the bearing body ().

Unit bearing assembly

A unit mount () for a motor vehicle is provided. The unit mount () includes a closed, one piece housing () with a housing opening () on each of two sides that lie opposite each other; an elastomeric bearing spring () that is accommodated in the housing (), and a support arm () that is secured within the housing () with at least one end protruding from one of the two housing openings (). For providing a cost-effective unit mount () with a simplified assembly, the elastomeric bearing spring () is inserted after the support arm () has been mounted.

Unit mount, in particular for a motor vehicle

The invention relates to a link element () for a motor vehicle, comprising a connecting rod () and a coupling element () for coupling the connecting rod () to a subassembly of the motor vehicle, wherein the coupling element () comprises a housing () with a passage () through which the connecting rod () extends into the housing (); characterized by a stop plate () for supporting forces transferred to the coupling element () by the connecting rod ().

Suspension link element

An axially damping elastomer bearing suitable for a motor vehicle, with a crucible-formed receptacle () for surrounding receiving an elastomeric support spring (). The crucible-formed receptacle () is manufactured through casting and can be demolded in a demolding direction () and has a peripheral wall () with at least one drainage opening (), wherein the at least one drainage opening () has a clearance () extending in the demolding direction ().
