Abstract
A shaft bearing for supporting a shaft of a motor vehicle includes an inner sleeve, an outer body surrounding the inner sleeve while forming a gap, and an elastomer body elastically connecting the inner sleeve and the outer body. The inner sleeve may have a first rolling surface facing towards the elastomer body and against which a first rolling section of the elastomer body abuts. The outer body may have a second rolling surface facing towards the elastomer body and against which a second rolling section of the elastomer body abuts. The two rolling sections may be connected to each other via a fold having a free length. During movement of the inner sleeve relative to the elastomer body and/or the outer body relative to the inner sleeve, the rolling sections may roll the same distance on the rolling surfaces, so that the free length of the fold remains unchanged.
