Abstract
The invention relates to a flexible, force-transmitting element, especially a resilient element for transmitting compression and tensile forces between two relatively movable components, especially between an axle and the end of a bogie pivot beam pivotally supported in a vehicle frame. The element comprises two end plates which are essentially parallel when the element is unloaded, a cylindrical, preferably solid, rubber body disposed between the end plates, and a mechanical connecting means which permits limited relative movement between the end plates. According to the invention, the connecting means comprises a link element disposed in the rubber body, said link element being movably mounted at both ends in a holder element fixed in the respective end plate.
