Abstract
The elastic sliding bearing for chassis parts in motor vehicles includes of a rigid inner bushing (1) and an outer bushing (2) surrounded by an elastomeric body (3). Both bushings have axial bearing surfaces (5, 6) on radially directed flange projections (4, 7) at an axially outer end, wherein a seal (11) surrounding the axial bearing surfaces (5, 6). The seal acts against the axially outer flange surface with at least one sealing lip (12). A disk (9), which is supported on one side surface by the sliding surface of the flange projection (4) on the inner bushing (1), is loosely inserted between a sliding surface forming the axial bearing surface (5) on the flange projection (4) of the inner bushing (1) and the elastomeric body (3) surrounding the outer bushing (2). In addition, on the surface which is in contact with the disk (9) and forms the axial bearing surface (6), the elastomeric body (3) is provided with recesses ( 10), so that the axial rigidity of the elastomeric body (3) is reduced in the edge zone that is in contact with the disk (9).
