Abstract
The method for manufacturing a torsion bar shoulder bearing has four method steps: (1) the manufacture of a elastomeric spring as a not fully vulcanized molding for receiving a sleeve-shaped or bolt-shaped inner connecting part in a central bore and an outer sleeve-shaped connecting element; (2) the pretreatment of the surface regions, to be connected to the molding, of the connecting parts by means of an adhesive system; (3) the pushing of the molding onto the inner connecting part and the insertion of the molding thus reinforced into the outer connecting part (or in the opposite sequence), as a result of which the elastomeric molding is clamped under moderate prestress between the two connecting parts, and (4) the concluding full vulcanization of the elastomeric molding in the assembled bearing, using a tempering furnace, at temperatures of below 140 to 150° C.
