Abstract
In a motor-vehicle spring-strut support bearing for mounting a piston rod of the spring strut to a vehicle support element, the piston is mounted in the support element to a connecting element which is connected to the support element by an annular resilient spring element disposed between the connecting element and the support element and axial stops are provided including a spherically curved surface on the support element, which limit axial movement of the piston rod upon compression of the spring strut by a vehicle wheel in one direction and upon rebound of the wheel in the opposite direction, the arrangement providing a force-centering support of the spring strut piston rod on the spring strut support.
