Abstract:
A hydraulically damped bearing, comprising in combination:(a) a first anchoring member and a second anchoring member that are arranged in a movable fashion to one another, (b) a spring element operating between the first and second anchoring members, (c) an operating chamber filled with a damping fluid and a compensation chamber separate from the operating chamber and connected to it via a channel that is defined by channel walls and that allows the fluid to pass through, wherein the volume of the operating chamber changes due to the relative movement of the first and second anchoring members, such that the damping fluid is moved in the channel between the compensation chamber and the operating chamber, (d) a separating wall, disposed between the operating chamber and the compensation chamber, which is impacted on both sides by the damping fluid, (e) a separating object that holds said separating wall in position at the second anchoring member, the separating object including at least a first and a second separating object element which are adjacent in an axial bearing direction, and which form a first radial inner section of the channel wall, and (f) a housing section disposed on the second anchoring member forming a radially outer section of the channel wall, wherein the second separating object element is held in position in the axial bearing direction by a seat that is formed on the second anchoring member and by a connecting section of the second anchoring member, wherein the second separating object element is delimited in the radial bearing direction by the housing section that at least partially surrounds the separating object, and wherein the first separating object element is braced against the second separating object element by a tapered region of the housing section.
