Articulation device for flexibly connecting a first car body and a second car body of an articulated vehicle, comprising - a central bearing with a bearing portion and a support portion attachable to the first car body, - two base bearings, each with a bearing portion and a support portion, wherein the base bearings are each configured to be fastened to the second car body by means of the support portion in a first direction via a base arrangement with a base distance spaced apart from one another, and - two legs, each configured to generate a mechanical wishbone connection between the bearing portion of the central bearing and the bearing portions of the base bearings, characterised in that - at least one base bearing or the base bearings comprise flexible support means such that an internal stiffness of a base bearing in at least one leg direction of the leg associated with the base bearing is, at least in a quasi-linear stiffness range, at least 2 kN/mm, in particular at least 3 kN/mm, preferably at least 4 kN/mm and at most 7 kN/mm, in particular at most 6 kN/mm, preferably at most 5 kN/mm, - and/or wherein at least one base bearing or the base bearings comprise flexible support means, each arranged between the bearing portion and the support portion, in such a way, and a leg length of at least one leg or both legs is configured such that an internal stiffness of one base bearing in at least one leg direction of the leg associated with the base bearing is, at least in a quasi-linear stiffness range, at least 4 N/mm, in particular at least 6 N/mm, preferably 8 N/mm, per millimeter leg length, and at most 20 N/mm, in particular 18 N/mm, preferably 16 N/mm, per millimeter leg length, - wherein the bearing portion of at least one base bearing or the base bearings is firmly connected to a cam, wherein the cam has an oval shape in the horizontal direction, wherein the support portion of the at least one base bearing or the base bearings has a round stop, so that, due to the interaction of the round stop of the support portion and the oval cam of the bearing portion, a clearance in the transverse direction is greater than a clearance in the longitudinal direction. - a central bearing with a bearing portion and a support portion attachable to the first car body, - two base bearings, each with a bearing portion and a support portion, wherein the base bearings are each configured to be fastened to the second car body by means of the support portion in a first direction via a base arrangement with a base distance spaced apart from one another, and - two legs, each configured to generate a mechanical wishbone connection between the bearing portion of the central bearing and the bearing portions of the base bearings, characterised in that - at least one base bearing or the base bearings comprise flexible support means such that an internal stiffness of a base bearing in at least one leg direction of the leg associated with the base bearing is, at least in a quasi-linear stiffness range, at least 2 kN/mm, in particular at least 3 kN/mm, preferably at least 4 kN/mm and at most 7 kN/mm, in particular at most 6 kN/mm, preferably at most 5 kN/mm, - and/or wherein at least one base bearing or the base bearings comprise flexible support means, each arranged between the bearing portion and the support portion, in such a way, and a leg length of at least one leg or both legs is configured such that an internal stiffness of one base bearing in at least one leg direction of the leg associated with the base bearing is, at least in a quasi-linear stiffness range, at least 4 N/mm, in particular at least 6 N/mm, preferably 8 N/mm, per millimeter leg length, and at most 20 N/mm, in particular 18 N/mm, preferably 16 N/mm, per millimeter leg length, - wherein the bearing portion of at least one base bearing or the base bearings is firmly connected to a cam, wherein the cam has an oval shape in the horizontal direction, wherein the support portion of the at least one base bearing or the base bearings has a round stop, so that, due to the interaction of the round stop of the support portion and the oval cam of the bearing portion, a clearance in the transverse direction is greater than a clearance in the longitudinal direction.
