Patent ID: 7635117

Claim:
A bush bearing, with a radial stiffness that changes in the circumferential direction, comprising: an inner element having a metal inner sleeve, a bearing core, and an annular elastomer contour interposed disposed between the inner sleeve and the bearing core, wherein the elastomer contour is vulcanized only on an inner surface of the inner sleeve, and an elastomer bearing body that surrounds the inner element at least along sections and which is adapted to be received in an outer sleeve or in a receiving opening, with at least one radial web with a high radial stiffness and at least one pocket with a smaller radial stiffness than that of the radial web, wherein elements made of metal or plastic are incorporated in the bearing body in a region of the radial web and arranged on outer radial surfaces of the bearing body so as to form a radial layer sequence with the elastomer, wherein the bearing core is oversized with respect to an inner diameter of the elastomer contour and non-adherently contacts the elastomer contour along its entire circumference, wherein the inner element has a longitudinal axis; and an outer surface of the inner sleeve radially outward relative to the longitudinal axis is only partially enclosed by the radial web, leaving a remaining portion of the outer surface of the inner sleeve exposed.
