A bearing structure component for a vehicle bearing, having at least one through-opening for receiving a connecting element or a bearing which is made of foamed synthetic material, and the foamed synthetic material forms an integral foam structure. In an embodiment, at least one first local section of the integral foam structure has a wall thickness of greater than 4 mm.

A suspension thrust bearing device for use with a suspension spring in an automotive suspension strut of a vehicle. The device includes an upper annular bearing member and a lower annular bearing member in relative rotation. The lower annular bearing member having a body provided with an embedded stiffening insert. The device further provides a damping element made of resilient material and interposed between the lower annular bearing member and the suspension spring. A radial flange of the damping element prevents separation from the lower side of the radial flange of the lower cap.

A high-pressure gas spring for vehicle suspension systems includes an integral gas damping system and an integral counter spring to reduce spring residual force at suspension rebound. The gas spring includes an inverted piston feature that reduces the overall length of the device. Additionally, there are other innovative features incorporated in the gas spring to improve performance, reduce cost and minimise weight.

A bumper cap for a damper, the damper including an outer tube with a tube end. A rod extending through the tube end. The damper including a damping fluid, such as a hydraulic oil, that is movable within the damper in response to movement of the rod to provide a damping effect. The bumper cap has a cup shaped body having a side wall and a base, the side wall having an inner surface and an outer surface, the inner surface having a dimension that is sized to be press fit over the outer tube. The base of the bumper cap has a through hole in the base, the through hole configured to have the rod pass therethrough. The base has at least one fluid passage extending away from the through hole that is in fluid communication with a fluid reservoir in the side wall.

A suspension shock absorber for remote control (RC) cars includes an inner tube and an outer tube coaxial with each other. The hollow area inside the inner tube defines a hollow chamber where a piston and a piston rod slidably moves. A shock cap seals the top of the inner tube and the outer tube. The space between the coaxial inner tube and outer tube is used as an inter-tube bypass route through which bypass oil flows. The shock cap has a bypass passage connecting the inter-tube bypass route with the upper portion of the hollow chamber. A bypass valve in line with the co-axis of the inner tube and the outer tube is disposed on top of the shock cap and used to regulate the amount of oil flow through the bypass passage.

A multipoint link for an undercarriage of a vehicle, having a core element formed from a foamed material and at least one roving of bundled continuous filaments wound around the core element, the at least one roving winding around the core element in at least one layer forming an outer layer of the multipoint link. The recesses serving to guide the at least one roving to be laid by winding are incorporated in the surface of the core element.

The present disclosure provides a transverse link for a wheel suspension of a vehicle that includes at least one wheel-side attachment structure and at least one structure-side attachment structure. The wheel-side and structure-side structures are connected to each other by a connection structure which extends therebetween. The connection structure and/or at least one of the attachment structures is/are produced by a generative production method. At least one of the attachment structures is constructed as a generatively produced bushing which has an inner sleeve and an outer sleeve surrounding the inner sleeve. The sleeves are connected to each other by a fold-like structure. The present disclosure further provides a method for producing such a transverse link.
