Flexible wheel bearing for use in twist-beam rear axle of motor vehicle, has bearing mounting flange designed such that outer ring is pivotable around rotational axis with respect to bearing mounting flange

摘要

The bearing (1) has a bearing mounting flange (16) provided at an outer ring (2) for mounting an anti-friction bearing at a vehicle, where the outer ring is connected with the bearing mounting flange by a connection section (15). The bearing mounting flange is designed such that the outer ring is pivotable around a rotational axis with respect to the bearing mounting flange, where the rotational axis is arranged in forward direction of rotation of a wheel. A support plane of the wheel passes behind a wheel rebellion line. An independent claim is also included for a twist-beam rear axle comprising two rigid trailing links.
