a sleeve that surrounds the core and a spring element that is arranged between the core and the sleeve wherein on at least one face of the bushing there is a sealing element that seals the spring element vis u00e0 vis the environment application_number US 45618309 A description fig1 shows a bushing 1 configured here as an elastomeric articulated joint for use in general mechanical engineering in drive technology or in automotive technology such articulated joints serve as bushings for collapsible booths housing covers levers linkages motor rockers oscillating screens or vibrating tables the bushing 1 consists of a core 2 a sleeve 3 that surrounds the core 2 and a spring element 4 that is arranged between the core 2 and the sleeve 3 in this embodiment the spring element 4 in its non load state has a smaller axial extension and a larger radial extension than after its installation between the core 2 and the sleeve 3 as a result the spring element 4 is strongly compressed in the radial direction and is thus particularly stiff in the radial direction with a concurrently reduced stiffness in the axial direction as well as in the rotational direction owing to the high bias of the spring element 4 it is not necessary to connect the spring element 4 to the core 2 or to the sleeve 3 by a bonded joint a sealing element 6 that seals the sealing.
