ABSTRACT:
A structure is provided to retain in an axial direction a support bearing inserted into a receiving lug of a vehicle part. Such support bearings have a rubber bush which projects with its endpieces out of the receiving lug, possesses a bearing core and is supported on one side of the receiving lug by means of a flange of a sheet-metal casing. An annular-bead-like bush endpiece facing away from the flange engages over an edge on the other side of the receiving lug. The retention structure can be in the form of a circumferential groove in the annular-bead-like bush endpiece, into which, after the support bearing has been introduced into the receiving lug, a spring ring can be inserted a spring ring which, in the inwardly spread state, has a diameter larger than the inside diameter of the receiving lug. The spring ring thus prevents axial shifting of the support bearing in a direction in which the bead-like bush endpiece would be drawn into the receiving lug.
