Abstract

An oscillation damper that has a cup-shaped elastomer diaphragm body, with a bottom diaphragm. The diaphragm body is received tightly on an opening side in a bore of a housing, and fits around a protrusion of a closure body that closes the bore. Between the closure body and the diaphragm, a support body having an end face that is concave toward the diaphragm is received in the diaphragm body. A void formed between the diaphragm and the support body communicates with the atmosphere, through a conduit embodied on the support body and through an opening in the closure body. The oscillation damper can be used in hydraulic slip-controlled motor vehicle brake systems.
