Abstract

The invention relates to a telescopic pneumatic spring bellows (100) having an outer metal corrugated hose (111) and an inner metal corrugated hose (112), which are coupled by a connecting sleeve (120). In order to stabilise the movement, a guide element (161, 162) is provided which limits deviations of the movement of the inner and/or outer metal corrugated hose (111, 112) from the axial direction (X). The guide element can, for example, comprise spacer elements (161, 162) which are arranged between the connecting sleeve (120) on the one hand and the outer or inner metal corrugated hose on the other hand.

At least one damping element is arranged in the gap, with the damping element(s) constructed of a woven fabric made of a high-temperature-resistant material and having an outside surface with at least one bulge, wherein the bulge positively engages with a corrugation of the exterior hose. The exterior hose may be a membrane bellows. The woven fabric may be a metallic material. The at least one damping element covers, along the rotation axis, preferably a proportional length of at least 20% of the hollow-cylindrical gap and has preferably a static stiffness in the radial direction of less than 100 N/mm.
