The support component(19) against which the membrane(15) of the damper is pressed has a cylindrical shape. One end of the support component has a preferably cup-shaped recess(28) and on its circumference a trough-form recess(26) with a continuously decreasing and increasing curve in relation to the generated surface. The membrane is made of an elastomer and protrudes into the cup-shaped recess, acting as a rolling membrane. An Independent claim is included for a support component for a membrane damper which is produced by a forming process, and preferably by deep-drawing. Die Erfindung betrifft einen Membrandämpfer (10), insbesondere für geregelte Bremsanlagen. Die Erfindung ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß der Membrandämpfer (10) zwei Funktionsbereiche (34, 35) aufweist, vorzugsweise einen Druckmittel abgebenden (35) und einen Schwingungen dämpfenden Bereich (34).
