Zusammenfassung:A convoluted boot assembly particularly suited for sealing a sideshaft connected to a constant velocity joint and arranged at the axle drive of a motor vehicle, relative to the housing of the axle drive. The convoluted boot assembly includes a convoluted boot (21) which includes a first collar (22) to be secured relative to the shaft (41), a second collar (23) to be connected to the housing (51) and a boot region (24) which connects the two collars (22, 23) and serves to offset the angular movements of the shaft. The assembly also includes a protective cap (31) which is secured to the first collar (22) and which encloses the boot region (24) of the convoluted boot (21) at least substantially in the direction pointing to the second collar (23), and a bearing assembly (11) for supporting the convoluted boot (21) on the shaft (41), as well as a seal (16) for sealing the first collar (22) relative to the shaft (41).
