Abstract
The invention relates to a support arrangement for the yielding support of a shaft bearing, having a radial inner support ring, into which the shaft bearing can be installed, and having a bearing housing for fixing the support arrangement. The radial inner support ring is connected to the bearing housing via a connection structure such that the radial inner support ring can be deflected from an initial position relative to the bearing housing with respect to a central axis of the shaft bearing both in the axial and radial directions from a starting position. The deflection delimitation device delimits the axial deflection of the radial inner support ring relative to the hearing housing in the axial direction.
Claims7
A support arrangement adapted for the yielding support of a shaft bearing, the support arrangement comprising:
- a radial inner support ring,
- a bearing housing for fixing the support arrangement to a vehicle, wherein the radial inner support ring is connected with the bearing housing via a connecting structure in such a manner that the radial inner support ring is deflectable from an initial position relative to the bearing housing with respect to a central axis of the shaft bearing both in an axial direction and a radial direction, and
- stop portions protruding from the bearing housing toward the central axis on each side of the bearing housing, the stop portions spaced axially from and positioned axially outside of the connecting structure when the radial inner support ring is in the initial position, wherein the stop portions contact at least the connecting structure to limit an axial deflection of the radial inner support ring when the radial inner support ring is axially deflected, wherein the stop portions on each side of the bearing housing are circumferentially disposed and spaced equally apart,
- wherein at least one stop surface is formed on a connecting body of the connecting structure, the at least one stop surface positioned to contact the stop portions of the bearing housing when the radial inner support ring is axially deflected, and wherein the at least one stop surface of the connecting body may be configured as a complete circumferential surface.
