Abstract

A bearing assembly for bearing a steering shaft includes a bearing housing, a bearing, and a damping disk. The housing has two housing sections. The bearing is integrated into the damping disk. The damping disk is positioned so that an inner wall of a first housing section radially supports a circumferential side of the damping disk, and such that a second housing section is axially supported by the damping disk.
