Abstract

A bearing cover for a split bearing arrangement includes a stiffening element between threaded bores for receiving threaded bolts in order to connect the bearing cover to a bearing block. Provided between two clamping surfaces is a first radially inner bearing support surface having an at least approximately arcuate cross-section as viewed in the axial direction. Adjoining the bearing support surface and following the cross-sectional contour of the bearing support surface, a reinforcing web is provided on the stiffening element which has a varying height as viewed perpendicular to the bearing support surface, and the tallest height is disposed in the region of the half angular span of the bearing support surface.
