Abstract

A bearing cover (10) has a bearing receiving space (18) for a bearing (9) and has a fastening region (17) for fastening the bearing cover (10) to a housing body (7). The bearing receiving space (18) of the bearing cover (10) is decoupled electrically from the fastening region (17) of the bearing cover (10) to prevent an undesired flow of electric current across the bearing (9).
