Abstract

A transmission includes a housing, having lower and upper housing parts, and having bearing seats. A web is formed on the lower housing part between two bearing seats in each case, which is pressed against a web provided on the upper housing part and between the respective bearing seats. The housing parts have an elastic distortion or deformation such that when the two housing parts are separated or pulled apart, or in other words, in an elastic relaxation, in particular, a first web of the webs of a first of the two housing parts projects beyond a planar surface, in particular beyond a separating surface, which restricts the other webs of the first housing part, or the webs of one of the housing parts is restricted by a planar separating surface, and with the exception of a first web, the webs of the other housing part are also restricted by the planar separating surface and the first web projects beyond the separating surface when the housing parts are separated from each other so that in order to form the housing of interconnected housing parts, at least one of the housing parts is elastically deformed and/or preloaded.
