Abstract
A bearing device for an axle comprises a housing arranged about a portion of the axle, a pair of bearings each having a predetermined clearance mounted between the housing and the axle for rotation of the axle with respect to the housing; two opposed offset pairs of corresponding steps, including a first step of each pair on the outer periphery of the axle, and a second step of each pair on the inner periphery of the housing for positioning the bearings on the axle in the axial direction; and a clamping device for securing the bearings against axial movement on the axle beyond the predetermined clearance.
