Abstract

An axial-radial rolling bearing comprising a first row of rolling elements which, for the absorption of axial forces are arranged between plane-parallel raceways of two race discs and a second row of rolling elements which, for the absorption of radial forces are arranged between flanges extending essentially axially and formed at adjacent peripheral edges of the race discs, characterized in that the flanges extend in different axial directions and overlap each other over at least a part of their length, the two rows of rolling elements being arranged radially one above the other substantially in one plane.
