Abstract

A retaining device having an elastic annular collar as a retainer for mounting a vibrating part to obtain, in a constructionally simple manner, good outward encapsulation, for fitting it into a soft part. The retaining device is a retaining ring which surrounds the vibrating part at a radial distance and has longitudinal slots which are distributed around the circumference and run in the circumferential direction. Pins are provided adjacent to and perpendicular to the slots, on which the elastic annular collar is mounted, such that the elastic annular collar does not come into contact with the retaining ring.
