Abstract

A combined radial and axial bearing is defined by the fact that the bearing ring (1) of the radial bearing is held at an axial end by a mounting bore in the runner plate (2) of the axial bearing, and the positively locking engagement is brought about by means of a ring (3) which is arranged between the bearing ring (1) and runner plate and is configured in such a way that the bearing ring (1) and runner plates (2) are prevented from rotating with respect to one another in the circumferential direction but limited axial displacement is possible.
