Abstract

In an adjusting device having a gear, high gear ratios are often demanded. High transverse forces often arise in the gear and must be intercepted by suitably dimensioned bearings. In the adjusting device proposed here, having a basic body and a cap, an embedded device is provided between a shaft, serving to support a gear wheel, and the cap. With the aid of the embedded device, good bearing of the gear wheel on both sides is attained, regardless of component tolerances. The adjusting device is intended especially for vehicles having an internal combustion engine.
