Abstract

A plain bearing of a shaft, in particular of an electric-motor drive unit of a motor vehicle, contains a first plain bearing part that surrounds the shaft and a second plain bearing part connected axially to the first plain bearing part. The thermal expansion coefficient of the second plain bearing part is greater than the thermal expansion coefficient of the first plain bearing part.
