Abstract:
A pump unit (25), in particular for traction-controlled hydraulic vehicle brake systems, comprising a radial piston pump (26) having at least one pump piston (47) in a pump block (27), a drive motor (29) mounted on the pump block (27), a shaft (30) driven by the drive motor (29) and supported by a roller bearing (33) having an inner race (38) and carrying, immediately adjacent to the inner race of the roller bearing (33), a needle bearing (10), the needle bearing having an inner race (11) embodied as an eccentric sleeve and an outer race (12) in the form of a needle bush as well as needles (14) between the inner race (11) and the outer race (12), the outer race (12) of the needle bearing being provided on each of its two face ends with radially inward-oriented rims (17, 18), of which only one rim (18), to secure the axial position of needles (14) and the outer race (12), fits over one end face (19) of the inner race (11) of the needle bearing and engages with the inner race (38) of the roller bearing (33), while the pump piston (47) of the radial piston pump (26) engages a jacket of the outer race (12) of the needle bearing (10), the inner race (11) of the needle bearing (10) and the inner race (38) of the roller bearing (33) being pressed onto the shaft (30) and the one rim (18) of the outer race (12) of the needle bearing (10) intended for engagement with the inner race (38) of the roller bearing (33) extends radially into a gap between the inner races (11, 38) of the needle bearing (10) and roller bearing (33).
