Patent ID: 11927219

Abstract:
The invention relates to bearing assembly (10) comprising at least one first bearing element (12) and one second bearing element (14) which are connected together along a longitudinal axis (16) in a rotatable manner relative to each other, wherein the bearing assembly (10) comprises a brake device (18), which inhibits the rotation of the two bearing elements (12, 14) relative to each other by means of a frictional force produced by the brake device (18), and an adjustment device (22), by means of which the brake force which is applied during the rotation the two bearing elements (12, 14) relative to each other can be modified, wherein an adjustment device (22) comprises at least two wedge elements (28, 32), each of which has a wedge surface (34, 36) that rests against each other and which can be moved relative to each other in a sliding manner against each other in order to modify the brake force.
