Patent ID: 8544591

Claim:
Bearing device ( 1 ) for the vibrationally decoupled rotary mounting of an intermediate shaft ( 10 ) on an engine block ( 100 ) of a motor vehicle, comprising the following features: a. a radial bearing ( 20 ) comprising i. an inner ring ( 22 ) for accommodating the intermediate shaft ( 10 ), and ii. an outer ring ( 24 ), and b. a bearing housing ( 30 ), which is formed in two parts, and the outer ring ( 24 ) of the radial bearing ( 20 ) is fixed in a positive fit in the bearing housing ( 30 ), i. is provided 1. for attachment on the engine block ( 100 ) of the motor vehicle, and 2. for accommodating the radial bearing ( 20 ) in a non-rotatable manner, and ii. forms a mechanical interface for attaching the bearing housing ( 30 ) on the engine block ( 100 ) of the motor vehicle; c. wherein the bearing device ( 1 ) further comprises at least one rubber-elastic, damper member ( 40 ) provided to be disposed in a vibration-damping way between the bearing housing ( 30 ) and the engine block ( 100 ) when the bearing housing ( 30 ) is mounted on the engine block ( 100 ); and d. wherein the radial bearing ( 20 ) fixed in the bearing housing ( 30 ) executes a wobbling movement about two axes x, y; e. wherein the two axes x, y are oriented perpendicularly relative to the axis of rotation of the intermediate shaft ( 10 ); f. wherein the outer ring ( 24 ) and the bearing housing ( 30 ) are immediately adjacent to and abut one another.
