Claim:
A rolling bearing arrangement, comprising: at least one angular contact rolling bearing arranged within a housing, the angular contact rolling bearing having a bearing ring with a raceway for a rolling element, the bearing ring having at least one moveable section that is axially moveable relative to the housing; at least one lash compensation element, which is supported axially in one direction on the housing and supported on the bearing ring so as to be axially variable in shape relative to the bearing ring such that the lash compensation element is capable of being biased against a front surface of the bearing ring of the angular contact rolling bearing; and a U-shaped ring profile, which has two radially opposing legs directed in an axial direction, at least partially surrounding the lash compensation element, rendering the lash compensation element radially immoveable by positive engagement, the bearing ring having a shoulder between the raceway and the front surface, the shoulder having a circumferential outer contour forming an outer diameter of the bearing ring and the circumferential inner contour forming an inner diameter of the bearing ring, wherein a section of the shoulder at the front surface has a radially outer diameter that is smaller than said outer diameter of the bearing ring, a radially outer leg of the legs is received in the section of the shoulder such that the U-shaped ring profile does not protrude radially beyond the outer diameter of the bearing ring, and a radially inner leg of the legs projects radially inward of the inner diameter of the inner contour.
