Rolling bearing for the mounting of a drive worm of an electromechanical power steering system of a motor vehicle
Abstract:
A rolling bearing for mounting a driving worm of a power-assisted steering system of a vehicle includes a rotatable inner ring and a rotationally fixed outer ring. Rolling elements arranged between the inner and outer ring are guided by a channel-shaped first raceway arranged on a radially outer side of the inner ring and by a channel-shaped second raceway arranged on a radially inner side of the outer ring. The second raceway includes a cross-sectional profile that varies around its circumference. The cross-sectional profile allows laterally offset rolling elements to roll and thus tilting of the inner ring about a tilting axis orthogonal to the axis of rotation of the rolling bearing if the tilting axis assumes a predetermined tilted position in the circumferential direction of the second raceway and limits tilting of the inner ring to a minimum when the tilting axis is angled 90° to the tilted position.
