Abstract

A rolling bearing embodied as a radial-axial rolling bearing which has a bearing sleeve in which rolling bodies designed for absorbing axial forces are arranged in pockets of an axial cage. The axial cage has, on its inner side, a centering bevel which is produced by deformation of the axial cage.

Claims (11)

1. A rolling bearing, comprising:

an axial cage having an axis of rotation and forming pockets; and

a bearing sleeve in which rolling bodies designed for absorbing axial forces are arranged in the pockets of the axial cage,

wherein the axial cage has, on radially inner end a centering bevel that extends radially outwardly from axis of rotation and axially away from the bearing sleeve.

2. The rolling bearing of claim 1 , wherein the centering bevel is produced by deformation of the axial cage.

3. The rolling bearing of claim 1 , wherein an angle between the centering bevel and an axial direction is 5° to 60°.

4. The rolling bearing of claim 1 , wherein the rolling bodies are embodied as cylinder rollers.

5. The roiling bearing of claim 1 , wherein the rolling bodies are arranged between the bearing sleeve and a rotor disk, which is parallel to the bearing sleeve.

6. The rolling bearing of claim 1 , further comprising further rolling bodies which are arranged within the bearing sleeve to absorb radial forces.

7. The rolling bearing of claim 1 , wherein the rolling bearing is a constituent part of a dual-clutch transmission.

8. The rolling bearing of claim 1 , wherein an angle between the centering bevel and an axial direction is 30° to 40°.
