Abstract

See full text

A bearing module for a motor vehicle steering gear, comprising a steering rack (9) and a driving pinion (10) engaging therewith. The bearing module comprises at least one pressure part (3; 13, 30) exhibiting recess concavity, whose concave wall surrounds a guide through-passage (14) for axial guidance of the steering rack (9), and radial forces emitted from the wall are generated by means of at least one translatory displaceable wedge device (3c, 13; 30a; 31a) for pressing the steering rack (9), which is received in the guide through-passage (14), onto the drive pinion (10) engaging therein. The wedge device or wedge devices (3c, 13; 30a; 31a) are displaceably (14) guided in one direction extending axially or parallel to the axis in relation to the guide through-passage (14) for the steering rod (9).
