Rolling bearing arrangements are disclosed. The bearing may include an outer ring, an inner ring, and a strain sensor device having an annular main body. The strain sensor device may be connected to the outer ring and configured to measure axial loads acting on the rolling bearing. A circle segment-shaped force introduction element may extend in a circumferential direction and connect to the annular main body via a web-shaped coupling element. The strain sensor device may have, on an outer end facing away from the rolling bearing, a recess for accommodating a strain sensor. The recess may extend over the force introduction element at least in the circumferential direction and the coupling element may have a smaller extent in a radial direction than the recess.

A device for receiving a workpiece for a workpiece carrier circulation system of a production machine is provided, including a workpiece carrier with a workpiece receiver and a holder to be arranged on the machine for receiving the workpiece carrier in a detachable, temporary manner. The workpiece carrier includes a rotor section () which, when the workpiece carrier is received in the holder, interacts with a stator () provided on the holder, forming a torque motor and thus being rotatable about an axis in the holder.
