A bearing component of a flow sensor of a domestic appliance has a rotary axle which, in the installed state, is oriented so as to be substantially perpendicular to a flow direction of a fluid channel of the domestic appliance. The flow sensor has a first bearing at each of the opposing ends of the rotary axle, two opposing second bearings being contained in the bearing component. The two second bearings are spaced apart from one another in such a way that, in one state of the bearing component, they are engaged with the first bearings of the flow sensor, at least one arm of the bearing component being elastic, so that a distance between the second bearings can be increased in order to insert the flow sensor between the second bearings.

A flow sensor of a domestic appliance has an axle that is substantially perpendicular in the installed state to the flow direction of a fluid channel of the domestic appliance. The bearing component is designed as a single part and has at least two interconnected limbs, each limb having an axle mount for one end of the axle of the flow sensor, wherein the two axle mounts are mutually spaced apart in such a way that they correspond in a relaxed condition of the bearing component to an extension of the axle of the flow sensor. The two limbs are designed to be elastic such that the spacing between the axle mounts can be increased in order to insert the flow sensor between the axle mounts.

A safety device for emergency shut-down of an electric instantaneous water heater. The safety device includes a contact and a counter contact, which are set up to conduct the current for supplying the instantaneous water heater in a contacted state and to interrupt the power supply of the instantaneous water heater in an open state. Further, the safety device includes a mounting device for mounting the counter contact on a tie rod, wherein the tie rod is set up to release the mounting device and the counter contactfrom the contact to interrupt a power supply of the instantaneous water heater. The contact of the safety device is implemented as a contact rivet which is integrated directly into a circuit board.
