Abstract
A tensioner for preloading a bearing, the bearing including inner and outer bearing rings. The tensioner including a component having a housing and a carrier element that extends radially inwardly from the housing, the outer bearing ring having an outer surface that forms an axially extending radial surface and having a first axial end formed by a radially extending axial surface and directly abutting the carrier element, a support element for supporting the component relative to the inner bearing ring such that a closed force flow arises from the outer bearing ring via the component and the support element, and a sleeve positioned radially between the outer surface of the first bearing ring and the housing such that an inner surface of the sleeve abuts the outer surface of the outer bearing ring and an outer surface of the sleeve abuts a conical surface of the housing.
