Abstract
A liquid pump/motor combination powered by an electric motor, preferably, an oil pump or reducing-agent pump with an electric motor, a positive displacement pump and a bearing shield arranged between the electric motor and the positive displacement pump. The liquid pump/motor combination comprises a positive displacement pump; an electric motor; and a bearing shield having a contact face, the bearing shield arranged between the electric motor and the positive displacement pump. A spherical bearing is accommodated in the bearing shield, the spherical bearing, under application of a force, being able to swivel to a limited extent. A connecting shaft is accommodated in the spherical bearing. The connecting shaft is positioned between the electric motor and the pump. An annular bearing gap, filled with liquid, is between the inside diameter of the spherical bearing and the connecting shaft. The arrangement functions as a hydrodynamic sliding bearing.
