Abstract
A supercharger for a motor vehicle engine may include a bearing device for mounting a shaft in a hub of a bearing housing. The bearing device may be configured to mount the shaft between a turbine wheel and a compressor wheel of the shaft via a bearing bush that may be floatingly mounted to the shaft within the hub in a closely delimited manner relative to the hub and the shaft. The bearing bush may be securely positioned by a pin that engages into the bearing bush radially from the hub. The pin may include a first part rotatably mounted in the bearing housing and a second part engaging in a recess of the bearing bush. An axis of the first part and an axis of the second part may run parallel to one another. The bearing bush and the pin may be connected via a ball joint connection.
