Abstract
A mount for a bearing is provided which includes a securing element that extends around a perimeter of at least one bearing ring and is welded to the support surface. The bearing ring includes an annular recess that receives a radial lip on the securing element. The securing element is at least temporarily secured to the bearing ring until the securing element is welded to the support surface. Thereafter, the configuration of the securing element fixes and secures the bearing on the support surface. Preferably both the annular recess and radial lip have at least one mating tapered surface which locate and provide a positive locking engagement between the securing element and the bearing ring without high manufacturing tolerances.
