Abstract
Bearing assembly, in particular for an electric motor of a household appliance, which has a bearing sleeve of a synthetic material forming the running surface of the bearing, a shaft mounted in said sleeve, and a lubricant between the running surface of the sleeve and the shaft. The bearing sleeve consists of a synthetic material in which particles of a magnetic material are imbedded. The lubricant is a magnetic lubricant of which so small a quantity is present between the shaft and the running surface of the bearing sleeve that the lubricant forms an annular film of small axial breadth relative to the axial dimension of the sleeve.
