Abstract
A bearing arrangement (15), in particular for a device (1) with a rotatable disc or a magnetic-tape apparatus (101) has a shaft (19) which is connected to an auxiliary member (23) via a hinge (21). The shaft (19) is radially supported and the auxiliary member (23) is axially supported. As a result of the connection via a hinge (21) the auxiliary member (23) can align itself without the alignment of the shaft (19) being influenced, so that the requirement imposed on the accuracy of the bearing surfaces of the shaft (19) relative to the bearing surfaces of the auxiliary member (23) can be less stringent.
