Abstract
The invention relates to a securing device for a bearing ring in a housing. At least one spring element engages in an annular groove of the housing and at least one angled collar supports the bearing ring in an axial manner. The spring element is hook-shaped and forms an angle that extends in a radial manner towards the outside and at least partially back in the axial direction. At least one push element is formed on the securing device, which is actively connected to the spring element in such a manner that the spring element is prestressed in an axial manner, by actuating the push element.
