Abstract
Disclosed is a biasing device comprising a first ramp disc and a second ramp disc, a plurality of ramp contours being formed in one side of an annular surface of each of said ramp discs. Through a slewing of one of the two ramp discs relative to the other, non-slewing ramp disc about an axis, the rolling elements ascend and/or descend along the ramp contours. At least the first ramp disk, the cage and the second ramp disc are inserted into a retaining pot that is connected rotationally fast to a housing through at least one retaining element. For axial guidance, a plurality of rolling elements is arranged between the retaining pot and the non-slewing ramp disc.
