Abstract
A rolling bearing arrangement, which has at least one angular contact rolling bearing arranged within a housing and at least one lash compensation element that is supported axially in one direction on the housing and is capable of being biased against a bearing ring of the angular contact rolling bearing with the bearing ring being axially movable relative to the housing, and a U-shaped ring which has two radially opposing legs directed in an axial direction. The U-shaped ring rendering the lash compensation element radially immovable by positive engagement while being guided on the bearing ring of the angular contact rolling bearing for axial displacement relative to the bearing ring, and the axial section of the bearing ring projecting axially between the legs of the ring profile.
