Bearing arrangement for a medical device
First Claim
1. Bearing arrangement in a medical device in which a rotating component is supported relative to a stationary housing, the bearing arrangement comprising a bearing that comprises an inner bearing ring and an outer bearing ring, the inner bearing ring being connected to the component which is to be supported and the outer ring being connected to the housing by way of at least one damping element, both the inner bearing ring and the outer bearing ring are made as integral one-piece elements possessing a hollow cylindrical base contour, a radial extension of the outer bearing ring in the radial direction being at least twice the radial extension of the inner bearing ring in the radial direction.

Abstract
A bearing arrangement for a medical device in which a rotating component is supported relative to a stationary housing includes a bearing with an inner ring and an outer ring. The inner ring is connected to the component which is to be supported and the outer ring is connected to the housing by way of at least one damping element. To increase quiet running of the rotating component, both the inner ring and also the outer ring are made as integral elements and have an essentially hollow cylindrical base contour, with an extension of the outer ring in the radial direction being at least twice the extension of the inner ring in the radial direction.

26. A bearing arrangement forming part of a computer tomograph to support a drum of the computer tomograph relative to a housing, the bearing arrangement comprising:
-
an inner bearing ring mounted on the drum, the inner bearing ring being a one-piece integral inner bearing ring possessing a hollow cylindrical configuration;
an outer bearing ring connected to the housing, the outer bearing ring being a one-piece integral outer bearing ring possessing a hollow cylindrical configuration;
a plurality of roll bodies positioned between the inner bearing ring and the outer bearing ring;
the outer bearing ring being connected to the housing by way of a damping element;
the outer bearing ring having a radial extent in the radial direction that is at least twice the radial extent of the inner bearing ring in the radial direction; and
the damping element being in contact with the housing and the outer bearing ring, and being positioned between facing surfaces of the housing and the outer bearing ring. - View Dependent Claims (27)
