- one of these components has a tab or extension which interacts with the adjacent component and which engages in a recess or on which the cage is supported.
- the axial securing is provided with a positive end stop between the cage and the housing.
- This end position assurance according to the invention does not require any additional components and can also be integrated within the installation space specified by the components, housing, roller bearing and inner element.
- the design of the axial securing means has little or no influence on the design of the roller bearing cage and, in addition, enables the end position securing to be cost-effectively represented by a low manufacturing outlay on the housing or the inner element.
- the radially projecting resilient tab formed by shearing results in an advantageous, cost-effective between the cylindrical components, the housing and the inner element in the area of tubular sections. Effective safety lock that can be produced, which enables the cloth to be automatically injected into the corresponding recess.
- the tab arranged on the housing side latches radially inward into a corresponding recess in the inner element.
- a tab which is arranged in one piece on the inner element and is directed radially outward forms an end stop in which it engages in a corresponding recess in the housing.
- a preferred embodiment of the invention for forming the flaps provides that each flap is provided with a cut which covers the entire bent section, i.e. the H. includes the radially emerging area of the flap. This measure favors the bending of the flap and thus simplifies production.
- a preferred embodiment of the invention provides for a longitudinal extension of the tabs, which corresponds to half the value of the maximum guide length of the inner element in the housing.
- This design has an influence, ie reduces the radial pretension of the flap, as a result of which the insertion force of the inner element into the housing is determined almost exclusively by the force of the compression spring.
- the recess has a length dimension that is greater than a maximum stroke of the inner element, so that when the switching element is installed, the switching element is inserted when the function is inserted in the housing of this travel is not limited by an attachment of the tab at the end of the recess.
- the width of the recess significantly exceeds a width dimension of the flap, as a result of which the inner element advantageously has a certain degree of rotational mobility and thus free space.
- a roller-mounted shift lock can be provided with an axial securing device, in which the roller body cage is provided with at least one radially outward extension, which latches into a corresponding recess in the housing.
- the nose-shaped attachment on the end face at the end of the roller bearing cage facing away from the latching body.
- the adjustment path is halved from the inner element.
- the recess has a longitudinal extent which is equal to or greater than the maximum stroke of the inner element.
