By way of summary, the invention relates to a wheel bearing arrangement with first rolling elements (12), which are capable of rolling on a first inner ring (13), wherein the rolling elements are guided by means of a first roller bearing cage (2), and an axial spacer element (6) is provided for spacing apart the first inner ring from a bearing element (15), wherein the bearing element can in particular be a second inner ring. The intention is to facilitate the complex installation of the individual parts in wheel bearings for utility vehicles. For this purpose, the first rolling element cage forms, together with the axial spacer element, an axial form-fitting connection. In addition, a plurality of methods are specified regarding how this form-fitting connection can be produced in a simple manner. As a result, the spacer element can be fixed to at least one of the inner rings via the form-fitting connection to the cage prior to tightening the wheel hub, together with the wheel bearing preinstalled thereon. A holding element for temporary holding is not necessary in the installation and also the wheel bearing does not come apart during dismantling. |
