First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A bearing arrangement comprising a bearing cover and a bearing block bearing thereon, wherein the bearing block has a recess in the area of the arrangement of the bearing cover, wherein the bearing cover can be arranged in the recess, wherein the bearing cover comprises vertically running positioning elements, wherein the bearing cover can be positioned on the bearing block via the vertically running positioning elements, wherein the recess of the bearing block for the arrangement of the bearing cover is delimited by side walls, and wherein said side walls comprise additional positioning elements. 2. The bearing arrangement as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the vertically running positioning elements are formed by positioning grooves, positioning webs, or positioning grooves and positioning webs. 3. The bearing arrangement as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the vertically running positioning elements of the bearing cover have a longitudinal extension and are designed to taper at least partly over the longitudinal extension. 4. The bearing arrangement as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the vertically running positioning elements of the bearing cover have an at least approximately triangular cross-section. 5. The bearing arrangement as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the additional positioning elements are designed to be at least almost complementary to the vertically running positioning elements of the bearing cover. 6. The bearing arrangement as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the bearing cover and the bearing block each have horizontal flat surfaces, on which the bearing cover fits on the bearing block, and wherein on said flat surfaces at least one flat surface positioning element is arranged. 7. A bearing arrangement comprising a bearing cover and a bearing block bearing thereon, wherein the bearing block has a recess in the area of the arrangement of the bearing cover, wherein the bearing cover can be arranged in the recess, wherein the bearing cover comprises vertically running positioning elements, wherein the bearing cover can be positioned on the bearing block via the vertically running positioning elements, wherein the bearing cover has vertical bearing faces, wherein the bearing cover fits on the bearing block via the vertical bearing faces, and wherein for each vertical bearing face at least two of the vertically running positioning elements are arranged.
