Zusammenfassung:A bearing assembly includes a bearing having a first ring, a second ring rotatably disposed relative to the first ring, and a plurality of rolling elements in a bearing interior defined by the first ring and the second ring, and an electrical insulator on the first ring. The electrical insulator has an annular carrier supporting a layer of electrical insulation, and the layer of electrical insulation is disposed between the first ring and the annular carrier. The annular carrier is formed from at least one strip-shaped carrier blank bent into a ring and having a first end connected to a second end at a joint in a material-bonded and/or interference-fit manner. Also a method of forming the bearing assembly.
