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.
