Abstract: An arrangement, comprising two shaft ends (1, 2), which are mutually connected by a coupling element (3) so as to transmit torque, the coupling element (3) being associated with a bearing (4), which receives at least one shaft end (1), the bearing (4) comprising a support body (5) for the shaft end (1) and an outside body (6) surrounding the support body, and an elastic deformable layer (7) being disposed between the support body (5) and the outside body (6), with the aim of creating an arrangement that guarantees the lowest possible cardan rigidity while achieving maximum radial rigidity, is characterized in that the elastic layer has at least in part a spherical configuration. A bearing also has at least in part a spherically configured layer.
