  • Patent number: 10871211
    Abstract: A ball screw drive (10) including a threaded spindle (12) having a first, free end (16) and a second end (17) which can be connected to a drive, and a spindle nut (14) at least partially enclosing the threaded spindle (12) coaxially. A plurality of balls (26) recirculate in the space between the threaded spindle (12) and the spindle nut (14) form the core element. An extension sleeve (15), which connects coaxially to the spindle nut (14), is fixedly connected to the latter and moves together with it relative to the threaded spindle (12). At the first end (16) of the threaded spindle (12), a substantially circular bearing ring (18, 30, 50, 70) is attached to the outer circumference of the threaded spindle (12), which circular bearing ring serves as a shaft bearing between the threaded spindle (12) and the extension sleeve (15) and which has a noise-dampening effect due to at least one integrated spring/damping element.
