ABSTRACT:
In order to specify a rack-and-pinion gear having a gearbox case, in a drill hole of which is guided a steering rack (6) making contact via a pinion arranged in a pinion housing area (3), which is economical and simple to construct, does not have a tendency to chatter and guarantees an improved sealing with simultaneous simplification of the housing construction, it is proposed that the drill hole (7) be enlarged in an eccentric sense in the area where the pinion and steering rack mesh and for a wedge bearing element (10), substantially in the form of a sleeve, having at least two sleeve sections (11,12) located in succession in an axial sense and developed to be eccentric to each other, to be inserted in the meshing area.
