A bearing assembly comprising a housing and a ball at least partially
housed within the housing. The housing comprises a race having a concave
bearing surface, a sleeve surrounding the race, and a resilient member
disposed between the race and the sleeve. The surfaces of the race and
sleeve adjacent the resilient member and the surfaces of the resilient
member preferably include at least one pair of a co-operating protrusion
and recess. Alternatively, or additionally, the surfaces of the race and
the sleeve adjacent the resilient member have different curvatures.
