Abstract
A flexible hub assembly for mounting of a carousal wheel is provided which maintains close contact between an annular array of spheres composing the loop mechanism of a continuous loop mouse or position control device, the flexible hub permitting the carousal wheel to move outwardly and the flexible hub pressing the carousal wheel inwardly in response to variations in size and shape of the spheres and in response to the presence of contamination on the spheres.
