Abstract
A bearing assembly particularly suitable for the rotor arrangement of an electrical motor or generator includes a bearing located in a housing. The bearing has an inner race, an outer race, and a plurality of ball bearings between the inner and outer races. A portion of the housing is made up of a deformable flexible wall which permits the housing to conform to the shape of the outer race member, rather than forcing the outer race to conform to the shape of the housing, as was experienced hitherto.
