ABSTRACT:
An electrical conductor bearing arrangement for conducting electrical current between rotating and non-rotating members includes at least one flexible annular race which cooperates intermediate ball bearings and a further race to provide the required electrical connection. The flexible race, which is preferably constructed of spring metal or the like, is adapted to be mounted in a support such that the outer circumferential edges of the race are firmly supported while the central recessed portion located between these circumferential edges is unsupported so that the race is free to flex as the bearings ride on the central portion. The support preferably comprises an annular member, which can be constructed of plastic or another insulating material, including spaced support surfaces which extend around the inner and outer circumferential edges and define a circumferential recess therebetween, the depth of the recess in the support member being greater than that of the recessed central portion so that the latter is unsupported.
