ABSTRACT:
A compliant bearing assembly for use in a precision slide is constructed so as to permit fine adjustment of engagement between a sliding bearing member and a shaft so as to effect minimum clearance and minimize vibration. The bearing member comprises a resilient arcuate plate or sleeve or a plurality of resilient plates, the or each plate being backed by an isotropic elastomeric medium confined between abutment stops. One of the abutment stops is adjustable for varying the displacement of the medium, thereby to displace the resilient plate inwardly against the shaft.
