The shaft bearing with a ball socket is mounted in a substantially cylindrical cavity in a frame-mounted housing. The shaft is guided through the ball socket. The ball socket rests in a bearing seat in the housing formed at a bottom of the cavity and is pressed in the bearing seat by a structural member having a prestressed spring means providing a spring force, whereby the ball socket being movable in a radial direction against the spring force from the bearing seat. The structural member has a dish-like base, whose diameter is larger than the diameter of the cavity and, as part of the spring means, a plurality of resilient tongues supported by the base belonging to the structural member extending at least approximately in opposite directions, whose free ends extending away from each other rest on the bearing under compression and whose ends facing each other are connected with the base.
