ABSTRACT:
A bearing for a ball-shaped gimbal ring of a gimbal system has opposing arcuate tracks mounted individually to a gimbal ring and a base of the system. In a first embodiment, a ring track is segmentally opposed by a base track. Balls are disposed within the ring track and are kept there by a cage and retainer. A second embodiment includes a gimbal ring track that is fully opposed by the base track. Caged balls partially fill these tracks so that the balls are constantly opposed by the tracks in spite of differences in track and ball speeds.
