A bearing assembly (1), eg. for a brake actuating shaft (16) for a vehicle axle, comprises a bush (11) having a part-spherical outer periphery (12) and a bore (11') to receive the shaft (16), and housing members (2,3,) secured about the bush (11) having inner surfaces (8) co-operating with the bush to hold and locate it whilst allowing tilting of the bush relative to the housing members (2,3). The assembly secures at the housing members to a mounting, eg. a brake anchor bracket (6). A locating member (21) engaging an annulus (15) at the bore (11') and an annulus (19) of the shaft (16) locates the shaft axially in the bush (11). One or more protrusions (7) of one housing member (3) locate against a surface or surfaces of the mounting (6) to locate the assembly radially on the mounting and to enable the assembly to react a radial force on the shaft (16) by transmitting a proportion of the force to the mounting at the protrusion, or on of the protrusions (7). |
