A device for compensating for a radial clearance between a rolling bearing (3), as shown a ball bearing, and a bore (41) in which the bearing is mounted comprises a disc (2) which is formed with an axially protruding rim in the form of a wedge (21) which engages in the radial clearance and a spring (22) for urging the wedge of the disc into the clearance. A double wedge may be provided to locate spring 22, Fig. 2 (not shown). Alternatively, the spring may be moulded integrally with the disc and may comprise a bellows. Such a device may be injection moulded in a plastics material. Disc (2) also acts as a seal. <IMAGE> |
