ABSTRACT:
A turbocharger having a main housing with a throughbore through which a tubular bearing carrier is coaxially positioned. A shaft extends through the bearing carrier and is rotatably secured to the bearing carrier by a pair of axially spaced bearing assemblies, each having an inner race, an outer race and bearing elements entrapped therebetween. A pair of spacers are coaxially positioned around the shaft in between the bearing assemblies so that an outer axial end of each spacer abuts against the outer race of each bearing assembly. A helical compression spring in a state of compression urges the spacers axially away from each other to equalize the axial compressive load on each bearing assembly and thereby minimize bearing skidding and uneven wear.
