ABSTRACT:
A self-aligning bearing is provided with an axial thrust movement preventing system along at least one bearing support structure. The system controls end play within an acceptable range without excessive frictional losses and enables the bearing to withstand considerable axial impact with no function impairment. In the preferred embodiment, the system includes a retaining ring mounted to a shaft supported by a self-aligning bearing. A thrust sleeve is mounted axially inboard of the retaining ring and is interconnectable with the ring. The thrust sleeve is positioned axially outboard of the self-aligning bearing and engages the bearing support structure when axially inward loads are imposed on the shaft.
