ABSTRACT:
A sealed thrust bearing assembly includes a bearing member comprising spaced apart annular thrust rings with a plurality of bearing elements retained therebetween. An annular shell holds the spaced apart thrust rings in a fixed axial spaced relation with one another permitting relative rotation therebetween and about a common axis. A flat carrier plate extends transversely of this axis and has a generally circular through opening which receives a cylindrical carrier member adapted to engage both the opening and the inner diameter of the bearing member. An annular, elastomeric sealing member is interposed between the carrier plate and the facing surface of the bearing member. The cooperating structure of the carrier member positions the sealing member so as to form and maintain a seal about the surface of the bearing member facing the carrier plate, substantially without regard for variations in the axial spacing between the facing surfaces of the bearing member and the carrier plate.
