Abstract

A bearing assembly includes a first race member with a first annular body with a first inner diameter and a first outer diameter. The first race member has a first attachment feature and a first protuberance extending inboard of the first attachment feature. A second race member has a second annular body with a second inner diameter and a second outer diameter. The second race member has a second attachment feature and a second protuberance extending inboard of the second attachment feature. The first attachment feature is coupled to the second attachment feature such that the first protuberance is spaced axially from the second protuberance with a channel defined therebetween. The channel extends obliquely relative to a central axis of the first race member and the second race member. A ring member has an annular frustoconical body disposed in the channel which extends obliquely relative to the central axis.
