    Abstract: A product for use with a turbocharger is disclosed. According to a number of variations, the product may include a bearing housing with a bearing assembly positioned in the bearing housing. A shaft may extend through the bearing assembly for rotation. A turbine wheel may be exposed to high temperature exhaust gases and may be connected to the shaft. The product may include a number of features to manage heat transfer and protect the bearing assembly from excessive temperatures that may otherwise result from exposure to the exhaust gases.

    Abstract: A turbocharger includes a shaft extending along an axis, a compressor wheel coupled to a first end of the shaft, a turbine wheel coupled to a second end of the shaft and having a first diameter; and a bearing housing extending about the shaft. The bearing housing is disposed between the compressor wheel and the turbine wheel. The bearing housing having a thermal dam having a volume extending circumferentially about the shaft and disposed proximate to the second end of the shaft between the compressor wheel and the turbine wheel. The thermal dam has a second diameter extending radially from the shaft. Moreover, the second diameter of the thermal dam is between 1.1 and 1.2 times greater than the first diameter of the turbine wheel.

    Abstract: A turbocharger includes a shaft, a compressor wheel, a turbine wheel, and a bearing assembly including an inner race, a first outer race spaced from the inner race, a second outer race spaced from the inner race, a first rolling element disposed between the first outer race and the inner race, and a second rolling element disposed between the second outer race and the inner race. The bearing assembly includes a first biasing member configured to bias the first outer race toward the second outer race and against the first rolling element, and preload the first rolling element with a preloading force, and a second biasing member configured to bias the second outer race toward the first outer race and against the second rolling element, and preload the second rolling element with a second preloading force. The first preloading force is different than the second preloading force.
