Your boss at a maintenance contracting company asked you to draft a recently allocated thrust baring so it would be included in the overall system simulation. The bearing data are shown in Figure.3. (a) Draw the bearing in Solidworks, choose an appropriate number of ball rollers to fit the dimensions, attach an engineering drawing from Solidworks with all views included (Top, side, front and isometric), include all dimensions in your drawing. (b) Explain what would be the most appropriate material selected for each of the housing, cage (retainer) and ball rollers? Justify your answer. (c) Briefly explain two applications where thrust bearings are needed, and the advantages for using it. D. H. Shoulder Diameter Load Rating Fillet Bore O.D. Height Radius wt.
