Abstract
An axial roller bearing assembly is provided. The axial roller bearing assembly includes a first axial washer including a contact surface, a bearing element engaging the first axial washer, and a spring plate connected to the first axial washer and including a first surface and a second surface. The second surface is in contact with at least a portion of the contact surface. The spring plate is configured to deflect under a load applied to the first surface such that an increasingly larger portion of the second surface abuts the contact surface.
