A roller bearing arrangement for a gas turbine engine. The roller bearing arrangement includes a fan shaft, and a stub shaft connected to the fan shaft. The roller bearing arrangement further includes a plurality of roller bearing elements positioned between a first axial bearing surface created on a radially outer surface of the stub shaft and a second axial bearing surface of a static structure, the roller bearing arrangement further including a first snubber positioned between the radially outer surface of the fan shaft and a radially inner surface of the stub shaft, the first snubber being spaced apart from the radially inner surface of the stub shaft or the radially outer surface of the fan shaft so as to limit a radial movement range of the stub shaft.

A bearing assembly for a charging apparatus. The bearing assembly comprises a bearing housing and a shaft. The bearing assembly further comprises a compressor-side bearing bushing and a turbine-side bearing bushing which together support the shaft inside a bearing bore of the bearing housing. The compressor-side bearing bushing is configured differently than the turbine-side bearing bushing.

An engine assembly defining an axial direction (A) and including a gearbox, an engine core including at least one rotor, and a flexible coupling shaft having a first end and a second end along the axial direction (A).

The roller bearing arrangement further includes a plurality of roller bearing elements positioned between a first axial bearing surface created on a radially outer surface of the stub shaft and a second axial bearing surface of a static structure, the roller bearing arrangement further including a first snubber positioned between the radially outer surface of the fan shaft and a radially inner surface of the stub shaft, the first snubber being spaced apart from the radially inner surface of the stub shaft or the radially outer surface of the fan shaft so as to limit a radial movement range of the stub shaft.

When the compressed air is not applied, an inclined surface, which is positioned at an upstream side with respect to the supply direction of the compressed air, of the lip part is in contact with the inclined surface of the inner ring. When the compressed air is applied, a contact area between the inclined surface, which is positioned at the upstream side with respect to the supply direction of the compressed air, of the lip part and the inclined surface of the inner ring becomes smaller, as compared to when the compressed air is not applied.
