A foil thrust bearing assembly (12) for an oil-free turbocharger including a top foil member (26a, 526b, 126, 226) and a circular bump foil member (28a, 28b, 128, 228). The top and bottom foil members (26a, 26b, 126, 226) and (28a, 28b, 128, 228) include step surfaces (50, 150, 250) and (64, 264), respectively, that aid in positioning the foil thrust bearing assembly (12) within the bearing housing (32a, 32b). |
