A seal member is provided in which lip wear is suppressed and resistance to muddy water is increased, as well as a bearing device for a wheel, provided with the seal member. An encoder (63) and an elastic member (65) form a labyrinth section (8) between an outer peripheral surface (61a) of a turned-back section (613) and an inner peripheral surface (64a) of an inner fitting section (641). The labyrinth section (8) extends axially outward and radially outward, and an inner peripheral surface (63c) of the encoder (63) that covers an inner peripheral surface (61c) of the turned-back section (613) is sloped axially inward and radially outward.

A sensing device for vehicle includes a first sensing part configured to sense first information related to a wheel to generate a first signal; a second sensing part configured to sense second information related to the wheel to generating a second signal; a first insert to which the first sensing part is fixed; a second insert to which the second sensing part is fixed, the second insert being coupled to the first insert; at least one first connection part connected to the first sensing part and configured to supply a first power to the first sensing part or to transmit the first signal; at least one second connection part connected to the second sensing part and configured to supply a second power to the second sensing part or to transmit the second signal; and a body configured to accommodate the first and second sensing parts therein.

The sensor bearing unit provides a bearing having an inner ring and an outer ring centered on an axis, the inner ring mounted on a shaft, and an impulse ring provided with a target holder and with a target mounted on the target holder, the target holder being secured to the inner ring. The target holder includes anti-rotation features adapted to cooperate with complementary anti-rotation features of the shaft so as to prevent angular movement of the impulse ring relative to the shaft by abutment in circumferential direction.

An arrangement of an angle measurement device on the chassis of a vehicle. The chassis includes a control arm (1) and a pivot bearing (2) with a pivot axis. The control arm (1) pivots about the pivot axis and the angle measurement device has a sensor (3) and a signal emitter. The sensor (3) is arranged on the control arm (1), in the area of the pivot axis, and the signal emitter is arranged on the pivot bearing (2).

A roller bearing assembly for determining loads on a roller bearing includes a roller bearing having coaxial inner and outer rings and an axis of rotation, and a plurality of rollers each having a rotation axis being arranged between the rings. At least one ring has recess for receiving a force-measuring pin. A force-measuring pin is received in the recess. The longitudinal axis of the force-measuring pin extends at least partly along the axis of rotation of the roller bearing. The recess and the force-measuring pin extends into a region, which is under a load, of the ring that has the recess such that at least one vertical projection plane perpendicular to the rotation axis of the rollers extends along the force-measuring pin and a region of maximum load. This allows loads to be reliably measured.

The method concerns the manufacturing of a target holder for sensor bearing unit, having a preliminary step of manufacturing a metal sheet, and a step of manufacturing the target holder. The manufacturing step of the target holder includes a forming operation of the target holder from the manufactured metal sheet providing the target holder with at least an axial fixing portion intended to be secured to a ring of the sensor bearing unit, and with a radial portion extending at least radially with respect to the axial fixing portion, a curved linking portion being formed between the axial fixing portion and the radial portion. At least one of the manufacturing steps comprises a surface roughening operation providing a surface roughness value ranging between 0.05 μm and 0.95 μm.

Sensorised wheel hub unit and a method for detecting, in real time, forces and moments applied to an outer ring of the wheel hub unit in which piezoresistive ceramic plates are made of one piece with welded metal plates housed within respective recesses formed in an outer surface of the outer ring over respective races for rolling elements in such a way that there is a gap between the plates and a base wall of each recess; in which the temperature of the outer ring and the amplitude and frequency of first electrical signals (S1) associated with the sensors relating to the same race are analysed to determine a frequency value equal to the frequency of the first signal having the maximum amplitude and as many amplitude values (D1-Dn) as there are sensors associated with that race and each equal to the maximum amplitude of the first signal from each sensor, corrected according to the temperature.
