A bearing system that accepts a journal of a roll includes a housing defining a cavity and having a forward wall that defines an opening into the cavity, the opening configured to accept the journal through the opening and into the cavity. A sleeve is positioned within the cavity of the housing, the sleeve configured to surround the end of the journal. A first seal is positioned within the cavity of the housing adjacent to the forward wall of the housing, the first seal having an engagement surface. A second seal is positioned within the cavity of the housing and operably connected to the sleeve, the second seal having an engagement surface in contact with the engagement surface of the first seal.

A sealing device for a wheel hub unit configured to form a static seal to protect the wheel hub unit from environmental contaminants. The sealing device including a metal shield that is coupled to a collar of the wheel hub unit, and has an end wall, a cylindrical lateral wall integral with, and orthogonal to, the end wall. The lateral wall has twice the thickness of the end wall in order to impart stiffness to the metal shield, and a stop edge integral with the cylindrical lateral wall on the opposite side to the end wall, for bearing axially against the collar; a sealing gasket formed by a silicone-based sealing compound being provided to allow the formation of a bead against a cylindrical lateral wall in an assembly configuration of the sealing device.

In one aspect, an apparatus for retaining lubricant in a wheel hub assembly, the wheel hub assembly including a wheel hub and a spindle nut for securing the wheel hub to a vehicle spindle. The apparatus includes an annular lubricant seal, a mounting portion of the lubricant seal to be mounted to the wheel hub, a central opening of the lubricant seal to receive a running surface of the spindle nut, and a sealing portion of the lubricant seal extending around the central opening of the lubricant seal. The sealing portion is configured to form a dynamic seal with the running surface of the spindle nut and keep the lubricant from escaping between the sealing portion of the lubricant seal and the running surface of the spindle nut as the wheel hub rotates around the vehicle spindle.

A bearing housing is provided with a cooling channel in at least part of the circumference around the bearing. The cooling channel is provided with a flow guide member at least in part of its flow section to construct a tortuous passage whose flow distance is longer than the corresponding circumferential length of the flow section. On the basis of the above-mentioned bearing housing, the present invention also provides a bearing housing unit, a continuous casting roll line and a continuous casting machine that use the bearing housing. The above-mentioned bearing housing adopts an optimized cooling channel design, which can obtain a better cooling effect without changing other structures of the bearing housing. Therefore, it is particularly suitable for upgrading existing equipment and has a huge cost advantage and a wide range of application prospects.

A sealing assembly for a rolling-element bearing includes a first seal element and a second seal element, the first seal element including a first support member mounted on a first bearing ring, a first seal body extending radially from the first support member and having an oblique side surface, and at least one first seal lip extending radially from the first seal body to the second ring to form a first seal and the second seal element including a second support portion mounted on the second ring, a second seal body projecting from the second support portion and at least one second seal lip extending from the second seal body to the oblique side surface to form a second seal. A buffer member extends from the first seal element toward the second seal element and has first and second radially spaced annular ribs that extend toward the second seal element.

In an aspect of the present disclosure there is provided a temperature monitoring system, a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium for a wheel assembly and a monitoring device engageable with the hub of a wheel assembly. There is provided a sensing unit mounted proximal to at least one or more bearings of a wheel hub supporting rotation relative to a spindle, and configured for detecting and transmitting at least temperature and motion information thereof. A receiver is configured for wirelessly receiving the at least temperature and motion information from the sensing unit and wirelessly re-transmitting the information to a portable electronic communication device.

A rolling bearing unit includes: an inner ring member having a recess on a first side in an axial direction, the recess being recessed toward a second side in the axial direction; an outer ring member disposed on the outer periphery side of the inner ring member; a rolling body disposed between the inner ring member and the outer ring member and rotatably supporting the inner ring member with respect to the outer ring member; a transmitter capable of transmitting at least one of electric power or a signal, at least a part of the transmitter being accommodated inside the recess of the inner ring member; and a covering member that is supported by the first side of the outer ring member in the axial direction, covers the first side of the inner ring member in the axial direction, and fixes the transmitter.

A pair of slide components (4, 7) have sliding faces (S) sliding relative to each other, and a sealed fluid-side periphery (16) and a leakage-side periphery (15). The sliding face (S) of at least one slide component includes: a fluid introduction groove (13) in communication with the sealed fluid-side periphery (16); a first pressure generation mechanism (12) of which one end is in communication with the fluid introduction groove (13) and the other end is surrounded by a land portion (R1); and a second pressure generation mechanism (11) of which one end is in communication with the leakage-side periphery (15) and the other end is surrounded by an annular land portion (R2). The fluid introduction groove (13) and the other end (12e) of the first pressure generation mechanism (12) include overlapping portions (Lp) overlapping circumferentially. The slide components can exhibit sealing performance and lubricity regardless of rotating direction.

A cover for a bearing housing, in particular intended to be mounted on machinery for the food industry, provided with an end wall transverse to an axis of the bearing housing; with an annular side wall which extends transversely with respect to the end wall; and with an engaging portion towards the bearing housing, which is formed on one end of the side wall opposite to the end wall; a through-opening being formed through the end wall so as to allow the passage of a moving shaft, preferably a rotating shaft, and being surrounded by a reinforcing ring rigidly joined to and integral with the end wall so as to support a sealing element mounted on the through-opening and sealingly engaged by the moving shaft.
