A wheel hub and slinger assembly includes a wheel hub including a base surface, a tolerance compensation portion extending from the base surface and formed to be concave in an axially outward direction, and a flange surface extending from the tolerance compensation portion in a radially outward direction, and a slinger including a mounting portion having an axially inward end portion and a first inner peripheral surface and configured to be press-fitted to the base surface, a bent portion having a second inner peripheral surface spaced apart from the tolerance compensation portion and extending from the mounting portion in a curved surface shape, and an extending portion extending from the bend portion and having a contact surface in contact with the flange surface in the radially outward direction. A stopper having an axially outward end portion surface and a radially outward end portion surface is formed on the wheel hub.

A system having a rolling bearing providing at least an outer ring, at least an inner ring and at least a seal, which seals an inner space of the rolling bearing on a first axial end of the rolling bearing against ingress of liquids and dust. The system further provides a transportation safety device, which is attached to the rolling bearing and restricts swiveling of the inner ring relative to the outer ring in comparison to a state of the rolling bearing in which the transportation safety device is detached from the rolling bearing.

A rack-parallel steering system that prevents entry of abrasion powder into a rolling bearing is provided. A steering system includes a steered shaft, a rolling element screw portion, a rolling element nut, and a ball screw device. The steering system includes: a motor including an output shaft offset from the steered shaft; a drive force transfer mechanism including a toothed drive pulley, a toothed driven pulley, and a toothed belt; and a rolling bearing supporting a ball screw nut to be rotatable relative to a housing. A first seal member that contacts an outer ring and an inner ring is provided on a side surface of the rolling bearing on the driven pulley side. A second seal member that does not contact the inner ring is provided on a side surface of the ball bearing on the side opposite to the side surface on the driven pulley side.

Sealing device for a wheel hub unit is disclosed herein, wherein the sealing device being able, during use, to form a static seal for protecting the wheel hub unit from any environmental pollutant and being provided with a screen, which is engaged with a collar of the wheel hub unit and has a bottom wall, a cylindrical side wall integral with and more or less perpendicular to the bottom wall. The sealing device is designed and structured to protect the wheel hub unit from any environmental contaminant that the wheel hub unit may be exposed to during usage.

Sealing device for a wheel hub assembly provided with a rolling bearing, the sealing device being provided with a shield mounted on an outer ring of the bearing and with an annular cylindrical wall having an inner lateral surface mounted on an outer lateral surface of a collar of the outer ring; and with a sealing material fixed to the shield and defined by a pre-formed annular covering of polymer material, preferably but not necessarily rubber or thermoplastic material, formed independently and separately from the shield and mounted on the shield.

A sealing device used for a bearing includes an outer race, an inner race, and rotatable members. The inner race includes a flange that faces an edge face of the outer face. The sealing device includes a cylindrical portion, an extension portion, a first annular protrusion, and a second annular protrusion. The cylindrical portion is fixed to an inside of the outer race. The extension portion extends radially outward of an outer surface of the outer race from an end of the cylindrical portion. A part of the extension portion contacts the edge face of the outer face. The first protrusion extends toward the flange from an outer edge of the extension portion. The second protrusion extends toward the flange from a portion that is a part of the extension portion and is radically inward of the first protrusion.

A rolling bearing unit including a seal member includes a support frame having window holes, and a filter, the filter being fixedly joined to the support frame, or the support frame and the filter are formed by integral molding such that the window holes of the support frame are closed by the filter. The support frame has an inner diameter determined such that a passage through which lubricating oil can pass is defined between the support frame and the radially outer surface of the inner race. The filter includes a protruding portion protruding radially inwardly beyond the radially inner surface of the support frame such that the radially inner edge of the protruding portion is in contact with the inner race, or such that the protruding portion surrounds the radially outer surface of the inner race through a gap defined therebetween and smaller than the mesh size of the filter.

A rolling bearing assembly has a first ring including a first race, a second ring including a second race, and a plurality of rolling elements in rolling contact with the first and second races. The rolling bearing assembly also has a sealing assembly including a first end in contact with the first ring and a second end in contact with the second ring. The sealing assembly has a shield, a sealing element, and a grounding element. The shield has an attachment section in which a free end of the shield is crimped such that it is bent around the sealing element and the grounding element to thereby hold the shield, the sealing element, and the grounding element together with the shield in contact with the first ring and the grounding element in contact with the second ring. The sealing assembly thus creates an electrically conductive path between the first ring and the second ring.

A bearing assembly engaged with an end of a rotatable shaft. The assembly includes a hub defining a first bore extending between a first opening at a first end of the hub and a second opening at a second end of the hub. A bearing sleeve engaged in the first bore defines a second bore. The shaft's end is inserted through a first opening in the second bore. A sealed bearing located between the bearing sleeve and the hub's interior surface enables relative rotation therebetween. A first sealing mechanism seals the first bore's first opening and a second sealing mechanism seals the second openings of both of the first and second bores. The first sealing mechanism includes an L-shaped ring circumscribing the bearing sleeve and a rubber sealing member. The second sealing mechanism includes a hemispherical region and flange secured to the hub by a retaining ring.

A rolling bearing assembly has a first ring including a first race, a second ring including a second race, and a plurality of rolling elements in rolling contact with the first and second races. The rolling bearing assembly also has a sealing assembly including a first end in contact with the first ring and a second end in contact with the second ring. The sealing assembly has a shield, a sealing element, and a grounding element. The shield has an attachment section in which a free end of the shield is crimped such that it is bent around the sealing element and the grounding element to thereby hold the shield, the sealing element, and the grounding element together with the shield in contact with the first ring and the grounding element in contact with the second ring. The sealing assembly thus creates an electrically conductive path between the first ring and the second ring.
