A wheel bearing assembly includes a fixed inner axle with at least one inner race, a rotatable outer hub disposed about the axle and having at least one outer race and rolling elements disposed between the inner and outer races. An annular seal is disposed between the axle and the hub and is located adjacent to the inner and outer races. A shield is spaced axially from the seal such that the seal is disposed between the rolling elements and the shield. The shield includes a rigid annular body having an outer radial end coupled with the outer hub, preferably by a plurality of couplers, and an inner radial end defining a central opening for receiving the axle and located adjacent to the inner axle or a component disposed upon the axle. As such, the annular body substantially obstructs an annular interior space to prevent substances from contacting the seal.

Lip seals and related methods

Seal assemblies, gaskets, bearing assemblies, and their components can be used as pre-packaged seal systems and pre-packaged seal and bearing systems. The seal assemblies can be orientated in different configurations for different applications. Gaskets to restrict flow and gaskets with memory lips to operate as sealing lips can be included to increase the number of sealing points. In a pre-packaged configuration, the cylinder can be a straight cylinder, a stepped cylinder, or a split cylinder. Bearing assemblies can be pre-packaged with the sealing assemblies and service grease may optionally be used to provide lubrication and limit fluid incursion into the spring cavities.

Rolling-element bearing assembly

A rolling-element bearing assembly includes a first bearing ring and a second bearing ring that define a bearing interior between them, a plurality of rolling elements disposed in the bearing interior to allow a relative rotation of first and second bearing rings, and a seal assembly for sealing the bearing interior. The seal assembly includes a seal carrier that is connected to the first bearing ring such that they rotate together and a seal element that is connected to the seal carrier such that they rotate together, and the seal carrier comprises a fiber-reinforced plastic.

Sealing assembly for bearings, in particular for use in agriculture
