Sealing Structure With Torsional Damper And Oil Seal
A sealing structure with a torsional damper and an oil seal includes a damper pulley serving as a torsional damper and an oil seal. The damper pulley has an annular hub pocket that is recessed in the outer side direction and extends in the circumferential direction along a boss part of a hub. The oil seal includes a side lip that extends toward the outer side. An outer circumferential surface of the hub pocket increases in a diameter toward the outer side, the side lip of the oil seal does not enter inside the hub pocket, and an annular gap is formed between an outer side end of the side lip and an inner side end of the outer circumferential surface of the hub pocket.
Bearing with protective cover for a seal
A bearing having an inner ring, an outer ring, and at least one seal arranged between the rings. The bearing including a protective cover that delimits an annular space into which the seal extends and provides an outer annular portion and at least one inner portion disposed radially facing and at a distance from one another, and a connecting annular portion linking the outer annular portion and the inner portion; and at least one means for fixing the protective cover onto the inner ring, the fixing means passing through the outer and inner portions of the protective cover and cooperating with the inner ring.
Sealing arrangement for a wheel bearing
A seal arrangement for a wheel bearing having first bearing part and a second bearing part integrally connected to a wheel bearing flange, between which bearing parts rolling elements are guided. The sealing arrangement includes: a carrier element, which is connected to the first bearing part and an elastic element is provided on the carrier element. The elastic element has at least one sealing lip, and the carrier element has a fastening section, which is connected to the first bearing part. A stop part is fastened to the second bearing part with which the at least one sealing lip is in rubbing contact. The wheel bearing flange has an axial projection at least partially surrounds an axial projection of the first bearing part, and an inner surface of the axial projection of the wheel bearing flange forms a seat for the stop part.
VEHICLE WHEEL BEARING HAVING ENHANCED SEALING FUNCTION
A vehicle wheel bearing includes a wheel hub having a hub flange to which a wheel is mounted; at least one inner ring mounted to one side of the wheel hub in a press-fitting manner; an outer ring provided radially outward of the inner ring and having a mounting flange to be mounted to the vehicle body on an outer circumferential surface; one or more rolling elements provided radially inward of the outer ring; and a sealing member configured to prevent foreign matters from flowing into the wheel bearing. The sealing member includes a first sealing member mounted to the wheel hub or the inner ring; and a second sealing member mounted to the outer ring. One or more elastic sealing lips are provided in one or both of the first sealing member and the second sealing member.
CONSTANT VELOCITY JOINT FOR VEHICLE
A constant velocity joint for a vehicle may include: a hub housing combined with the constant velocity joint in the hub housing; a bearing assembly including an inner race fitted on an outer surface of the hub housing, an outer race spaced a predetermined distance apart from the inner race and fitted on a knuckle, and a power transmission member disposed between the inner race and the outer race; and a boot having a band seat that is positioned on the inner race of the bearing assembly, the boot having a fixing band fixed on a top of the boot and the boot being coupled to the inner race by the fixing band, where the boot includes a boot lip that is formed at one end or both ends of the band seat and protrudes toward the knuckle.
Bearing device for vehicle wheel
A bearing device for a vehicle wheel that is capable of maintaining the sealability of a protective cover by preventing a seal member of the protective cover from being damaged without performing any complex machining. The bearing device for vehicle wheel (1) is provided with: a cylindrical sensor holder (11) that is fitted outside the protective cover (9), wherein in the outer ring (2), a protective cover fitting part (13A) to which the protective cover (9) is fitted, a seal part (13B) with which the seal member (10) of the protective cover (9) is brought into contact, and a sensor holder fitting part (13C) to which the sensor holder (11) is fitted are formed, the inner diameter of the seal part (13B) is equal to that of the sensor holder fitting part (13C), and the seal part (13B) and the sensor holder fitting part (13C) are adjacent to each other.
Flooded metallic bearing isolator
A bearing isolator capable of operating under flooded conditions is disclosed. The bearing isolator can include a stator, a rotor, a unitizing element and a sealing element, the stator and rotor form a cavity in which the unitizing element is disposed, and features of the unitizing element with features of the stator and rotor to ensure the stator and rotor stay together while still maintaining a gap between the two components to avoid metal on metal contact. The sealing element resides against a surface of the stator and includes a radially-inward extending lip seal that rides against a running surface of the rotor for improved sealing.
Sealing device
A sealing device for bearing units is disclosed herein. The sealing device may comprise a static component and a dynamic component. The static component is provided with a shaped metal support, with a plurality of non-contacting sealing lips, and with two contacting lips. The dynamic component defines a labyrinth seal with a second sealing lip of said non-contacting sealing lips, a third lip, preferably non-contacting, being positioned along the labyrinth seal and having a full angular extension, so as to form a full seal against any ingress of contaminants into the bearing unit.
Conveyor idler and support structure and methods for constructing the same
This invention provides an idler for use in conveyor systems and associated shaft and support structure that reduces the potential for infiltration of contaminants into the bearing assemblies at the opposing ends of the shaft. By use of stampings, co-molded polymer with sealed metal end caps, press-fit end shafts and stamped-metal support structures a more contamination-resistant and efficiently constructed idler assembly is provided. A hollow shaft center section can be used. The polymer defines at least three sealing structures. The shaft defines a multi-piece unit, with the end shafts press-fit onto the center shaft section and held in place by the bearing subassemblies—affixed to the idler sleeve. The support framework includes three stamped and/or cut, and folded sheet metal pieces—a center section with a pair of opposing central risers that engage end shafts, and two opposing, separately attached, end risers, that engage outermost idler end shafts.
Roller Bearing Seal Assembly
In accordance with one aspect of the present disclosure, a rotor for a railway roller bearing seal assembly is provided. The rotor includes an annular body rotatable about a central axis and including radially inner and outer rings. The annular body includes an intermediate portion connecting the radially inner and outer rings and spacing the radially inner ring in a first direction from a base portion of the annular body. The annular body further includes a pocket formed at least in part by the intermediate portion and a snap-fit portion axially intermediate the base portion and a free end portion of the radially inner ring. The snap-fit portion of the annular body is configured to form a snap-fit connection with a snap-fit member of a slinger that extends into the pocket.
