A sealing system including an annular support, an annular sealing element and an annular shielding element; a first and a second lip of the sealing element interact slidingly with an abutment surface of the shielding element and each include: a root portion which extends perpendicularly in cantilever fashion from a flange portion of the annular support; a flexing portion, which extends in cantilever fashion from the root portion in an oblique direction with a thinner radial thickness, delimited by an annular internal surface facing the abutment surface and by an annular external surface facing towards the support, consisting of surfaces of revolution generated by segments of circumference; and a contact portion including a wedge-shaped overhang and a step portion flanking the overhang, which forms with the abutment surface a first and a second angle (α,β), the first angle facing the annular support and being smaller than the second angle.

A rotary suspension stop for a suspension strut comprises a bearing, a lower support forming a bearing surface for an upper turn of a helical spring and an annular shrink-fitting surface turned radially in a radial reference direction, a cover comprising an annular skirt extending axially facing and at a distance from the shrink-fitting surface and a seal having a body, at least one annular sealing lip in sliding contact against the annular skirt of the cover and at least a first set of one or more elastic first shrink-fit lips projecting toward the shrink-fitting surface and shrunk to the shrink-fitting surface.

A swivel bearing unit may have a stationary radially outer ring and a rotatable radially inner ring. The swivel bearing unit may further have a double row of rolling members interposed between the radially outer ring and the radially inner ring, a casing, inside which the rings of the bearing unit are housed, and a sealing device. The sealing device may include an elastomer seal co-molded onto a shaped metal screen stably anchored to the housing. The elastomer seal may be provided with a first radial lip and with a second axially external radial lip. Both the first radial lip and the second radial lip make sliding contact by respective contacting edges with a radially external surface of the radially inner ring. The first radial lip may have a thickness (SP1) greater than a thickness (SP2) of the second radial lip.

A wheel hub unit provided with a radially outer ring, stationary in use, a radially inner ring, rotating in use, at least one row of rolling elements, interposed between the radially outer ring and the radially inner ring, and a sealing assembly, interposed between the radially outer ring and the radially inner ring, which defines cooperating with the radially outer ring or with the radially inner ring a shield of at least one labyrinth seal. The labyrinth seal does not have a circumferential symmetry but comprises an upper portion and a lower portion with respect to a symmetry axis (A) of the wheel hub unit and is provided with an angular interruption of the shield made on its lower portion corresponding to the lower side of the wheel hub unit so as to increase an outflow section thereof from the labyrinth seal itself which facilitates gravity drainage of contaminants present inside the sealing assembly.

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.

Support assembly for movable, rotating or sliding shafts, having a bearing unit adapted to receive the movable shaft, a casing and a cover for fluid sealing an opening of an internal seat of the casing; the bearing unit having a radially outer ring, a radially inner ring and a row of rolling elements between the radially outer ring and the radially inner ring; the support assembly also being provided with: a rear sealing device, placed on the opposite side with respect to the cover, and comprising a metal shield and a vulcanized rubber liner equipped with a first, axially outer, sealing lip and with a second, axially inner, sealing lip the support assembly being characterized in that the rear sealing device comprises a further third sealing lip slidingly contacting the radially inner ring.

A bearing unit having a stationary radially outer ring, a radially inner ring, rotatable with respect to a rotation axis (X) and steadily connected to a rotating shaft, a row of rolling bodies interposed between the radially outer ring and the radially inner ring, a casing, inside which the rings of the bearing unit are housed, a sealing device, and a protection disk. The protection disk may be mounted in an axially external position to the sealing device and fixed to the radially inner ring. Additionally, the protection disk may have a shaped metallic screen, and an elastomer coating over-molded on part of the screen. The protection disk may further be in contact with an axially external surface of the radially outer ring through the elastomer coating, which is provided with two lips, a first lip, non-contacting or contacting and radially external, and a second lip, contacting and radially internal.

The invention provides a seal for a taper roller bearing. The seal includes: a frame having: an outer flange, extending radially outward, an inner flange, extending radially inward, an middle flange, located between the outer flange and the inner flange and extending in an axial direction. The outer flange, the inner flange and the middle flange are integrally formed; a sealing ring, at least connects and covers the radial outer side of the outer flange of the frame, and has at least one sealing lip extending outward in the radial direction. The invention also provides an assembly for a taper roller bear, which provides a taper roller bearing. An inn ring of that taper roller bearing has a shoulder with a large flange; and a seal as described above. The middle flange is in interference fit with the outer circumferential surface of the shoulder, and the inner flange presses against and covers at least a part of the large flange.

A sealed rolling bearing is provided which includes slingers, and seal members disposed between the inner ring and the outer ring, and sealing the rolling element installation area. The radially inner and outer portions of each slinger are bent inwardly such that a labyrinth portion is defined between the radially outer bent portion of the slinger and the radially inner surface of the outer ring, the labyrinth portion having a path length, in the axial direction of the bearing, longer than the material thickness of the slinger.

A bearing seal provides a first sealing member to be secured to a shoulder on one side of a first bearing ring and a second sealing member that can be secured to a shoulder on the same side of a second bearing ring. A labyrinth seal gap is formed between the first sealing member and the second sealing member, which has at least one tooth-shaped turn. On the basis of the above bearing seal, the present invention further provides a rolling bearing that employs the bearing seal on an axial side thereof.
