A wheel is assembled and fitted with a frame of the scooter, and includes a bearing support, a hub, at least one bearing and a hollow area. The bearing support includes an inner surface facing towards a rotation center of the wheel. Each bearing includes an outer ring and an inner ring, the outer ring is fixedly connected to the hub, and the inner ring and the frame are fixedly connected to the bearing support, respectively. The hollow area is surrounded by the inner surface.

A producing method of a bearing unit includes: a step of measuring torque of a first bearing unit under each of a plurality of load conditions during production of the first bearing unit; a step of determining a target value of each of a plurality of production parameters based on of a load-torque relationship obtained from measurement results of the torque; and a step of producing a second bearing unit on the basis of the target value of each of the plurality of production parameters.

A wheel bearing unit for a motor vehicle, comprising a wheel hub, a wheel bearing housing and a rolling bearing by which the wheel hub is mounted rotatably in relation to the wheel bearing housing. The rolling bearing has at least one row of rolling elements which are guided on the wheel hub side in a bearing inner ring which is designed as a separate component in relation to the wheel hub and which is fixedly connected to the wheel hub. The wheel hub has a through opening with an inner toothing, via which through opening the wheel hub can be connected in a non-rotational manner to a drive journal which is provided with an external toothing.

Wheel carrier apparatus for a motor vehicle including a wheel hub to which a vehicle wheel can be fastened, and an articulation apparatus for torque transmission having an articulation housing and an articulation drive element operatively connected to the articulation housing. The articulation housing is arranged coaxially to the wheel hub and is connected to the wheel hub in a rotationally fixed manner. The wheel carrier apparatus further includes a wheel carrier on which the wheel hub and the articulation housing are borne via a wheel bearing in a rotationally fixed manner. The wheel bearing includes an outer bearing ring fastened to the wheel carrier, an inner bearing ring divided in the axial direction, and multiple rolling bodies arranged radially between the inner bearing ring and the outer bearing ring. The divided inner bearing ring includes a first inner bearing ring element and a second inner bearing ring element.

A unit forming a wheel-hub includes an outer bearing ring that is stationary and a flanged body that is directly connected to a pillar of a vehicle are provided with respective locking surfaces for locking the outer ring inside an assembly seat of the flanged body.

An axle assembly having an axle housing, an axle shaft, a plurality of axle shaft bearings and a seal. The axle housing has a tubular member and an end flange that is coupled to the tubular member. The axle shaft bearings and the seal are received in the end flange and are engaged to the axle shaft. The axle shaft bearings support the axle shaft for rotation relative to the axle housing. The seal is sealingly engaged to the end flange and the axle shaft. A method for assembling an axle assembly is also provided.

A manufacturing method for a bearing device includes a first coating process of applying a coating all over an outer ring member solely, a removal process of, after the first coating process, removing part of the coating by machining the outer ring member for forming an outer raceway surface with which rolling elements come into rolling contact, an assembling process of assembling the coated outer ring member, an inner shaft member, the rolling elements, and a cage into an assembly, and a second coating process of applying a coating to a required portion of the inner shaft member in the assembly.

A constant velocity joint assembly integrated with a wheel hub device may include an internal race coupled to an end portion of a driveshaft, a plurality of joint balls held in the internal race, and a hub housing accommodating and coupling the internal race holding the joint balls therein, with a bearing coupled to an external circumferential surface thereof, the hub housing provided as an external race of a constant velocity joint and the wheel hub device.
