A sealing device for a wheel hub unit configured to form a static seal to protect the wheel hub unit from environmental contaminants. The sealing device including a metal shield that is coupled to a collar of the wheel hub unit, and has an end wall, a cylindrical lateral wall integral with, and orthogonal to, the end wall. The lateral wall has twice the thickness of the end wall in order to impart stiffness to the metal shield, and a stop edge integral with the cylindrical lateral wall on the opposite side to the end wall, for bearing axially against the collar; a sealing gasket formed by a silicone-based sealing compound being provided to allow the formation of a bead against a cylindrical lateral wall in an assembly configuration of the sealing device.

A hub for bicycles with a hub shell rotatably supported relative to a hub axle by roller bearings and a rotor rotatably supported relative to the hub axle by at least two rotor bearings and with a freewheel device with two interacting freewheel components namely, a hub-side freewheel component and a rotor-side freewheel component. The two freewheel components are movable relative to one another in the axial direction between a freewheel position and an intermeshing engaging position in which a driving torque can be transmitted. The hub-side freewheel component is compact in configuration and a hub bearing to rotatably support the hub shell is integrated and configured therein. An outer ring of the hub bearing is configured in an axial body section of the hub-side freewheel component. A sealing unit protects the interior of the hub bearing from the entry of dirt and water.

A bearing device for a wheel including: an outer ring; a hub ring having at least one inner ring, the hub ring also having double rows of inner rolling surfaces formed on the outer periphery of the hub ring; double rows of balls contained in between respective rolling surfaces of the outer ring and the hub ring; and an outer seal member. The bearing device includes: core metal having a circular cylinder section and a circular plate section provided at an opening of the outer ring; and a lip having an elastic body and provided to the circular plate section. An annular dam section having an elastic body and protruding further radially outward than the outer peripheral surface of the outer ring extends from the circular plate section, and an outer member-side eaves section having a circular cylindrical shape and protruding axially so as to surround the outer ring.

A wheel assembly includes a wheel portion comprises a web having an inboard surface. The web may define a torque bar retention slot that extends from the inboard surface of the web. The wheel assembly may also include a bushing disposed in the torque bar retention slot, wherein the bushing comprises an open end and a closed end. Still further, the wheel assembly may include a torque bar coupled to the wheel, and the torque bar may include a boss extending into the bushing through the open end of the bushing such that the boss of the torque bar is at least partially disposed within the torque bar retention slot of the wheel portion.

An article movement system includes an article and at least one ball wheel. The article has first and second article surfaces meeting at a first article edge. The ball wheel is located along the first article edge and includes a ball, a bearing arrangement and a shell. The ball engages a surface underlying the article, the bearing arrangement supports the ball for omni-directional rotational movement, and the shell is located along the first article edge and contains the ball and the bearing arrangement. The shell defines a non-circular ball opening through which a portion of the ball extends to contact the underlying surface. The article, the bearing arrangement and the shell are configured such that the ball wheel is able to support the article for omni-directional rolling motion over the underlying surface with either of the first and article surfaces parallel thereto, and at any orientation therebetween.

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 constant velocity joint for a vehicle is provided and may include hub housing, a bearing assembly, a power transmission member, and a boot. The hub housing is combined with the constant velocity joint in the hub housing. The bearing assembly includes 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. The power transmission member is disposed between the inner race and the outer race. The boot has a band seat positioned on the inner race and a fixing band fixed on a top of the boot and the boot is coupled to the inner race by the fixing band. The boot further includes a boot lip that is formed at one end or both ends of the band seat and protrudes toward the knuckle.

A wheel loosening sensor configured to detect loosening of a wheel of a vehicle, the wheel loosening sensor including: a water tight housing that is permanently sealed, wherein at least two electrical terminals are exposed at an exterior of the water tight housing. Within the water tight housing, there is a transmitter and a battery, the transmitter being configured to receive electrical power from the battery and to transmit a signal when the at least two electrical terminals are disconnected. The water tight housing including an electrically conductive element biased away from the at least two electrical terminals and configured to electrically connect the two electrical terminals when the bias is overcome.

A wheel bearing apparatus has a seal (8) with a metal core (15) and a sealing member (6). The sealing member (6) has a first side lip (16a), a second side lip (16b) and a third side lip (19c). The first side lip (16a) opposes a metal annulus (17) via an axial gap. The second side lip (16b) is in sliding contact with a base (18), via an axial interference. The third side lip (19a) covers the outer surface of the metal core (15). The tip end of the third side lip (19a) is formed with a vertically flat surface opposing the inner-side surface (4b) of the wheel mounting flange (4, 28), via an axial gap (S1), to form a first labyrinth seal (20). The outer edge of the metal annulus (17) opposes the sealing member (6), via an axial gap, to form a second labyrinth seal (25).

The present invention refers to a security device for a vehicle bearing device. (1), which is manufactured in order to increase the level of safety for the prevention of removal of a rolling medium of a motor vehicle as it can be a compact, medium-sized vehicle, pick-up, among other segments of vehicles and that includes a fixing unit (100), a mechanism for closing and opening (200), which inside has a combination core (300) which in turn has a configuration with synchrony and unique combination to obtain the opening thereof.
