In a second embodiment, at least some of the openings or slots have an extent (RL) towards the outside which is greater than the extent (R) which is necessary for sensing. Furthermore, it is proposed with respect to the pole ring (41) that some of the openings (44L) or slots have an extent (RL) towards the outside which is greater than the extent (R) of other openings (44) or slots.

A wheel hub arrangement for a motor vehicle, provided with a hub which is rotatably mounted by a wheel bearing for the attachment of a wheel. A shaft, which is formed separately from the wheel hub, is non-rotatably coupled to the wheel hub. At the same time a first receiving section of a sealing receptacle is formed in the wheel hub in which is arranged a shaft, in which a sealing device is arranged which engages a second receiving section of the sealing receptacle formed in the axial direction with respect to an axis of rotation of the wheel hub, adjacent to the first receiving section.

A sealing device for wheel hubs connected to constant-velocity joints including a first sealing assembly arranged between inner and outer rings of the wheel hub, and a second sealing assembly mounted on the inner ring and straddling the wheel hub and an outer ring of the constant-velocity joint. The first sealing assembly has a signal generating element having an annular insert mounted externally on a shield facing the constant-velocity joint and extending axially projecting above part of an annular step formed, on the same side as the constant-velocity joint, on a radially outer side surface of the inner ring, in a position immediately adjacent to the sleeve portion of the first shield. The second sealing assembly includes a tubular support keyed onto the inner ring by its first end on the outside edge folded in the manner of an L and shaped to engage inside the annular insert.

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 shield that is coupled to a collar of the wheel hub unit. The sealing device having a cylindrical lateral mounting wall pressed into the collar, an annular seat with a blind end formed in the cylindrical lateral wall, and a sealing gasket positioned, inside the seat and compressed radially between the groove and the collar, and formed by a sealing compound to allow the formation of a bead against the cylindrical lateral wall in a transport and/or assembly configuration of the sealing device. The bead being movable into the seat by a scraping action exerted by the collar during the assembly of the shield.

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.
