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).

A sealing arrangement for a wheel bearing having a first component against a second component which is rotatable relative thereto, the sealing arrangement having a first seal arranged on the first component and a second seal arranged on the second component, the first seal has at least one opening for the passage of air at least in a sealing chamber formed spatially between the two seals, and a fabric element is provided to at least partially expand upon contact with water and thereby to seal the at least one opening

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.

A nipple for spoked wheels of the tubeless type comprises a first and a second shoulder which are formed on a rod with a blind axial hole which is internally threaded at an end of the rod which is distal from the opening of the axial hole and in a zone of the rod which is proximal with respect to the opening, respectively. A first recess for a sealing ring is formed on the rod behind the first shoulder and at least a second recess for a second sealing ring is formed on the rod between the first recess and the second shoulder.

A sealing device for a hub/wheel assembly with a roller bearing. The sealing device includes a guard, made of plastic. The guard is coupled to an outer ring of the bearing to seal off the bearing. The guard has a cylindrical mounting wall with an outer lateral surface coupled to an inner lateral surface of a collar of the outer ring, and a snap-engagement step for engaging with the collar made along the outer lateral surface so that it snap-fits in a contoured annular groove made along the collar about the axis. An annular gasket is made of elastomer and co-injection-molded inside an annular groove made in the cylindrical mounting wall on the same side as the snap-engagement step.

A sealing device for a hub/wheel assembly with a roller bearing, the sealing device comprising a guard, made of plastic, which is coupled to an outer ring of the bearing so as to seal off the bearing, and which has a cylindrical mounting wall having an outer lateral surface coupled to an inner lateral surface of a collar of the outer ring. The sealing device includes a snap-engagement tooth for engaging with the collar made along the outer lateral surface so that the snap-engagement tooth snap-fits in a contoured annular groove made along the collar about the axis and an annular gasket made of thermoplastic elastomer being co-injection-molded inside a gripping seat made in the cylindrical mounting wall on the same side as the snap-engagement tooth, substantially at a corner defined between the cylindrical mounting wall and an annular reading wall transverse to the cylindrical mounting wall.

A drive device for driving and rotating a wheel includes an axle shaft, a hub to which rotation of the axle shaft is conveyed, a plurality of fasteners for securing the wheel to the hub, a wet brake, a housing, an oil seal, and a cover. The wet brake is configured to restrain the rotation of the axle shaft. The housing accommodates the axle shaft and the wet brake. The oil seal is disposed between the housing and a part of the hub that is disposed inward of the fasteners in a radial direction of the hub. The cover has an annular shape. The cover is disposed in a space formed between the hub and the housing, and is secured to the housing. The cover is configured to cover the plurality of fasteners.

The invention relates to a wheel bearing unit including a wheel hub. The wheel hub has an integrally formed wheel flange at one end and an inner ring which can be rotated together with the wheel hub. The inner ring is secured on the wheel hub by a rolling rivet connection in order to pretension a row of rolling elements relative to an outer ring. The wheel bearing unit also has an encoder, which is provided on the inner ring and extends radially in the direction of the outer ring, and a protective cover which is secured to the outer ring in order to close and seal annular openings that are formed between the outer ring and the wheel hub. A cylindrical mounting section of the protective cover is pressed into a cylindrical press-in portion of the outer ring, and a shielding section extends from the cylindrical assembly portion inwards in a radial direction (R1). A base section is provided which adjoins the shielding section in order to cover an inner-side end of the wheel hub, and a sealing element is provided on a circumferential surface, which faces away from the outer ring, of the cylindrical assembly portion. The sealing element is formed such that a part of the sealing element protrudes from the mounting section in the axial direction (R2) in order to form a sealing lip which is pressed axially onto a section of the outer ring in order to sealingly rest against this section.
