A rolling-element bearing transmission includes a first rolled-on element, at least one second rolled-on element and a third rolled-on element. Each of the rolled-on elements has a raceway configured to support a plurality of rolling elements. A first set of rolling elements is disposed between the first rolled-on element and the at least one second rolled-on element and a second set of rolling elements is disposed between the at least one second and the third rolled-on elements. Each of the rolled-on elements comprises or supports at least one transmission element, and the at least one transmission elements are disposed and configured to form a transmission.

A rolling-element bearing transmission includes a rotor configured to rotate a shaft relative to a stator and a rotatable output ring that includes a first rolled-on surface element. The shaft includes at least one second rolled-on surface element, and the stator includes a third rolled-on surface element. First and second pluralities of rolling elements are located between the shaft and the stator and between the shaft and the output ring. Also, a transmission mechanism transmits a rotary motion of the shaft to the output ring with a speed reduction such that the output ring rotates at a lower speed than the shaft.

In the present invention, in a housing that supports a rotating shaft via a rolling bearing which is subjected to predetermined position precompression, a wedge member, the radial thickness of which increases from the leading end towards the base end thereof, is inserted between the housing and the outer circumferential surface of the outer race of the rolling bearing and between the rotating shaft and the inner circumferential surface of an inner race of the rolling bearing, the wedge member being inserted from the leading end thereof along the radial direction of the rotating shaft. The wedge member is fixed by being fastened, ahead in the insertion direction, by bolts and nuts, so that precompression force along with predetermined position precompression is imparted to the rolling bearing.

A bearing device (1) for a vehicle wheel provided with: an outer member (2); and an inner member comprising a hub wheel (3), and at least one inner wheel (4) press-fitted into the small-diameter ridge (3A) of the hub wheel (3); wherein a belt-shaped part (2F) that radially protrudes by a protrusion amount (P1) is formed over a prescribed width (W1) in the outer peripheral surface of the outer member (2) so that at least part of the belt-shaped part (2F) radially overlaps the outside rolling surface (2D) which is on the vehicle-wheel-attachment-flange-facing side of the outer member (2). The present invention addresses the problem of providing a bearing device for a vehicle wheel in which the amount of deformation in an opening of an outer member can be reduced and decreases in rolling fatigue service life can be prevented while keeping overall weight increase to a minimum.
