Abstract: A bearing with integrated data sensor has a stationary bearing ring, a rotatable bearing ring, and rolling elements in contact with the bearing rings. An encoder is mounted on the rotatable bearing ring, and a sealing gasket is mounted on the stationary bearing ring. A sleeve for protection of a sensor cable is integrally connected to the sealing gasket and has a groove for housing a sensor means which is connected to the sensor cable. The sleeve has a wall of its extremity which is substantially perpendicular to an external side of the sealing gasket through which the sensor cable exits such that it is tangential to said external side of the sealing gasket.

Abstract: A seal with internal reinforcement is mountable on a stationary ring of a bearing, an insulating film with conductive tracks being fixed to the reinforcement. A sensor element, for sensing an encoder element carried by a rotating ring of the bearing, contacts the insulating film and the conductive tracks. Constitutive material of the seal covers at least a portion of the reinforcement and the insulating film and provides protection for the conductive tracks and sensor element. Connecting devices for passing wiring through the reinforcement are also described.

Abstract: A disk mountable on a rotating support has one side at least partially covered with an elastomer loaded with magnetic particles to form an encoder while the other side of said disk axially limits an annular chamber. A sealing structure attached to the disk and contained within the plane of a lateral side of a support capable of supporting a non-rotating component of the seal with incorporated encoder is mountable within an annular cavity which is axially limited by the plane.

Abstract: An antifriction bearing assembly comprises a stationary outer race and a rotatable inner race with two annular rows of rolling elements between the races. A sensor assembly is mounted in the outer race so as to position a sensor between the races and the two rows of rolling elements, and an encoder is mounted on the inner race between the rows of rolling elements. Several sensor assembly and encoder configurations are included.

Abstract: An antifriction bearing for mounting in a housing bore. The antifriction bearing has a groove in one of the peripheral surfaces of the outer race, an annular encoder rotatable with the inner race, a sensor support including an arcuate band having an axially extending lip which matingly engages the groove in the outer race and a sensor removably attached to the sensor support.

Abstract: An encoder ring with multiple North and South poles around its circumference is connected to the rotatable race of a bearing assembly for rotation with the rotatable race. A sensor is connected to the fixed race. The encoder ring is kept in slidable contact with the sensor. The slidable contact is maintained by a flexible member which keeps the encoder ring in slidable contact with the sensor.

Abstract: The bearing has an encorder as a source of a magnetic field and a sensor for detecting the magnetic field. The bearing has a fixed ring and a rotating ring spaced from the fixed ring. A support is mounted on each ring. The encoder is mounted on one support; the sensor is mounted on the other support. A seal is also mounted on one of the supports. The seal is in sealing contact with the other support.

Abstract: A bearing with a rotating ring and a radially spaced fixed ring is mounted in the bore of a housing. A seal extends radially across the annulus between the bearing rings. An information sensor support is mounted in the housing and located adjacent one axial end of the bearing. The information sensor mounted in the information sensor support faces the seal. The seal has an axial portion with circumferentially separated holes. The axial portion extends toward the information sensor. The annular information sensor support has an axial portion extending toward the seal. This axial portion has a plurality of circumferentially separated radially extending retainers which pass through the seal holes and into an annular groove formed on the inside surface of the fixed ring.
