Abstract: The rolling bearing device (1), in particular for a motor vehicle steering column, comprises an outer race (2), an inner race (3), rolling elements (4) placed between the outer race (2) and inner race (3). The inner race comprises a plurality of retaining tongues (6) directed radially inwards suitable for coming into contact with a tube or a shaft (7).

Abstract: The rolling bearing device comprises an outer ring (11), an inner ring (10) comprising a bore (10a) for mounting the device on a shaft, and at least one row of rolling elements (14) positioned between the rings. The bore (10a) comprises weakening means (23) that locally reduce the mechanical strength of the inner ring in respect of radial stressing. The weakening means (23) between them delimit contact surfaces where the bore (10a) makes contact with the shaft, running at least in the circumferential direction. The outer ring (11) comprises a casing, two attached raceways (12, 13) positioned in the casing, and an elastic ring (16) pressing against the casing and one of the raceways (12).

Abstract: A rolling bearing assembly is for supporting an automotive vehicle steering shaft. The bearing assembly includes an outer ring, an inner ring, and a plurality of rolling elements disposed between the outer and the inner rings. A substantially flat retainer ring formed of an electrically conductive material is disposed within the inner ring. The retainer ring has axially elastic means with substantially axially projecting tongues, each tongue having a first surface portion configured to contact the inner ring and a second surface portion configured to contact a shaft or a tube.
