  • Patent number: 6695484
    Abstract: Device (1) for measuring the angular speed of rolling contact bearings (2) presenting a protective shield (5) which is mounted onto the rolling contact bearing (2), a phonic wheel (6) which is mounted under the protective shield (5), and a sensor (7), which is mounted onto a stud (8) which is outside the rolling contact bearing (2) and which is provided with an external frontal surface (11) which faces the phonic wheel (6); the protective shield (5) is defined by a rigid wall (18), which is mounted onto a fixed race of the rolling contact bearing (2), and which is provided with at least one passing housing (22) for housing the frontal surface (11) of the sensor (7) and for isolating the frontal surface (11) itself from the outside by means of a rubber membrane (23) which is suitable for remaining in direct contact with the frontal surface (11).

  • Patent number: 6682221
    Abstract: Sealing device (1) for a rolling bearing (2) which is provided with an inner race (5), which is axially blocked by a blocking element (4) which is suitable for being arranged in direct contact with a feedback element (6); the sealing device presents a support element (9) which is mounted on the inner race (5), an encoder wheel (8) which is installed on the inner race (5) and which is an integral part of the support element (9) itself, and a static sealing element (10), which is also an integral part of the support element (9) and which, in turn, presents two lips (21, 22) which are substantially parallel in relation to each other and which extend opposite the support element (9), a first lip (21) of the two lips (21, 22) extends towards the feedback element (6) and comes into contact with it, and a second lip (22) of the two lips (21, 22) extends towards a frontal surface of the inner race (5) and comes into contact with it.
