Publication number: 20020066185Abstract: A hub bearing unit comprises a rotatable annular element (11) for mounting a wheel, and a stationary annular element (13) to be mounted to the vehicle and defining a rotation axis (x) for the rotatable element (11). The rotatable element has a radial flange (11b) with a radial surface (11c) for axially resting against a brake rotor (16). The stationary element (13) is held in a determined position by means of non rotating retaining means (120, 121) of a machining apparatus to orient the rotation axis (x) in a determined direction.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 25, 2002Publication date: June 6, 2002Applicant: SKF INDUSTRIE S.p.A.Inventors: Jean Gerard Loustanau, Domenico Ducci, Marcus Caldana

Patent number: 5927820Abstract: A hub-wheel assembly having a rolling bearing wherein the rolling bodies roll between an inner ring having a flange for connection to the wheel and to the brake disk, and an outer ring having a flange for connection to the suspension upright. The bearing has an applied element in turn having two ears for connection of the brake calipers, and which is connected peripherally to the flange of the outer ring; and the applied element and the flange of the outer ring are made angularly integral with each other by pins engaging respective holes formed partly along the edge of the applied element and partly along the mating edge of the flange of the outer ring.Type: GrantFiled: July 1, 1997Date of Patent: July 27, 1999Assignee: SKF Industrie S.p.A.Inventors: Angelo Vignotto, Domenico Ducci, Paolo Bertetti, Stefano Bertalmio
