Patent number: 8328428Abstract: A hub-bearing assembly serves to rotatably mount a soil-working disc (D) on a supporting axle (A) of an agricultural machine. The assembly comprises a hub-bearing unit (10) and a sealing device (20). The a hub-bearing unit has a radially outer, rotatable outer race (11) from one side of which a flange (12) radially extends for mounting a disc (D). The sealing device (20) is mounted on a side of the hub-bearing unit opposite to the side of the flange (12). The radially outer surface of the assembly has a portion (38) intermediate the flange (12) and the side of the sealing device (20), which is radially recessed so as to serve as a preferential seat for winding wires picked up from the fields during use of the agricultural machine.Type: GrantFiled: May 24, 2007Date of Patent: December 11, 2012Assignee: Aktiebolaget SKFInventors: Ove L. Andersson, Lorenzo Dellamore, Gianmario Fadda, Maurizio Giovannelli, Mauro Sassi, Stefano Urso, Wolfgang Husslein, Cristian Concu

Patent number: 7628541Abstract: Sealing device (1) for a wheel hub group (2) which is connected to a differential device, and which is provided with a rolling contact bearing (3), the sealing device being provided with a first shield (6) which is shrink-fit onto an inner race (4) of the rolling contact bearing (3), and an encoder (7) which is integral with the first shield (6) in order to generate a signal for reading the functioning kinematic parameters of the wheel hub group (2), and is also provided with a second shield (8) which is shrink-fit onto an outer race (5) of the rolling contact bearing (3) in a position which is opposite to and which is also external to the inner shield; a static sealing element (12) is integral with the second shield (8), and is also arranged in contact with a containing box of the differential in order to define a watertight chamber (14) in order to provide a reading surface of a reading sensor (11) which can read the signal which is generated by the encoder itself.Type: GrantFiled: April 27, 2005Date of Patent: December 8, 2009Assignee: Aktiebolaget SKFInventors: Angelo Vignotto, Claudio Savarese, Gianmario Fadda, Massimo Russo
