Abstract: A wheel speed detector for detecting a relative rotating speed between an outer ring and an inner ring by means of a magnetic sensor in association with a magnetic ring. A stationary seal member is fixed to the stationary ring and a rotatable seal member is fixed to the rotatable ring. The seal members engage to seal a gap between the inner ring and the outer ring. The magnetic sensor is fixed to a radial inner surface of the stationary seal member and the magnetic ring is fixed to a radial outer or a radial inner surface of the rotatable seal member and surfaces of the magnetic ring other than that fixed to the radial inner surface of the rotatable seal member are covered with a seal lip.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a bearing device for supporting a pinion shaft so as to freely rotate with respect to a case. The bearing device comprises a first tilt-contact rolling bearing provided on the connecting-flange-side outer peripheral surface of the pinion shaft and a second tilt-contact rolling bearing formed from an angular ball bearing provided on the pinion-gear-side outer peripheral surface of the pinion shaft, wherein lines of action of the first and second tilt-contact rolling bearings intersect with one another on an outer diameter side, the connecting-flange-side end portion of the first tilt-contact rolling bearing and the pinion-gear-side end portion of the second tilt-contact rolling bearing are respectively sealed with seal members, a sealed space between the seal members is infilled with grease, and the connecting flange is fastened in the pinion-gear direction to thereby preload the first and second tilt-contact rolling bearings.

Abstract: This wheel speed detector is constructed of a magnetic sensor and a magnetic ring and is integrated with the inside of a seal device. The magnetic ring constitutes a part (core bar) of the seal device. This arrangement can enable the compacting and reduction in the number of components and improve space saving and assembling workability.

Abstract: In a tapered roller bearing having an outer ring whose outside diameter is D, an inner ring whose inside diameter is d, and a plurality of tapered rollers whose pitch circle diameter is dm, a setting is provided such that a PCD parameter expressed by 2 dm/(D+d) is a value which falls within the range of 0.96 to 0.985.

Abstract: According to this double row tapered roller bearing apparatus, an integral outer ring (2) is provided with oil vents (20) which extend from an inner peripheral face (17) in an area outward in an axial direction than a rolling face (2B) on which an axially outward row of conical rollers (7) rolls and passes through an outer peripheral face (18). Therefore, a portion of lubricating oil supplied from oil supply holes (13) in the integral outer ring (2) passes the oil vents (20) via the axially outward row of the conical rollers (7), and will be returned to a space in a housing (1) by way of a channel (31) in the housing (1). In conclusion, a circulating path of the lubricating oil through the outward row of the conical rollers (7) can be formed by the oil vents (20).

Abstract: A contact angle (&agr;) of a row of tapered rollers (7) on a pinion shaft 1 is set to be 30°, and made larger than a contact angle (&bgr;) of a row of tapered rollers (8) which is 20°. This decreases a distribution of load in a radial direction on the row of the tapered rollers (7), and increases a distribution of load in a radial direction on the row of the tapered rollers (8). In this manner, the load in the radial direction on the row of the tapered rollers (7) and the load in the radial direction on the row of the tapered rollers (8) are made close to each other, so that unbalance of the loads in the radial direction between the two rows of the tapered rollers (7, 8) can be moderated, thus improving the supporting rigidity and the life.
