The rolling bearing comprises an inner ring, an outer ring, at least one row of rolling elements and at least one sealprovided between the outer and inner rings. The sealhas, in cross section, the overall shape of an H and comprises internal lipsand external lipsforming the two substantially parallel branches of the H. The inner and outer ringscomprise opposite radial ribslocated axially between the internal and external lipstoto axially retain the seal.

Seal for rolling bearing used in a wind turbine

A rolling-element bearing includes a first bearing ring () and a second bearing ring () opposing the first bearing () in a radial direction (). A sealing element () of the rolling-element bearing includes a radially-encircling seal support () extending in the radial direction () by a predetermined distance towards the second bearing ring (). The seal support () is interference-fit and removably attached to an axial end side () of the first bearing ring (). A sealing lip () is attached to the seal support () and extends from an end of the seal support () opposite the first bearing ring () in the radial direction () up to a mating surface (), which is part of the second bearing ring ().

Rolling element bearing having replaceable seal

A friction device for a bearing assembly includes an annular friction module defining a friction surface that extends around a revolution axis of the friction device and that is configured to lie against and to exert a friction torque on a cylindrical surface rotating with respect to the friction device, the friction surface being cylindrical before the friction device is mounted around the rotating cylindrical surface.

The rolling bearing comprises an inner ring, an outer ring, at least one row of rolling elements and at least one sealprovided between said outer and inner rings. The sealhas, in cross section, the overall shape of a H and comprises internal lipsand external lipsforming the two substantially parallel branches of said H. The inner and outer ringscomprise opposite radial ribslocated axially between the internal and external lipstoto axially retain the seal.
