A bearing providing a first ring assembly and a second ring assembly, the first ring assembly including at least a first ring and an outer cap reversibly fixed to first ring. The bearing further providing at least one sealing element mounted radially into a cylindrical surface of the first ring assembly and provided with a sealing lip in sliding frictional contact with the second ring assembly. The bearing including at least one adjusting shim mounted radially between the first and second ring assemblies, the adjusting shim being axially located between the outer cap of the first ring assembly and the sealing element; or between the first ring of the first ring assembly and the sealing element.

Bearing with at least one sealing element and at least one adjusting shim for axially displacing said sealing element

A slewing bearing includes first and second rings and rolling elements therebetween. The first ring has a shoulder, and a cap is fixed to the first ring that, with the shoulder, defines a radially outwardly facing circumferential groove. A sealing contact member is fixed to a surface of the second ring. A first seal is mounted in the groove, and a sealing member is mounted on the cap. The first seal and the sealing member each include a sealing lip in sliding frictional contact with the sealing contact member.

Slewing bearing with sealing arrangement

A slewing bearing including a first ring, a second ring, the first and second rings being in relative rotation around a rotation axis, at least one row of rolling elements arranged between the rings, and at least two seals having each an annular heel mounted on a cylindrical frontal surface of first ring, and an oblique sealing lip in sliding frictional contact with part of the second ring. The slewing bearing further includes a guiding ring axially arranged between the two seals. The guiding ring provides a flange that prevents the reversion of one sealing lip, and an annular axial collar that radially blocks the annular heel of the other seal in a radial outwards direction.

A slewing bearing providing a first ring, a second ring, the first and second rings being in relative rotation around a rotation axis, and at least one row of rolling elements arranged between the rings. The slewing bearing is further provided with a sealing device including at least one seal having an annular heel fixed to the first ring, and a sealing lip in sliding frictional contact with the second ring, and a deflector mounted to a lateral surface of second ring and having a deflecting part that at least partially radially surrounds the sealing lip.

A slewing bearing including a first ring, a second ring, the first and second rings being in relative rotation around a rotation axis, at least one row of rolling elements arranged between the rings, and at least one seal mounted in a circumferential groove of first ring. A cap is fixed to the first ring and provides a cap sealing member having an annular heel mounted in an circumferential slot formed on a frontal surface of cap, and a sealing lip projecting from the heel and towards the second ring. The sealing lip has a free end in sliding frictional contact with part of the second ring.

A bearing having an inner ring, an outer ring, and sealing means is provided. The bearing includes a complementary inflatable sealing device mounted on one of the rings and further includes a fixed annular part and a deformable annular portion coupled to the annular fixed part that can be deformed in a direction from a retracted position to a deployed position under the effect of a fluid and in the other direction towards its retracted position, at least one annular chamber for receiving the fluid, into which the orifice being formed between the fixed and deformable portions at least when the deformable annular portion is extended axially.

Bearing, notably for a vehicle

A slewing bearing, in particular for a vehicle, comprises an inner ring, an outer ring, at least one row of rolling elements disposed between the inner and outer rings, and a sealing feature that define between the rings a closed annular space within which the rolling elements are disposed. The bearing also comprises at least one seal that is fixed to the outer ring and comprises at least one sealing lip that is oriented towards the outside of the bearing, and at least one deflector that is fixed to the outer ring and comprises a deflecting part that is at least partially offset axially towards the outside with respect to the sealing lip of the seal.

Slewing bearing, in particular for a vehicle

A rolling bearing assembly comprising an inner ring, an outer ring, and at least one row of rolling elements located between raceways provided on each of the inner and outer rings. The rolling bearing assembly comprises an angular adjustment feature for angularly adjusting the inner ring relative to the outer ring, wherein the adjustment feature comprises at least one angular indexing finger extending radially from one of the inner ring and the outer ring towards the other of the inner ring and the outer ring and an arc-shaped stop for the angular indexing finger mounted on the other of the inner ring and the outer ring.

Rolling bearing with means for angularly adjusting of the inner ring relative to the outer ring

A rolling bearing assembly having a rotatable element that rotates with respect to a non-rotatable element around a central rotation axis is provided. The assembly includes rolling systems disposed between the rotatable and non-rotatable elements, the rolling systems having at least one rolling system providing rolling elements arranged along radial axes with respect to the rotation axis. The assembly has at least one elastic ring forming a raceway track mounted on the non-rotatable element so that the rolling elements cooperate with the elastic ring, the elastic ring in contact with the rolling elements by resilient elements mounted in holes distributed around the circumference of the non-rotatable element. The assembly has at least one blocking member mounted in the non rotatable element that protrudes in a hole of the elastic ring, the blocking member blocks the elastic ring from rotating around the central rotation axis with respect to the non-rotatable element.
