Abstract
A transmission assembly for vehicles, including a rolling bearing having a sealing device composed of a first annular screen coupled with a stationary outer ring of the bearing and a second annular screen coupled with a rotating inner ring of the bearing. Radially outer first and second L-shaped portions of the first and second screens project axially from the bearing and towards a constant velocity joint, the first L-shaped portion having a first and a second annular lip which form with the second L-shaped portion a radial sequence of labyrinth seals. A third annular sealing lip may be arranged radially downstream of the sequence of labyrinth seals and cooperates in sliding contact with the second screen. An encoder may be mounted on the second L-shaped portion and may have an annular overhang which forms with the first lip a first labyrinth seal.
