Abstract
A packing is mounted on a fixed ring of a rolling-contact bearing with rolling elements in contact with the fixed ring and a rotating ring. A sensor is supported by the packing and an encoder is mounted on the rotating ring. A protective casing for the sensor and its connection with a feed cable has a chamber extending axially, between a recess receiving the fixed ring and a bottom wall of the casing, for holding the cable. The resulting rolling-contact bearing assembly may include a winding cylinder and may include features permitting assembling together of a number of casings for different bearing assemblies.
