[0034] like Figures 1 to 6As shown, the hub bearing unit body 5 includes a bearing outer ring 501 and a bearing inner ring 502. The bearing outer ring 501 is located outside the end of the hub connecting sleeve 1, and the bearing inner ring 502 is located outside the end of the hub bearing bracket connecting sleeve 2.

A plurality of first bearing rollers 515 and a second bearing roller 516 are provided between the first sealing end ring 503, the second sealing end ring 504 and the bearing outer ring 501 and the bearing inner ring 502. Two bearing rollers 516, the first bearing roller 515 is clamped on the inner side of the first roller clamping groove 508, and the second bearing roller 516 is clamped on the inner side of the second roller clamping groove 509. The end faces of the first sealing end ring 503 and the second sealing end ring 504 that are in contact with the bearing outer ring 501 and the bearing inner ring 502 are both provided with sealing ring grooves 513, and the inner side of the sealing ring grooves 513 is clamped with a sealing ring 514. The first sealing end ring 503 and the second sealing end ring 504 are used to limit the position of the first bearing roller 515 and the second bearing roller 516, and the first bearing roller 515, the second bearing roller 516, the first sealing end ring 503 and the second sealing end ring 504 are used to connect and drive the bearing outer ring 501 and the bearing inner ring 502, ensuring that the first sealing end ring 503 and the second sealing end ring 504 are relatively stationary during the process in which the hub connecting sleeve 1 drives the bearing outer ring 501 to rotate and the hub bearing bracket connecting sleeve 2 drives the bearing inner ring 502 to rotate.

[0035] The first sealing end ring 503 and the second sealing end ring 504 are both provided with positioning guide surfaces 518 on the outer and inner sides of the ends thereof located between the bearing outer ring 501 and the bearing inner ring 502. The inclination angle of the positioning guide surfaces 518 is five degrees. When the first sealing end ring 503 and the second sealing end ring 504 are inserted between the bearing outer ring 501 and the bearing inner ring 502, the positioning guide surfaces 518 provided at the ends thereof can contact the first bearing roller 515 and the second bearing roller 516 and push the first bearing roller 515 and the second bearing roller 516 to move, so that the first bearing roller 515 and the second bearing roller 516 drive the bearing outer ring 501 and the bearing inner ring 502 to move, thereby realizing the center positioning of the bearing outer ring 501 and the bearing inner ring 502.

[0036] The outer surface of the first sealing end ring 503 is penetrated by a plurality of first splicing holes 506, and the outer surface of the second sealing end ring 504 is penetrated by a plurality of second splicing holes 517. The first splicing holes 506 and the second splicing holes 517 are distributed in a circular array around the axis of the first sealing end ring 503 and the second sealing end ring 504, and the number of the first splicing holes 506 and the second splicing holes 517 are the same and correspond one to one. The inner side of the first splicing holes 506 and the second splicing holes 517 with the same axis is installed with a sealing connector 512.

The ring 504 is connected and fixed by a sealing connector 512, and the first sealing end ring 503 and the second sealing end ring 504 are installed on the ends of the bearing outer ring 501 and the bearing inner ring 502 through the sealing connector 512 to achieve the overall sealing of the integrated hub bearing unit. After the sealing connector 512 is removed from the inside of the first sealing end ring 503 and the second sealing end ring 504, the first sealing end ring 503 and the second sealing end ring 504 can be separated from the bearing outer ring 501 and the bearing inner ring 502, and the entire integrated hub bearing unit can be disassembled.

[0037] like Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the sealing connection member 512 includes a fixed connection sleeve 5121 and a fixed connection screw 5122. The fixed connection sleeve 5121 is inserted into the inner side of the first splicing hole 506, and the fixed connection screw 5122 is inserted into the inner side of the second splicing hole 517. The fixed connection sleeve 5121 is provided with a connecting threaded hole 5123 at the end facing the fixed connection screw 5122. One end of the fixed connection screw 5122 is inserted into the inner side of the connecting threaded hole 5123 and is connected to the fixed connection sleeve 5121 through a thread. The outer surface of the large end of the fixed connection sleeve 5121 is provided with a first sealing groove 5124. The inner side of the first sealing groove 5124 is clamped with a first sealing gasket 5125. A second sealing groove 5126 is provided on the outer surface of the large end of the screw 5122, and a second sealing gasket 5127 is clamped on the inner side of the second sealing groove 5126. The fixed connecting sleeve 5121 and the fixed connecting screw 5122 are connected and locked by threads, and the fixed connecting sleeve 5121 and the fixed connecting screw 5122 are ensured to tighten the first sealing end ring 503 and the second sealing end ring 504, and the gaps between the fixed connecting sleeve 5121 and the first sealing end ring 503, and the gaps between the fixed connecting screw 5122 and the second sealing end ring 504 are filled by the first sealing gasket 5125 and the second sealing gasket 5127 to ensure the internal sealing of the integrated hub bearing unit.

[0038] like Figure 9As shown, the interior of the first sealing end ring 503 is penetrated by a mounting hole 519, and an ABS sensor 505 is mounted inside the mounting hole 519. The ABS sensor 505 includes an external transmission harness 5051, and a sealing connection terminal 5052 is fixed at one end of the external transmission harness 5051. The sealing connection terminal 5052 is located inside the mounting hole 519, and the sealing connection terminal 5052 is located inside the mounting hole 519. The inner end is detachably mounted with a sensor connecting wire 5053, one end of the sensor connecting wire 5053 passes through the mounting hole 519 and extends between the first sealing end ring 503 and the second sealing end ring 504, a sensor body 5054 is fixed to this end of the sensor connecting wire 5053, the sensor body 5054 is in contact with the first sealing end ring 503 and the second sealing end ring 504, the sensor body 5054 is mounted between the first sealing end ring 503 and the second sealing end ring 504, to ensure that the sensor body 5054 is relatively stationary during the operation of the integrated hub bearing unit, and the external transmission harness 5051 does not rotate due to the operation of the integrated hub bearing unit, thereby preventing the external transmission harness 5051 from being entangled or pulled and broken due to rotation.

[0039] The end portion of the sensor connecting wire 5053 connected to the sealed connecting terminal 5052 is spiral-shaped, and the length of the sensor connecting wire 5053 is greater than the length of the mounting hole 519, ensuring that when the sealed connecting terminal 5052 is separated from the inside of the mounting hole 519, the end portion of the sensor connecting wire 5053 can be pulled out synchronously without pulling the sensor body 5054.

[0040] like Figure 10As shown, the outer surface of the first sealing end ring 503 is further provided with a lubricating oil filling structure 507, which includes a filling hole 5071. The filling hole 5071 does not penetrate the first sealing end ring 503. The inner surface of the filling hole 5071 is provided with two filling connecting holes 5075. One end of the filling connecting hole 5075 penetrates the first sealing end ring 503. A sliding sealing sleeve 5072 is slidably installed on the inner side of the filling hole 5071. The inner side of the sliding sealing sleeve 5072 is provided with a filling docking hole 5076. The inner surface of the filling docking hole 5076 is provided with two adding liquid grooves 5073. The adding liquid grooves 5073 penetrate the sliding sealing sleeve 5072. The shell corresponds to the position of the filling connecting hole 5075, and a sealing spring 5074 is fixed between the sliding sealing sleeve 5072 and the inner end face of the filling hole 5071. After the sliding sealing sleeve 5072 is squeezed into the filling hole 5071, the addition liquid tank 5073 is connected with the filling connecting hole 5075. At this time, lubricant can be added between the first sealing end ring 503, the bearing outer ring 501, and the bearing inner ring 502 through the addition docking hole 5076, the addition liquid tank 5073 and the filling connecting hole 5075. The addition of lubricant is completed without disassembling the integrated hub bearing unit, thereby ensuring that the integrated hub bearing unit has sufficient lubrication.

[0041] Working principle: When assembling the integrated hub bearing unit, first place the bearing outer ring 501 on the table, then place the bearing inner ring 502 inside the bearing outer ring 501, and clamp the first bearing roller 515 into the inside of the first roller clamping groove 508, and clamp the second bearing roller 516 into the inside of the second roller clamping groove 509, and then insert the end of the second sealing end ring 504 with the positioning guide surface 518 between the bearing outer ring 501 and the bearing inner ring 502. When the second sealing end ring 504 is inserted, the positioning guide surface 518 is aligned with the first bearing. The roller 515 and the second bearing roller 516 come into contact. At this time, the first bearing roller 515 and the second bearing roller 516 are squeezed and enter the first roller groove 508 and the second roller groove 509, pushing the bearing outer ring 501 and the bearing inner ring 502 to move on the table until the second sealing end ring 504 contacts all the first bearing rollers 515 and the second bearing rollers 516. At this time, the centers of the hub connecting sleeve 1 and the hub bearing bracket connecting sleeve 2 coincide, and the fixing screw 5122 is inserted into the inner side of the second splicing hole 517;

[0042] At this time, the bearing outer ring 501, the bearing inner ring 502, and the second sealing end ring 504 are turned over so that the second sealing end ring 504 contacts the desktop, and one end of the sensor connecting wire 5053 is passed through the mounting hole 519 to connect with the sensor main body 5054. Subsequently, the other end of the sensor connecting wire 5053 is assembled with the sealing connection terminal 5052, and the sensor connecting wire 5053 is received into the mounting hole 519. The end of the mounting hole 519 is sealed with the sealing connection terminal 5052, and finally, the external transmission harness 5051 is connected to the sealing connection terminal 5052. At this time, the first sealing end ring 503 is inserted between the bearing outer ring 501 and the bearing inner ring 502 until the first sealing end ring 503 contacts the bearing outer ring 501 and the bearing inner ring 502. At this time, the sensor main body 5054 is sandwiched between the first sealing end ring 503 and the second sealing end ring 504.

[0043] Next, insert the fixed connecting sleeve 5121 into the first splicing hole 506 so that the connecting threaded hole 5123 at the end of the fixed connecting sleeve 5121 contacts the end of the fixing connecting screw 5122. Stand the bearing outer ring 501, the bearing inner ring 502, the first sealing end ring 503, and the second sealing end ring 504 upright and perpendicular to the table. Use a tool to tighten the fixed connecting sleeve 5121 and the fixing connecting screw 5122 so that the end of the fixing connecting screw 5122 enters the inner side of the connecting threaded hole 5123. At this time, the fixed connecting sleeve 5121 and the fixing connecting screw 5122 approach each other and enter the inner sides of the first splicing hole 506 and the second splicing hole 517 until the large ends of the fixed connecting sleeve 5121 and the fixing connecting screw 5122 contact the inner end surfaces of the first splicing hole 506 and the second splicing hole 517 respectively. The assembly of the integrated hub bearing unit is completed. Then, assemble the hub connecting sleeve 1, the hub bearing bracket connecting sleeve 2 and the hub bearing unit body 5.

[0044] When the sensor body 5054 fails or is damaged during use and needs to be replaced, or when the first bearing roller 515 and the second bearing roller 516 are damaged and need to be replaced, it is only necessary to remove the hub connecting sleeve 1 and the hub bearing bracket connecting sleeve 2 from the connecting part, and then separate the fixed connecting sleeve 5121 and the fixed connecting screw 5122 to separate the first sealing end ring 503 from the second sealing end ring 504. After the first sealing end ring 503 and the second sealing end ring 504 are separated, the first sealing end ring 503 and the second sealing end ring 504 are replaced. By pulling the two sealing end rings 504, the first sealing end ring 503 and the second sealing end ring 504 can be separated from the bearing outer ring 501 and the bearing inner ring 502, exposing the sensor body 5054, the first bearing roller 515 and the second bearing roller 516. At this time, the sensor body 5054, the first bearing roller 515 and the second bearing roller 516 can be directly replaced, which facilitates the inspection, maintenance or replacement of the sensor body 5054, reduces the difficulty of operation and improves the maintenance and repair efficiency of the integrated hub bearing unit.

[0045] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above and that the invention can be embodied in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of the invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as illustrative and non-restrictive, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims, not the foregoing description, and all variations within the meaning and range of equivalents of the claims are intended to be included therein. Any reference sign in a claim should not be construed as limiting the claim to which it relates.
