[0037] Example 1

[0038] A wheel hub bearing with integrated sensor for a car comprises a bearing inner ring 2, a bearing outer ring 1 movably sleeved on the bearing inner ring 2, and a wheel hub flange 6 located on one side of the bearing outer ring 1 and embedded in the bearing inner ring 2. Figure 1 As shown;

[0039] The wheel hub bearing unit comprises a sensor 7;

[0040] Rolling bodies 3 and retaining frames 4 cooperating with the rolling bodies are provided between the bearing inner ring 2 and the bearing outer ring 1, and between the bearing outer ring 1 and the hub flange 6. Figure 1 As shown;

[0041] A sealing cover 8 is movably connected to one side of the bearing outer ring 1. Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown;

[0042] The inner side of the sealing cover 8 forms an inner concave structure. When the sealing cover 8 is disposed on one side of the bearing outer ring 1, a gap space 84 is formed between the inner concave structure and the bearing outer ring 1. Figure 1 As shown, the sensor 7 is connected to one side of the bearing inner ring 2 and is also located in the gap space 84;

[0043] Installing the sensor 7 in the gap space 84 can avoid damaging the circumferential side wall of the bearing outer ring 1 to achieve the installation of the sensor 7, thereby preventing the lubricating fluid in the hub bearing from leaking from the opening where the sensor 7 is installed.

[0044] The inner side of the sealing cover 8 is formed with a plug-in flange 82. Figure 1 As shown;

[0045] A first gap 85 is formed between the bearing outer ring 1 and the bearing inner ring 2 for the insertion flange 82 to enter. Figure 1 As shown;

[0046] By inserting the plug-in flange 82 into the first gap 82, the sealing cover 8 is installed on one side of the bearing outer ring 1;

[0047] Furthermore, the outer side wall of the plug-in flange 82 is interference fit with the inner side wall of the bearing outer ring 1;

[0048] The interference fit between the outer wall of the insert flange 82 and the inner wall of the bearing outer ring 1 can increase the connection stability between the sealing cover 8 and the bearing outer ring 1 .

[0049] In this embodiment, an outer side wall of the plug-in flange 82 is formed with a chamfer 83 at one end. Figure 1 As shown;

[0050] The chamfer 83 can facilitate the insertion of the plug-in flange 82 into the first gap 85, thereby assisting the insertion.

[0051] In this embodiment, a semi-open slot 81 is formed on the inner side wall of the bearing outer ring 1. Figure 1 , Figure 4 as well as Figure 5 As shown;

[0052] The side surface of the plug-in flange 82 is formed with a notch corresponding to the semi-open card slot 81;

[0053] After the plug-in flange 82 is inserted into the first gap 85, the sealing cover 8 can be rotated to rotate the slot, so that the semi-open slot 81 fits into the slot to achieve the snap connection;

[0054] The connection stability between the sealing cover 8 and the bearing outer ring 1 can be further improved by the engagement between the notch and the semi-open slot 81 .

[0055] The sensor 7 includes a magnetic ring 71 and a sleeve structure 72;

[0056] Figure 3 A partial cross section of the sensor 7 is shown, wherein the magnetic ring 71 is located at the front end of the sensor 7, and the sleeve structure 72 has a certain length;

[0057] The sensor 7 is sleeved on one side of the bearing inner ring 2 through a sleeve structure 72. Figure 1 As shown;

[0058] The inner wall of the sleeve structure 72 is interference-fitted with the outer wall of the bearing inner ring 2, so that the sensor 7 is stably connected to the bearing inner ring 2;

[0059] The sleeve structure 72 has a certain length, which further improves the connection stability between the sensor 7 and the bearing inner ring 2.

[0060] In this embodiment, a mounting hole is formed through the surface of the sealing cover 8;

[0061] The mounting holes include a first mounting hole 86 and a second mounting hole 87. Figure 1 As shown;

[0062] Providing the first mounting hole 86 and the second mounting hole 87 can increase the assembly range of the wheel hub bearing.

[0063] In this embodiment, the circumferential outer side wall of the bearing outer ring 1 is provided with a first flange 11. Figure 1 As shown;

[0064] The bearing outer ring 1 and the first flange 11 are formed integrally.

[0065] In this embodiment, the hub flange 6 is embedded in the center hole of the bearing inner ring 2;

[0066] The distal end of the hub flange 6, that is, the end passing through the central hole of the bearing inner ring 2, is formed with a flange structure 62, such as Figure 1 As shown, it is used to increase the connection stability between the hub flange 6 and the bearing inner ring 2;

[0067] A sealing ring 5 is provided between the hub flange 6 and the bearing outer ring 1;

[0068] Furthermore, the sealing ring 5 is located on the inner side of the joint between the hub flange 6 and the bearing outer ring 1, as shown in FIG. Figure 1 As shown;

[0069] In this embodiment, the cross section of the sealing ring 5 is two connected "in" shaped structures, such as Figure 1 As shown, the shape of the sealing ring 5 can effectively improve the sealing performance and effectively prevent external pollutants from entering the wheel hub bearing.

[0070] Example 2

[0071] This embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that, in this embodiment, the cross section of the sealing ring 5 is an "In"-shaped structure.

[0072] The above are only specific embodiments of the present invention, but the technical features of the present invention are not limited thereto. Any simple changes, equivalent replacements or modifications made based on the present invention to achieve basically the same technical effects are all included in the protection scope of the present invention.
