Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A flanged bearing ring ( 10 ) for the wheel of a motor vehicle includes two different materials joined as a single piece: a tubular core ( 15 ) and an outer body ( 16 ) around the core. The outer body forms a radial flange ( 17 ) and is made of a lighter material than that of the core. At the axially outer end of the ring, at the side where the flange ( 17 ) is provided, the interface surfaces between the external body ( 16 ) and the core ( 15 ) terminate in a groove ( 21 ) formed partly in the outer body and partly in the core. The groove ( 21 ) accommodates a sealing ring of polymeric material ( 22 ) which is cast and continuously covers a circular separation line ( 23 ) at the axially outer end of the interface between the core ( 15 ) and the outer body ( 16 ).
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
We claim: 1. A flanged bearing ring for a motor vehicle wheel, wherein the flanged bearing ring comprises two different materials joined together as a single piece, the flanged bearing ring comprising: a radially inner tubular or annular core which forms an axially inner raceway around a central axis of rotation, the radially inner tubular or annular core providing a radially outer surface and being made of a first material having a high toughness; and a radially outer body whic…
