Sealing assembly for a rolling bearing
View Patent ↗A sealing assembly for a rolling bearing. The sealing assembly has at least one cover element for covering a bearing gap along a cover plane. The cover element has a securing section, a sealing collar, a base part connecting the securing section and the sealing collar, and at least one sealing surface provided on the sealing collar for non-contact sealing. At a starting section the sealing collar extends from the base part diagonally toward the inner side of the cover element facing the bearing interior and at an end section the sealing collar extends from the inside toward the outer side of the cover element facing away from the bearing interior. At the same time, the sealing collar forms a sealing surface substantially perpendicular to the cover plane and at the end of the end section at least one edge impeding the inflow of impurities into the bearing interior.
1. A sealing assembly for a rolling bearing, comprising:
at least one covering element for covering a bearing gap along a covering plane orthogonal to an axis for the rolling bearing, wherein the covering element has, for securing purposes:
a securing section;
a sealing collar;
a base part connecting the securing section and the sealing collar; and
at least one sealing surface on the sealing collar for non-contact sealing,
wherein:
the sealing collar has an initial section that runs obliquely from the base part in a direction of an inner side of the covering element, which faces a bearing interior;
the sealing collar has an end section, radially inward of the initial section, that extends from the inner side in a direction of an outer side of the covering element, which faces away from the bearing interior and forms a first sealing surface substantially perpendicular to the covering plane;
the sealing collar includes a central section:
connecting the initial section with the end section; and,
with a second sealing surface continuous with the first sealing surface and facing the bearing interior; and,
at an end of the end section, the sealing collar forms at least one edge that impedes entry of impurities into the bearing interior;
wherein:
an entirety of the central section is oblique to the covering plane; or,
an entirety of the central section is parallel to the covering plane; and,
wherein:
the sealing collar has a profile with a substantially U-shaped cross-section;
the initial section of the sealing collar forms a first U leg;
the end section of the sealing collar forms a second U leg;
the central section forms a U base, which points toward the inner side of the covering element; the U base adjoins the first U leg at a right angle or substantially at a right angle; and,
the second sealing surface faces the inner side of the covering element and slopes obliquely toward the covering plane.
2. A sealing assembly for a rolling bearing, comprising:
at least one covering element for covering a bearing gap along a covering plane orthogonal to an axis for the rolling bearing, wherein the covering element has, for securing purposes:
a securing section;
a sealing collar;
a base part connecting the securing section and the sealing collar; and
at least one sealing surface on the sealing collar for non-contact sealing,
wherein:
the sealing collar has an initial section that runs obliquely from the base part in a direction of an inner side of the covering element, which faces a bearing interior;
the sealing collar has an end section, radially inward of the initial section, that extends from the inner side in a direction of an outer side of the covering element, which faces away from the bearing interior and forms a first sealing surface substantially perpendicular to the covering plane;
the sealing collar includes a central section:
connecting the initial section with the end section; and,
with a second sealing surface continuous with the first sealing surface and facing the bearing interior; and,
at an end of the end section, the sealing collar forms at least one edge that impedes entry of impurities into the bearing interior;
wherein:
an entirety of the central section is oblique to the covering plane; or,
an entirety of the central section is parallel to the covering plane; and,
wherein the central section together with the end section forms an L profile with an obtuse-angled cross-section.
