20100074568 | Wheel Bearing Apparatus For A Vehicle - A vehicle wheel bearing apparatus has an outer member, an inner member double row rolling elements, and a constant velocity universal joint. A wheel hub of the inner member and an outer joint member of the constant velocity universal joint are axially separably connected. The outer joint member shoulder portion abuts against a caulked portion of the wheel hub. A cap is interposed between the caulked portion and the shoulder portion. The cap is press-formed from a steel plate and has a surface roughness of 0.63 Ra or less. | 03-25-2010 |
20110194797 | Wheel Bearing Apparatus For A Vehicle - A vehicle wheel bearing apparatus has an outer member, an inner member and double row rolling elements. A wheel mounting flange is integrally formed on a driving side of the inner member for mounting a wheel via a brake rotor. Through apertures are formed on the wheel mounting flange. Hollow pins, having a chamfered portion, are press-fit into the through apertures. The brake rotor is formed with insert apertures to receive the pins, at positions respectively corresponding to the hub bolts and pins. The brake rotor can be temporarily mounted on the wheel mounting flange by inserting or press-fitting the chamfered end sides of the pins into the insert apertures. | 08-11-2011 |
20110254356 | Wheel Bearing Apparatus Incorporated With A Wheel Speed Detecting Apparatus - A wheel speed detecting apparatus incorporating a wheel speed detecting apparatus has an inner ring axially secured on a wheel hub. A protecting cover, with a substantially dish-shaped configuration, is press-formed from a non-magnetic austenitic stainless steel sheet. The cover includes a cylindrical fitting portion adapted to be fit onto the outer member. A disc-shaped shielding portion extends radially inward from the fitting portion. A bottom portion extends from the shielding portion, via an inclined portion, to close the inner side end of the inner member. The protecting cover is positioned to abut against a stepped portion formed on the end face or the inner circumference of the outer member. | 10-20-2011 |
20130127235 | Wheel Bearing Apparatus For A Vehicle - A vehicle wheel bearing apparatus has an outer member and a constant velocity joint connected to a wheel hub. The wheel hub and the constant velocity joint outer joint member are axially detachably connected. An end face of the caulked portion has a flat surface. A cap is mounted on the caulked portion. The cap has a metal core press-formed of a corrosion resistant steel sheet with a generally ring shape having a substantially L-shaped cross-section and a molded portion. The molded portion is formed from synthetic resin and has an infinite number of micro indentations on its surface. The cap abuts against the end face of the caulked portion and the shoulder portion of the outer joint member. | 05-23-2013 |
