ROLLING BEARING ASSEMBLY WITH AN ENCODER WASHER AND A SENSOR, AND PROCESS FOR MANUFACTURING SUCH A ROLLING BEARING ASSEMBLY

摘要

This rolling bearing assembly (2) comprises a rolling bearing (4) with a first non rotating ring (42), a second ring (44) rotating with respect to the first ring around an axis of rotation (X4) and rolling bodies between the first and second ring. The assembly also comprises an encoder washer (6) fast in rotation with the second ring (44), and at least one sensor (8) adapted to detect a rotation parameter of the encoder washer (6), the sensor being located axially at the same level as the encoder washer (6). The rolling bearing assembly (2) also comprises mechanical setting means (14, 16) to adjust a radial distance between the sensor (8) and the encoder washer (6).
