Abstract

Abstract Bearing or roller bearing with information sensor, of the type comprising a stationary element carrying at least one magnetic field sensor device and one rotating element carrying a multipole magnetized ring coaxial to said moving element, which rotates in front of the sensor device and in which the ring is mounted in a support carried by said rotating element and is separated from the sensor device by an air gap, characterized in that the ring is provided with circumferentially distributed notches.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim 120 words
A bearing with an information sensor, said bearing comprising an outer ring carrying at least one magnetic field sensor device and an inner ring carrying a multipole magnetized ring coaxial to said inner ring, said magnetized ring being positioned so as to rotate in front of said at least one sensor device and separated from said sensor device by an air gap, and being mounted in a support ring carried by said inner ring, said magnetized ring also being provided with a plurality of circumferentially distributed spaces to provide areas of greater field intensity, wherein the plurality of circumferentially distributed spaces include at least one space extending radially completely through the magnetized ring and a plurality of circumferentially distributed notches.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 120 words
A bearing with an information sensor, said bearing comprising an outer ring carrying at least one magnetic field sensor device and an inner ring carrying a multipole magnetized ring coaxial to said inner ring, said magnetized ring being positioned so as to rotate in front of said at least one sensor device and separated from said sensor device by an air gap, and being mounted in a support ring carried by said inner ring, said magnetized ring also being provided with a plurality of circumferentially distributed spaces to provide areas of greater field intensity, wherein the plurality of circumferentially distributed spaces include at least one space extending radially completely through the magnetized ring and a plurality of circumferentially distributed notches.
