==LOW FRICTION SEALING DEVICE AND ASSOCIATED ROLLING BEARING - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240052888 titled 'LOW FRICTION SEALING DEVICE AND ASSOCIATED ROLLING BEARING

==Simplified Explanation==

- A rolling bearing consists of inner and outer rings, rolling elements, and a sealing device.
- The sealing device includes two shields, two sealing elements with sealing lips, and a channel between them.
- The channel is inclined at an acute angle to the common axis of symmetry of the shields.
- The first sealing element has a conical smooth lateral surface, while the second sealing element has a lateral surface with steps.

== Potential Applications ==
- Automotive industry
- Aerospace industry
- Industrial machinery

== Problems Solved ==
- Preventing contamination of rolling elements
- Extending the lifespan of the bearing
- Reducing maintenance requirements

== Benefits ==
- Improved sealing performance
- Enhanced durability
- Reduced friction and wear


==Original Abstract Submitted==

a rolling bearing includes an inner ring, an outer ring, a plurality of rolling elements housed between the inner ring and the outer ring, and a sealing device. the sealing device includes a first shield connected to the inner ring, a second shield connected to the outer ring to rotate therewith, a first sealing element connected to the second shield and provided with a sealing lip contacting the first shield, and a second sealing element connected to the first shield and facing a radially outer section of the first sealing element, defining a channel therebetween inclined at an acute angle to a common axis of symmetry of the shields and delimited between a conical smooth lateral surface of the first sealing element and a lateral surface of the second sealing element arranged opposite and parallel to the first lateral surface and provided with a plurality of steps.
