Title:
BEARING DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2008/007478
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A bearing device having an outer ring (11), an inner ring (12), rolling bodies (13) arranged between both rings, and a seal (15) attached to either the outer ring or the inner ring and extending toward the other. Because a temperature sensor (TS) is attached to the seal, the temperature of the seal directly in contact with a rotating ring can be directly measured. Accordingly, a sudden rise in the temperature measured by the sensor may indicate a possible occurrence of trouble of some kind, so that necessary action, such as an immediate stop of a device using the bearing device, can be taken before a distinct trouble actually occurs.
